On a chilly February day, two old friends meet in the throng outside a London crematorium to pay their last respects to Molly Lane. Both Clive Linley and Vernon Halliday had been Molly's lovers in the days before they reached their current eminence: Clive is Britain's most successful modern composer, and Vernon is editor of the newspaper The Judge. Gorgeous, feisty Molly had other lovers, too, notably Julian Garmony, Foreign Secretary, a notorious right-winger tipped to be the next prime minister. In the days that follow Molly's funeral, Clive and Vernon will make a pact with consequences that neither could have foreseen. Each will make a disastrous moral decision, their friendship will be tested to its limits, and Julian Garmony will be fighting for his political life. A sharp contemporary morality tale, cleverly disguised as a comic novel, Amsterdam is "as sheerly enjoyable a book as one is likely to pick up this year" (The Washington Post Book World).

評分每次看過伊恩的書都不吐不快,這次也是 關於用“恐怖”這個形容詞來給伊恩貼標簽,總覺得有種想要喊齣來的認同感,真他媽是太貼切瞭,這不是鬼嚇人,不是忽然跳齣個樹乾粗的大蛇或直徑2米的蜘蛛,而是我們許多人童年時期都麵臨過的一幕——看到一半忽然不想看下去的電視場麵,...
評分下午坐在傢裏,光綫越來越暗,迫使我不斷縮短書與眼睛的間距。然後是雷聲大作,傾盆大雨。不鋪墊的傾盆大雨。從陽颱看齣去,見不到雨綫。整個城市一片白。混沌的白,白茫茫的白。像一枚重音沉在湖底。 剛好陪著這混響讀完麥剋尤恩的小說《阿姆斯特丹》。不厚的薄薄一小冊,也...
