Margaret Atwood puts the human heart to the ultimate test in an utterly brilliant new novel that is as visionary as The Handmaid's Tale and as richly imagined as The Blind Assassin.
Stan and Charmaine are a married couple trying to stay afloat in the midst of an economic and social collapse. Job loss has forced them to live in their car, leaving them vulnerable to roving gangs. They desperately need to turn their situation around—and fast. The Positron Project in the town of Consilience seems to be the answer to their prayers. No one is unemployed and everyone gets a comfortable, clean house to live in . . . for six months out of the year. On alternating months, residents of Consilience must leave their homes and function as inmates in the Positron prison system. Once their month of service in the prison is completed, they can return to their "civilian" homes.
At first, this doesn't seem like too much of a sacrifice to make in order to have a roof over one's head and food to eat. But when Charmaine becomes romantically involved with the man who lives in their house during the months when she and Stan are in the prison, a series of troubling events unfolds, putting Stan's life in danger. With each passing day, Positron looks less like a prayer answered and more like a chilling prophecy fulfilled.
后面全是乱来啊。。。不过这种神经病幽默感好合我胃口。。。。
评分后面全是乱来啊。。。不过这种神经病幽默感好合我胃口。。。。
评分反乌托邦题材的小说看多了就慢慢觉得都是一个风格,故事前后的节奏有点脱节,许多设定也不够巧妙,最后一百页左右基本是耐着性子读完的,如果没有很多闲散时间的话并不是很推荐这本书~
评分Fairy tale.
评分故事前半段节奏挺慢的 后半段一直在赶 很多人物背景都没交代 核心阴谋又忒荒诞…
