The beloved, bestselling international author of "The Alchemist" returns with another haunting novel--a thrilling journey into our constant fascination with the worlds of fame, fortune, and celebrity. A profound meditation on personal power and innocent dreams that are manipulated or undone by success, "The Winner Stands Alone" is set in the exciting worlds of fashion and cinema. Taking place over the course of twenty-four hours during the Cannes Film Festival, it is the story of Igor, a successful, driven Russian entrepreneur who will go to the darkest lengths to reclaim a lost love--his ex-wife, Ewa. Believing that his life with Ewa was divinely ordained, Igor once told her that he would destroy whole worlds to get her back. The conflict between an individual evil force and society emerges, and as the novel unfolds, morality is derailed. Meet the players and poseurs behind the scenes at Cannes--the "Superclass" of producers, actors, designers, and supermodels, as well as the aspiring starlets, has-been stars, and jaded hangers-on. Adroitly interweaving the characters' stories, Paulo Coelho uses his twelfth novel to paint an engrossing picture of a world overrun by glamour and excess, and shows us the possibly dire consequences of our obsession with fame.

A twisted book reflects the twisted world of fame,glamour and money,power....all is vanity
评分the world of glamor and vanity
评分A twisted book reflects the twisted world of fame,glamour and money,power....all is vanity
评分i dont think it is a real novel, actually rolls in it are all looking for their true inner side, and so do we when we read it.
评分So Cynical and full of clichés,像一个闯荡好莱坞但未能成功的学生写出来的作品。Coelho之前在the alchemist 中化腐朽为神奇的insight在这本书中也不见踪影。难道我读的是伪作?
这本小说依然充满了柯艾略的各种元素:贝都因人、沙漠、世界的一部分、预兆、命运、心灵,诸如此类。保罗·柯艾略被称为畅销书作家,但这样的结局一点也不像,不太了解畅销书市场是否跟商业电影一样忠于大团圆收场,如果这是一部商业电影,很有可能不会是雅维茨的那个“五分之...
评分说不像保罗的风格,倒也未必。故事简单易懂,篇章衔接紧凑。只是我们看保罗的作品往往不会满足于这多少万字故事的内容,里面一定还有更深的寓意。这也是我疑问所在。 在“写照”篇中保罗明确提出了这本书的立意——“我想记录时代的全景,于是写下了这本书”。可是,时代的全...
评分读这本书,富豪的杀人心理不是我所关注的,而作者对娱乐圈各种剖析是最吸引人的地方,比如电影是如何发布,慈善晚宴是怎么回事情,模特风光背后是怎样的故事,时尚圈光鲜背后又是怎样的。。。。保罗好像潜伏在这个圈子里,把一切表面华丽的东西揭示得干干净净。从这个角度来说...
评分柯艾略利用“巧合”和“宿命”,将多线叙述,用连环杀人案纠缠在一起,越往下读,越感觉到撼动。 孤独,是这个名利场上的名字。 女演员也好,名演员也好,女模特也好,设计师也好,都想尽办法跻身上流社会。 而这盛大的宴会,一推开门,却充斥着深深的无聊...
评分在保罗科埃略的小说中,这一本的情节性应该是最强的了。 从《牧羊少年奇幻之旅》到《维罗妮卡决定去死》,保罗科埃略似乎都喜欢把作品集中在一个人物或者一个人物的一个任务之中,并不涉及太多的他人,而且所有的故事都仿佛是为了讲述一个现代寓言。 而在这本书里,作者似乎想...
