评分冷漠•忽视•伤害•报复 文:蓝文青 这是一组可以切分的镜头: 第一个:在一个阳光灿烂的日子里,正午时分,一个三岁左右没有人陪伴的孤单幼儿独自沿着河岸走,“脸上沾满了巧克力,邋里邋遢的”,途径他身边的加文“心里只想着自己碎成渣的幸福”,一丁点也没想为何这...
评分我想,成名作家最大的烦恼莫过于如何延续或是突破自我的创作生涯,他或她们不喜欢也不希望当自己的新作品呈现给读者时,所得到的反馈是令人失望的自我重复,渐而陷入江郎才尽的一潭死水,这对于任何一位作者而言都是不得不面对的挑战。显而易见,新作品担负的重任不仅要表现出...
评分不可否认,评分极低,在英美的网站上得分甚至不如《五十度灰》,只有在加拿大以及德国、意大利、西班牙等少数欧洲国家勉强拿到三星半,其余的多为三星。 罗琳的新书为什么会出现如此大的落差呢?分析起来,原因如下: (1)罗琳原本是一个畅销书作家,写的是类型小说,阅读性...

When Barry Fairweather dies unexpectedly in his early forties, the little town of Pagford is left in shock. Pagford is, seemingly, an English idyll, with a cobbled market square and an ancient abbey, but what lies behind the pretty façade is a town at war. Rich at war with poor, teenagers at war with their parents, wives at war with their husbands, teachers at war with their pupils…. Pagford is not what it first seems. And the empty seat left by Barry on the town’s council soon becomes the catalyst for the biggest war the town has yet seen. Who will triumph in an election fraught with passion, duplicity and unexpected revelations? Blackly comic, thought-provoking and constantly surprising, The Casual Vacancy is J.K. Rowling’s first novel for adults.
