MGB officer Leo is a man who never questions the Party Line. He arrests whomever he is told to arrest. He dismisses the horrific death of a young boy because he is told to, because he believes the Party stance that there can be no murder in Communist Russia. Leo is the perfect soldier of the regime. But suddenly his confidence that everything he does serves a great good is shaken. He is forced to watch a man he knows to be innocent be brutally tortured. And then he is told to arrest his own wife. Leo understands how the State works: Trust and check, but check particularly on those we trust. He faces a stark choice: his wife or his life. And still the killings of children continue...

Child 44 followed-up by The Secret Speech (2009)and Agent 6 (2011).
叙述非常流畅,也许太流畅了,阅读时几乎不用动大脑,作者把方方面面都交代得太清楚了。所以,和严肃文学比,这本书和所有畅销书一样拥有完美的story,但缺失narrative。另,故事里有两个显而易见的卖点:1)英国式的腐; 2)欧美对苏联的政治意淫(与《红色十月号》一个路子)。
评分完全放不下来的小说!即便知道有主角光环,全程也都忍不住担心这对夫妻的命运。画面感非常强,每章结尾都很有力,如果改成电视剧一定好看死了。
评分结尾不做评价,或者说不对故事作为推理小说必须要收尾并自圆其说的后半部分展开作评价。整部小说的前半段超级正点——披着推理小说的羊皮素描的是斯大林主义下苏联社会的整个残酷写实,还写的这么波澜不惊真是出色的写作手法。男主人公在几番失意后仍坚定对共产主义及其社会体制的信念,即使遭受到妻子的坦白后竟然能够作出这样的自我反省,这一段最让人印象深刻,赞叹
评分这侦探小说像1984真实版,关于连环杀人案的内容其实挺少的,而且情节透露比较早,略好猜,2/3的是后男主父母那封信基本可以让人联想前因后果。剧情完全是靠奇葩的基情(误 其实是恶意 来推动的。喜欢女主角蛮讨喜的,机智勇敢而且还比较果断。
评分其实挺土气一个故事,也说不上有多恐怖吧,不过用来练练阅读速度还是蛮合适的,也挺抓人的,Amazon特价29也挺合适的……
被介绍吸引来看的,讲的是一个发生在前苏联时代的连环谋杀案。案件的侦破受当时时代的局限变得十分之棘手,“国家不承认这种案件。”调查的人也因此陷入危机。由此整本书的后半部分就变成主角为了调查案件所经历的惊险逃亡。 感觉情节上还是蛮紧凑刺激的,十分适合作为...

评分虽然还没全部看完,但感觉本书并不像豆瓣上评价得那么出色,只能说是情节还算可以吧,写得的确是比较生动。但有些看法不说不快。 感觉作者把50年代的苏联社会描写的太黑暗和残酷了,好象全社会完全被克格勃控制了似的,一片绝望好象人间地狱,我个人对此表示怀疑,...
评分有书评把这本和勒卡雷比,这必须是溢美之词,也许是期望太高,我想说说问题。 1,前半部分很好,尤其是里奥接受考验的部分之前,有人说对苏联的状态描述过份夸张,但第一我们没经历过没细考据过不敢断言,第二其实那不重要,这本书再怎么说也是娱乐小说而不是历史反思,为了故...
