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).
Best criminal novel ever read!!! The language was extremely absorbing that it took the story to another level.
评分叙述非常流畅,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Leo,你被这么多变态深深地爱着你还有什么不满意的啊,不要再幻灭了,好好为人民服务吧
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finally finished,awesome thriller
首先我必须要表达对该书作者汤姆•罗伯•史密斯的敬意,虽然这是他的处女作却足够让很多悬疑小说名家汗颜了,或者该这么说,单单只是以悬疑恐怖推理这些标签来定义这部小说的恐怕有些不太适合,大部分以上的类型小说都很难与时代有强烈的契合感,换句话说那些小说可以随意...
评分“走进农舍,男孩的尸体不见了。炉子上放着一个大锅,锅里在咕噜咕噜冒泡,不知炖着什么。安娜领着他(主人公帕维尔)坐到炉旁,史蒂芬盛满满的一碗递给他。他低头盯着这碗热气腾腾的汤:碗里漂着压碎的橡实,关节和一条条的肉,史蒂芬和安娜看着他,史蒂芬说道:‘你本来会死...
评分翻译基本靠谱,从风格上来说,本书应该适用简短有力的句子,可有可无的字眼都应该删掉,如果译文能更简洁一点会更好。 可能美中不足的地方在于有些名词的翻译不太好。第96页提到的“尼基塔·克鲁什切夫”,其实就是赫鲁晓夫,此处的人名译法似乎不妥(奇怪的是本书结尾处对赫鲁...

评分标题可能有点儿危言耸听,但这就是我读完《44号孩子》的第一感觉。 这本书的前半部分无可挑剔,极权主义对人性的异化和压迫所制造出的阴冷和压抑感觉几乎要溢出书来,这些控诉并不是简单的套路说教,而是通过非常精彩流畅好看的剧情来呈现的,宛如《1984》和《窃听...
