The Plague of Doves pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載 2024
Louise Erdrich's mesmerizing new novel, her first in almost three years, centers on a compelling mystery. The unsolved murder of a farm family haunts the small, white, off-reservation town of Pluto, North Dakota. The vengeance exacted for this crime and the subsequent distortions of truth transform the lives of Ojibwe living on the nearby reservation and shape the passions of both communities for the next generation. The descendants of Ojibwe and white intermarry, their lives intertwine; only the youngest generation, of mixed blood, remains unaware of the role the past continues to play in their lives. Evelina Harp is a witty, ambitious young girl, part Ojibwe, part white, who is prone to falling hopelessly in love. Mooshum, Evelina's grandfather, is a seductive storyteller, a repository of family and tribal history with an all-too-intimate knowledge of the violent past. Nobody understands the weight of historical injustice better than Judge Antone Bazil Coutts, a thoughtful mixed blood who witnesses the lives of those who appear before him, and whose own love life reflects the entire history of the territory. In distinct and winning voices, Erdrich's narrators unravel the stories of different generations and families in this corner of North Dakota. Bound by love, torn by history, the two communities' collective stories finally come together in a wrenching truth revealed in the novel's final pages. The Plague of Doves is one of the major achievements of Louise Erdrich's considerable oeuvre, a quintessentially American story and the most complex and original of her books.

評分你集过邮吗?美国作家路易丝·厄德里克的小说《鸽灾》中有人感慨:集邮也有阴暗面,所有的集邮爱好者都会有自己的喜好,这可能是个祸端!譬如小说中的奥克塔夫喜欢错版的邮票、加印的邮票,稀奇古怪的邮票,发展到后来,是灾难中幸存下来的有缺陷的邮票。水渍、破损、血迹,这...
評分对于一本书来说,取一个贴切并且能够吸引眼球的书名总是很难的。不是每本书都能仅凭书名就再现出一种确切的意象,对小说而言尤其如此。而在短篇小说的集合里,如何使用一个简单的短语将经过编排的故事串联在一起,把原本破碎的叙述拼贴起来,则更是鲜少有人成功的尝试。但在路...
