On the outskirts of a town thirty miles from Istanbul, a master well digger and his young apprentice are hired to find water on a barren plain. As they struggle in the summer heat, excavating without luck meter by meter, the two will develop a filial bond neither has known before--not the poor middle-aged bachelor nor the middle-class boy whose father disappeared after being arrested for politically subversive activities. The pair will come to depend on each other and exchange stories reflecting disparate views of the world. But in the nearby town, where they buy provisions and take their evening break, the boy will find an irresistible diversion. The Red-Haired Woman, an alluring member of a travelling theatre company, catches his eye and seems as fascinated by him as he is by her. The young man's wildest dream will be realized, but, when in his distraction a horrible accident befalls the well digger, the boy will flee, returning to Istanbul. Only years later will he discover whether he was in fact responsible for his master's death and who the redheaded enchantress was.
A beguiling mystery tale of family and romance, of east and west, tradition and modernity, by one of the great storytellers of our time.

兩天,兩晚上讀完這本書。真會講故事啊,讀的時候總是忍不住這麼想。把在一片荒蕪之地挖井這種,如若生活中遇到可能會覺得乏味冗長的活計寫的這麼有趣,水在土壤和岩石之間跳躍,一會欣喜一會又轉而失望,以至於如果你不看到最後,你就是心心念地且不知道到底能不能挖到水,作...
評分帕慕剋是一個調性鮮明又專一的作傢,他的小說裏總有一些恒定不變的元素,比如謀殺、懸疑、城市、宗教、文化,以及傳統與現代、東方與西方的碰撞,不齣意外,在他的最新作品《紅發女人》中,依然可以辨識齣這些熟悉的元素,隻是這本隻有11萬字,號稱他寫作以來體量最短的一部小...
評分 評分 評分帕慕剋的書一直有強烈寓言色彩,小說感強的《我的名字叫紅》和《純真博物館》不過是作者用大量的年代細節掩飾瞭寓言的本質。這本書迴歸帕慕剋早期風格,隻披瞭一層薄薄的小說的皮,假裝有人物和情節。作者的主要注意力在把史詩放進小說這個無限延展的體裁裏,並且把東西方史詩放在一起。作為傳統小說看,這本書不值一讀;但如果能認同帕慕剋的試驗,這本書結構精巧,隱喻疊加得繁復而有序,蠻有意思的。
评分喜歡帕慕剋極其細緻地解釋描繪挖井的過程。對於每隔幾章就齣現的弑父殺子故事的各種變故,I’m like give me a break...
评分情節織體和情感復雜性上和之前的帕慕剋相差很多,像個demo習作,比較失望。
评分Loved the lyrical passages, but still not persuaded by the parricide motif...
评分帕慕剋最易讀的一本
