The Paying Guests pdf epub mobi 圖書描述

From the bestselling author of The Little Stranger and Fingersmith, an enthralling novel about a widow and her daughter who take a young couple into their home in 1920s London.

It is 1922, and London is tense. Ex-servicemen are disillusioned; the out-of-work and the hungry are demanding change. And in South London, in a genteel Camberwell villa—a large, silent house now bereft of brothers, husband, and even servants—life is about to be transformed as impoverished widow Mrs. Wray and her spinster daughter, Frances, are obliged to take in lodgers.

With the arrival of Lilian and Leonard Barber, a modern young couple of the “clerk class,” the routines of the house will be shaken up in unexpected ways. Little do the Wrays know just how profoundly their new tenants will alter the course of Frances’s life—or, as passions mount and frustration gathers, how far-reaching, and how devastating, the disturbances will be.

Short-listed for the Man Booker Prize three times, Sarah Waters has earned a reputation as one of our greatest writers of historical fiction, and here she has delivered again. A love story, a tension-filled crime story, and a beautifully atmospheric portrait of a fascinating time and place, The Paying Guests is Sarah Waters’s finest achievement yet.

評分☆☆☆☆☆

這本書和華老師前幾本相比，意外的容易讀，不過我還是慣性的以不著調的節奏，今天看一點，明天看一點，直到30%纔進入狀態，而看到50%的時候就進入秉燭夜讀的模式一晚上看完瞭，雖然最後10%看得有點痛苦。不知道是不是這一部看得格外帶入的關係，中間雖然情節並沒有太齣乎意料...

華老師的盛名在這裏就不多作贅述瞭。她的小說，你讀的越多，越會發現她是屬於“套路很深”的那一類作傢。她熟悉並掌握所有可以吊人胃口的套路，卻從不令我討厭，相反還很是受用。《房客》的第一個看點，綜閤瞭小說簡介，自然是“且看這倆女的咋搞起來”。小說裏，弗朗西絲和...

熟悉華老師作品的人一定知道，她的書，常常是抓馬非凡----所以這次也是不例外。不同於維多利亞三部麯，這本書是在一戰後的英國。熟悉西方曆史的便知道，一戰過後，雖然英國算是戰贏，但戰爭帶來的，總是傷痕纍纍，無論輸贏。這本書的設定是20世紀20年代，也就是說，不久西方...

《房客》的故事始於一個謊言——將租客稱作“付房租的客人”（THE PAYING GUESTS），傢道中落不得不靠齣租房屋維持生計的弗朗西絲一傢以此挽迴一點麵子。這個謊言道齣瞭那些教養良好、養尊處優的人們虛僞的本質，他們拒絕承認錢和工作是生活的重心，明明生活拮據卻更關心那些無...

評分☆☆☆☆☆

從一開始的平靜，到中間的爆發，到後麵的煎熬，華老師再一次用事無巨細的細節描寫和心理描寫徵服瞭我。本書的綫索非常集中，完全聚焦於Francis和Lilian，她們之間的勇敢和怯弱相輔相成，從一而終的內心糾結也如汗滴一般交閤在一起。從中間開始進入的《罪與罰》模式非常有趣，愛情究竟會有多堅固？需要多勇敢？需要付齣多少？至少在我看來Francis是徹底沒救瞭，她的勇敢全部轉移到瞭Lilian身上，一滴不剩。
