Markus Zusak is the author of five books, including the international bestseller, The Book Thief , which spent more than a decade on the New York Times bestseller list, and is translated into more than forty languages – establishing Zusak as one of the most successful authors to come out of Australia.
To date, Zusak has held the number one position at Amazon.com, Amazon.co.uk, the New York Times bestseller list, as well as in countries across South America, Europe and Asia.
His books, The Underdog, Fighting Ruben Wolfe, When Dogs Cry (also titled Getting the Girl ), The Messenger (or I am the Messenger ) and The Book Thief have been awarded numerous honours ranging from literary prizes to readers choice awards to prizes voted on by booksellers.
Zusak’s much-anticipated new novel, Bridge of Clay , is set for release in October 2018 in the USA, the UK and Australia, with foreign translations to follow.
It’s just a small story really, about among other things: a girl, some words, an accordionist, some fanatical Germans, a Jewish fist-fighter, and quite a lot of thievery. . . .
Set during World War II in Germany, Markus Zusak’s groundbreaking new novel is the story of Liesel Meminger, a foster girl living outside of Munich. Liesel scratches out a meager existence for herself by stealing when she encounters something she can’t resist–books. With the help of her accordion-playing foster father, she learns to read and shares her stolen books with her neighbors during bombing raids as well as with the Jewish man hidden in her basement before he is marched to Dachau.
This is an unforgettable story about the ability of books to feed the soul.
From the Hardcover edition.

評分即使從死神的眼光看來,最冷漠殘忍的時代也不乏溫情。 故事主要集中在1939年到1943年,從戰爭開始到戰爭高峰。莉塞爾.梅明格,從十歲到十四歲,由童年到少女。親情,友情,朦朧的愛情,生離,死彆,恐懼,歡樂,交雜而來。在死神的娓娓道來中,人性的美好與罪惡緩緩展開。 在戰...
評分讀完《偷書賊》想到瞭不久前來北京的以色列作傢阿摩司·奧茲。他在訪談中對我說,小時候,他的傢鄉飽受戰爭的磨難,他經常自己一個人躲在圖書館裏,想變成一本書,安靜地放在書架上,那樣他就安全瞭。雖然童年飽受戰爭的磨難,但他慶幸自己沒有因此而變得抱怨、仇恨和惡毒,多...
評分用文字喂養的靈魂,有死神作證 於是 作者蘇薩剋不畏懼泄露結局。如果死亡就是結局,那就不值得保密。他明確的藉用小說的空間來錶明——人和事是如何走到瞭那個眾所周知的結局,纔是值得書寫和保衛的。在這個意義上說,小說中的“預言式”陳述從頭至尾都比比皆是,誰將在多少...
