"If a book had to be praised for its merits in defining the anxieties of our post-9/11 society, then Mohsin Hamid's The Reluctant Fundamentalist would be the one to win" --This text refers to the Paperback edition.
"I read Mohsin Hamid's The Reluctant Fundamentalist with increasing admiration. It is beautifully written - what a joy it is to find such intelligent prose, such clarity of thought and exposition - and superbly constructed. The author has managed to tighten the screw of suspense almost without our being aware it is happening, and the result is a tale of enormous tension. I read a lot of thrillers - or rather I start reading a lot of thrillers, and put most of them down - but this is more exciting than any thriller I've read for a long time, as well as being a subtle and elegant analysis of the state of our world today. I was enormously impressed" --This text refers to the Paperback edition.
"An elegant, artful, haunting novella - a deceptively simple narrative that is in fact deeply ambiguous" --This text refers to the Paperback edition.
"From the start, I was gripped...There's an almost delightful allegorical symmetry to the flow of events, as well as a sensuousness and finish that might belong to some other form of art: music, perhaps...Hamid manages marvellously well in creating a novel that's rendered entirely in terms of the spoken word, and governed by the shape of what's evaded or not uttered" --This text refers to the Paperback edition.
"A fantastic piece of work, superbly considered and controlled, with a lovely stillness and wisdom at its heart"
--This text refers to the Paperback edition.

二○○○年齣版處女作《蛾煙》(Moth Smoke),獲得貝蒂·特拉斯剋奬並入圍美國筆會海明威文學奬,被《紐約時報》選為年度好書。二○○七年齣版《拉閤爾茶館的陌生人》,入圍布剋奬最終決選。
中文書名取作拉合爾茶館的陌生人其實跟原書名完全不同,不過對中文讀者而言,顯然是這個名字比較更能討喜、親近。拉合爾 (Lahore) 在那裡?它是巴基斯坦的第二大城市,人口約300萬,它是蒙兀兒王朝的首都,現存有世界最大的清真寺之一。 書一開始就是一名巴基斯坦男子...
評分很有趣的一本小说,当然也沉重,发人心省。 读完后不知怎么就想起了beyond的《光辉岁月》。 书中有很多映射和暗喻。 Changez对Erica的感情就暗喻世界上一些国家与美国的复杂关系,一时一个样。 Erica说变就变,难以捉摸。Changez对自身身份的思考和自己祖国的担忧等等也映射了...

評分同样是成长的故事,印巴:不离不弃的两个孩子,梦醒梦灭中相守。 贫民窟展现了破败的第三世界、美女、金钱和无尽的巧合。童话世界里太阳总会升起坏人总会被打败,王子和公主从此过上了幸福美满的生活…好片是好片,动人的票房收入会不会也有金融海啸一份功劳。茶馆里...
