具体描述

In this magically evocative novel, William Maxwell explores the enigmatic gravity of the past, which compels us to keep explaining it even as it makes liars out of us every time we try. On a winter morning in the 1920s, a shot rings out on a farm in rural Illinois. A man named Lloyd Wilson has been killed. And the tenuous friendship between two lonely teenagers—one privileged yet neglected, the other a troubled farm boy—has been shattered.Fifty years later, one of those boys—now a grown man—tries to reconstruct the events that led up to the murder. In doing so, he is inevitably drawn back to his lost friend Cletus, who has the misfortune of being the son of Wilson's killer and who in the months before witnessed things that Maxwell's narrator can only guess at. Out of memory and imagination, the surmises of children and the destructive passions of their parents, Maxwell creates a luminous American classic of youth and loss.

当年的“犹他双煞”马龙与斯托克顿、湖人“OK组合”奥尼尔与科比早晚都要一拍两散，甚至包括火箭的“姚麦组合”也必然有那么一天，因为天下没有永远的拍档，也许今天，或者后天，尽管不是同年同月同日走到一起，但一定都会同年同月同日一拍两散。尽管分开，我相信他们还是兄...

So that instead of being stuck there he could go on and by the grace of God leas his own life, undestroyed by what was not his doing.
