"I'm Thinking of Ending Things is one of the best debut novels I've ever read. Iain Reid has crafted a tight, ferocious little book, with a persistent tenor of suspense that tightens and mounts toward its visionary, harrowing final pages" (Scott Heim, award-winning author of Mysterious Skin and We Disappear).
You will be scared. But you won’t know why…
I’m thinking of ending things. Once this thought arrives, it stays. It sticks. It lingers. It’s always there. Always.
Jake once said, “Sometimes a thought is closer to truth, to reality, than an action. You can say anything, you can do anything, but you can’t fake a thought.”
And here’s what I’m thinking: I don’t want to be here.
In this smart, suspenseful, and intense literary thriller, debut novelist Iain Reid explores the depths of the human psyche, questioning consciousness, free will, the value of relationships, fear, and the limitations of solitude. Reminiscent of Jose Saramago’s early work, Michel Faber’s cult classic Under the Skin, and Lionel Shriver’s We Need to Talk about Kevin, I’m Thinking of Ending Things is an edgy, haunting debut. Tense, gripping, and atmospheric, this novel pulls you in from the very first page…and never lets you go.
伊恩·里德(IAIN REID )加拿大天才作家、先锋编剧,1981年生于渥太华。
伊恩•里德曾为加拿大广播公司创作剧本,亦有作品散见于《纽约客》《环球邮报》等报刊。著有非虚构作品《一只鸟的选择》《运气的真相》。其中《运气的真相》为《环球邮报》2013年年度好书。
《我想结束这一切》是伊恩的首部长篇小说,该书一改他之前轻松幽默、淡然暖心的风格,挑战人们舒适极限,将有关自我归属、个体与群体的哲学探讨融入黑色幻想中,讲述了一个分裂、扭曲、极具哥特风的个人悲剧。
Audible 版本其实做的很好,编排和 voice acting 都不错,但奈何故事底子还是弱了点,心惊胆战了半天等来一个“meh” ¯(ツ)/¯ (但其实真的也还行了,无聊的话可以听一下????

评分挺好读也挺絮叨的。前半部分很吓人,有两个恐怖的点,读到第一个时还想“啊好俗套的都市传说”,第二个就真的吓出了鸡皮疙瘩,遗憾的是这两个点并未得到解答,就只是个莫名其妙的噱头而已。故事最后的转折挺突然,那几页密密麻麻的“What are you waiting for?”营造了很强的错乱氛围。最终的谜底不算是个好的处理,有点失望,但读完再重头看,又觉得挺难过,原来这是一个关于孤独的故事。挺适合拍成电影的。等考夫曼的成片。
评分I find it really stupid to subvert all my former presumptions when it comes to end????(my problem) and I can hardly get what the author wants to say about loneliness. But the imagination is quite bold and fascinating.
评分3.75/5 Unpredictable and increasingly bizarre, Iain Reid's literary debut defies, distorts and warps the reality as we know it, determined to take the reader on a wild ride. Evocative of Ishiguro's Pale View of Hill, the plot is so smartly constructed but its smartness might've tempered with the delivery of the final reveal which seemed confusing.
惊悚、恐怖、猎奇、怪诞……一直是人们用以寻求精神刺激的手段。铃木光司曾经说过:“恐惧作为人类的正常感情之一,麻木掉的话是不会对人的正常生活有正面影响的”,因此,在安全的环境下体验危机心理激起,能让人们获得大脑皮层触电般的快感。 激发肾上腺素分泌的元素,粗暴点...
