Sarah Waters was born in Wales in 1966. She has been shortlisted for the Man Booker and Orange prizes and three of her four novels have been adapted for television.
After her award-winning trilogy of Victorian novels, Sarah Waters turned to the 1940s and wrote THE NIGHT WATCH, a tender and tragic novel set against the backdrop of wartime Britain. Shortlisted for both the Orange and the Man Booker, it went straight to number one in the bestseller chart. In a dusty post-war summer in rural Warwickshire, a doctor is called to a patient at Hundreds Hall. Home to the Ayres family for over two centuries, the Georgian house, once grand and handsome, is now in decline, its masonry crumbling, its gardens choked with weeds, the clock in its stable yard permanently fixed at twenty to nine. But are the Ayreses haunted by something more sinister than a dying way of life? Little does Dr Faraday know how closely, and how terrifyingly, their story is about to become entwined with his. Prepare yourself. From this wonderful writer who continues to astonish us, now comes a chilling ghost story.

2011年轉眼就過去瞭,真沒想到這一年最讓我難以釋懷的書竟是薩拉·沃特斯的《小小陌生人》。當然這可能跟《唐頓莊園》的熱播相關:一戰前英國仍森嚴的等級製度,樓上樓下穿插交錯,時代變遷中貴族的衰落和平民的崛起,人心的邊角溝坎細節老道,再加上視感美輪美奐的布景道具服...
圖書標籤: 小說 SarahWaters 英國 原版 懸疑 外國文學 中長篇 英文
半個月的讀程每天沉浸在陰冷又讓人興奮的氛圍裏。中間部分真讓我晚上不敢看。雖然不是靠懸疑邏輯取勝,但我更愛它多麵的解讀。我偏愛的人物形象部分塑造得也很成功。法拉第醫生不是一個可信和可愛的人,他在接近房子和愛上卡羅琳的過程中,不自覺地掂量算計。開放式的結尾我很喜歡。
評分哥特式,莊園,舊式貴族,精神分析心理學,不一樣的Sarah waters,推薦。
評分慢動作嚇人。如果耐得住性子,到12章開始,劇情就精彩瞭。前提是再能記住前麵發生的事,聯係一下。直接就不睡瞭。總之我是通宵看完的。但是真沒有特彆慎。就三星級吧。不過我反復迴想以後,決定給最後三章四星。英倫式驚悚,連嚇人都要纍積起來悶騷地到最後纔爆發。綜上,這是3星半。
