Marriage can be a real killer.
One of the most critically acclaimed suspense writers of our time, New York Times bestseller Gillian Flynn takes that statement to its darkest place in this unputdownable masterpiece about a marriage gone terribly, terribly wrong. The Chicago Tribune proclaimed thather work “draws you in and keeps you reading with the force of a pure but nasty addiction.” Gone Girl ’s toxic mix of sharp-edged wit and deliciously chilling prose creates a nerve-fraying thriller that confounds you at every turn.
On a warm summer morning in North Carthage, Missouri, it is Nick and Amy Dunne’s fifth wedding anniversary. Presents are being wrapped and reservations are being made when Nick’s clever and beautiful wife disappears from their rented McMansion on the Mississippi River. Husband-of-the-Year Nick isn’t doing himself any favors with cringe-worthy daydreams about the slope and shape of his wife’s head, but passages from Amy's diary reveal the alpha-girl perfectionist could have put anyone dangerously on edge . Under mounting pressure from the police and the media—as well as Amy’s fiercely doting parents—the town golden boy parades an endless series of lies, deceits, and inappropriate behavior. Nick is oddly evasive, and he’s definitely bitter—but is he really a killer?
As the cops close in, every couple in town is soon wondering how well they know the one that they love. With his twin sister, Margo, at his side, Nick stands by his innocence. Trouble is, if Nick didn’t do it, where is that beautiful wife? And what was in that silvery gift box hidden in the back of her bedroom closet?
With herrazor-sharp writing and trademark psychological insight, Gillian Flynn delivers a fast-paced, devilishly dark, and ingeniously plotted thriller that confirms her status as one of the hottest writers around.
GILLIAN FLYNN is the author of the New York Times bestseller Dark Places, which was a New Yorker Reviewers’ Favorite, Weekend TODAY Top Summer Read, Publishers Weekly Best Book of 2009, and Chicago Tribune Favorite Fiction choice; and the Dagger Award winner Sharp Objects, which was an Edgar nominee for Best First novel, a BookSense pick, and a Barnes & Noble Discover selection. Her work has been published in twenty-eight countries. She lives in Chicago with her husband and son.
看消失的爱人之前,刚看完别相信任何人,差不多类型的小说,居然连翻译也是同一个人,看别相信任何人的时候我就觉得翻译太多问题,用字不准确,翻译太直白,还有错别字、乱码等等等等,现在做书的人都没有校验了吗?平铺直叙的把原文直接说出来,连倒装句都是直接翻译,完全看...
评分《消失的爱人》是本有意思的小说,因为写出了某种人与人相处的真相。之所以不说它是非常好的小说,因为它只写出了某种视角下的真相,并没有提供出路。当然解决问题不是文学的责任,这算不上缺点。 叔本华说:“生命是一团欲望,欲望不能满足便痛苦,满足便无...
评分近来微博上流传的一句话道出了爱情和婚姻的真谛:“世界上没有哪对夫妻是完全契合的,也没有永不倦怠的爱情,只是停停歇歇后,最初的梦想被打磨光滑后,悲观的人看到的是鹅卵石,乐观的人看到的是宝石。” 然而对尼克和艾米来说,他们看到的是一条正在张开大口吞噬自己的衔尾...
评分gone girl是本结构设计的很好的小说。这个设计就让人有阅读的乐趣。 故事一直顺着时间轴进行。但用了AB面的结构,可以在事件随时间开展的同时,增加更多的叙述纬度和视角。同时这种结构也给了作者很大的空间,去选择更有趣的方式来讲故事却不显得突兀。阅读的过程给人的感觉,...
评分坦白说,一直不太喜欢读电子版的书籍,总觉得和纸质版的书比起来少了那样一份难以言说的质感和韵味。但当一个重度推理迷在无聊养病的家中正愁无法消磨时光的时候,当你随手逛一下微博成了某种习惯然后突然发现了这样一部即将在纽约电影展开映的如此对你胃口的影片居然有图书原...
看完电影后下的,每天在上下班的地铁上看,竟然断断续续看了四个月…
评分Unconditional love doesn't exist. You have to be at your best all the time. It takes disciplines. Lesson learned.
评分Love is the world's infinite mutability; lies, hatred, murder even, are all knit up in it, it's the inevitable blossoming of its opposites, a magnificent rose smelling faintly of blood.
评分This book will catch you within 10 pages and forces you to binge reading until you're done, because it's the best seller type of book. But for all the gasping ups and downs and smart twists you sacrifices some reason... for example I never understood why Amy would be out of job in the first place... still looking forward to the movie tho.
