具体描述
Set in an un-named city but with an astonishing, breath-shorteningly palpable sense of time and place Milkman is a tale of gossip and hearsay, silence and deliberate deafness. The story of inaction with enormous consequences and decisions that are never made, but for which people are judged and punished.
Middle sister is our protagonist. She is busy attempting to keep her mother from discovering her nearly-boyfriend and to keep everyone in the dark about her encounter with milkman (which she herself for the life of her cannot work out how it came about). But when first brother-in-law, who of course had sniffed it out, told his wife, her first sister, to tell her mother to come and have a talk with her, middle sister becomes ‘interesting’. The last thing she ever wanted to be. To be interesting is to be noticed and to be noticed is dangerous…

一个充满暴力的世界。 小说里的人物、地点都不具名，但无不隐射当今社会，或者说，1970年代北爱的问题，现在依然存在。 “我”一直在忍受他人强加给自己的伤害（不仅仅是性骚扰，还有各种舆论压力和误解），导致自我的压抑，小说所描写的更是一个充满暴力的社会，然而，这些“暴力”却并不是一开始就被认定或辨别为“暴力”。更在通过主人公对世界的观察、对自我的剖析中，厘清“暴力”是什么，提问我们应该怎么面对它。几乎是大长段，如果有耐心读完，大概会有惊喜吧……
评分故意啰嗦的语言，也是一种风格。。。剧情走向真的很迷
评分需要有足够的耐心慢慢进入安娜•伯恩斯的世界，不仅仅是我与送奶员之间的关系，还有男权，女性，国家等叙事。读了第一章和第二章部分，感觉很好。
评分获奖是政治大过文学？主角的日常生活对我们来说是分裂地区的奇景。
评分读了一部分，暂弃。Burns的语言太缠绕，加上小说中的人物、身份、地点甚至历史背景都没有明确的指称。结构松散，情节缓滞，常常夹杂着Middle sister意识流式的回忆以及对历史、政治、两性、宗教......的思考。事实上，只要读上两页你就可以很明确地感知到作者非常独特的叙事音色和措辞技巧。这是一本需要时间和耐心消化的书，等回看后二次评分。
