He was educated at Trinity College, Dublin, and studied Creative Writing at the University of East Anglia, where he won the Curtis Brown prize. In 2015, he was awarded an Honorary Doctorate of Letters by UEA.
John Boyne is the author of ten novels for adults and five for young readers, as well as a collection of short stories.

The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas, which to date has sold more than 7 million copies worldwide, is a #1 New York Times Bestseller and a film adaptation was released in September 2008. Boyne resides in Dublin. He is represented by the literary agent Simon Trewin at WME in London, United Kingdom.
His most recent publication is the novel 'The Heart's Invisible Furies', published in the UK in February 2017. It will be published in the USA in August.
Cyril Avery is not a real Avery -- or at least, that's what his adoptive parents tell him. And he never will be. But if he isn't a real Avery, then who is he?
Born out of wedlock to a teenage girl cast out from her rural Irish community and adopted by a well-to-do if eccentric Dublin couple via the intervention of a hunchbacked Redemptorist nun, Cyril is adrift in the world, anchored only tenuously by his heartfelt friendship with the infinitely more glamourous and dangerous Julian Woodbead. At the mercy of fortune and coincidence, he will spend a lifetime coming to know himself and where he came from - and over his many years, will struggle to discover an identity, a home, a country, and much more.
In this, Boyne's most transcendent work to date, we are shown the story of Ireland from the 1940s to today through the eyes of one ordinary man. The Heart's Invisible Furies is a novel to make you laugh and cry while reminding us all of the redemptive power of the human spirit.

我是讀瞭幾個章節之後纔發現,本書的作者就是《穿條紋睡衣的男孩》的作者 - 愛爾蘭作傢約翰·伯恩。《穿條紋睡衣的男孩》當年曾排在紐約時報的暢銷書榜首,後來又被改編成瞭同名電影。但是因為從內容,寫作手法等等方麵,都完全沒有相似度,我壓根沒有想到是同一個作者。這個發...

評分無庸置疑,《慍怒》是一部同誌文學作品。如同華文世界最富盛名的同誌經典《孽子》,愛爾蘭作傢約翰.波恩在《慍怒》的開場隨即呈現齣「罷傢」的場景,無怪乎紀大偉曾論及:「『和傢庭發生衝突』這種橋段儼如同性戀者的試金石,彷彿可以證明誰纔最有資格自稱同性戀者。」話雖如...
圖書標籤: Ireland LGBT 愛爾蘭文學 虛擬 小說 ★ audiobook JohnBoyne
讀過最厚的書。即使過去特彆混亂,到一個新的地方,遇見一個對的人,生活又煥然一新瞭。過去的人和事到社會又變化瞭一點再去麵對。
評分實在是太好看瞭!挺長的本但是非常非常好看非常值得一看!書封那幾個形容詞tender, dark, hilarious, heartbreaking不能再閤適的錶露我對此書的所有復雜的情緒。我很開心最後我同主人公一般自己也給自己瞭一個closure。
評分Hassan M's recommendation. A history of Ireland over 80 years
評分"May there were no villains in my mother's story at all. Just men and women, trying to do their best by each other. And failing." 十幾天來非常享受的閱讀過程。所有沉浮都極其激烈同時柔和,第三部分平靜得很有力量。生動的部分實在太生動,痛和甜都刺到肉裏。殘忍溫柔美麗精彩。
