Ted Hughes's first children's book. It is dedicated to Frieda, Sylvia's and Ted's then newly born daughter. It is a book of heavily-rhyming poems in which Hughes describes imagined family members.

作者簡介
Ted Hughes was born on 17 August 1930 in Mytholmroyd, a small mill town in West Yorkshire. His father made portable wooden buildings. The family moved to Mexborough, a coal-mining town in South Yorkshire, when Hughes was seven. His parents took over a newsagent and tobacconist shop, and eventually he went to the local grammar school.
In 1948 Hughes won an Open Exhibition to Pembroke College, Cambridge. Before going there, he served two years National Service in the Royal Air Force. Between leaving Cambridge and becoming a teacher, he worked at various jobs, finally as a script-reader for Rank at their Pinewood Studios.
In 1956 Hughes married the American poet Sylvia Plath, who died in 1963, and they had two children. He remarried in 1970. He was awarded the OBE in 1977, created Poet Laureate in December 1984 and appointed to the Order of Merit in 1998. He died in October 1998.

用戶評價
故事的結構安排大膽得近乎反主流。它完全拋棄瞭傳統敘事中明確的“衝突—高潮—解決”三段式布局。整部作品讀下來，最大的感受是“事件的稀疏性”。主要的轉摺點往往不是通過激烈的對話或戲劇性的行動來實現的，而是通過一種潛移默化的氛圍變化悄然完成的。我印象最深的是，關於那個傢族秘密的核心矛盾，直到全書的四分之三處纔以一種近乎耳語的方式被揭示齣來，而且揭示的方式不是通過某個人物的坦白，而是通過一張被遺忘在舊相冊角落裏的一張褪色的明信片。這種對“戲劇性”的刻意規避，使得作品的張力完全建立在“等待”和“未言明”之上。這對我來說是一次非常新穎的體驗，它強迫你關注那些被日常生活中忽略的微小信號，但同時也意味著，如果你期待那種酣暢淋灕的敘事釋放，你可能會感到極度受挫，因為它似乎更傾嚮於讓問題懸置，讓讀者自己去完成最後的拼圖和情緒的釋放。
评分這部作品成功地營造瞭一種獨特的、揮之不去的“懷舊的憂鬱感”，但這種情緒並非源自對過去美好時光的簡單緬懷，而更像是對“時間流逝”這一不可抗拒的物理定律的深刻哀嘆。作者通過對日常物品的細緻描繪，成功地將過去與現在編織在一起，使讀者強烈地感覺到，每一個物件——一把生銹的鑰匙、一個殘缺的瓷杯、一首被遺忘的搖籃麯——都承載著無法挽迴的時間重量。這種憂鬱是內斂的，它不訴諸淚水或激烈的爭吵，而是通過一種彌漫在空氣中、難以言喻的“失落感”滲透齣來。讀完之後，你不會因為某個角色的命運而激動落淚，但你會發現自己在接下來的幾天裏，會不由自主地放慢動作，更仔細地觀察身邊平凡事物的細節，心中隱約有一種對自身存在短暫性的恍惚感。這是一種深刻的、形而上的情感體驗，它要求讀者不僅要理解故事，更要與作者共同承擔對“存在”的沉重感知。
评分從文學技巧的角度來看，作者對內心獨白的運用達到瞭令人咋舌的復雜程度。它不像我們常見的心理活動描寫那樣直白地揭示人物的動機或情感狀態，而是更像是一張由意識流構成的錯綜復雜的網。人物的想法是跳躍的、非綫性的，充滿瞭大量的象徵和隱喻，有時候甚至需要反復閱讀纔能捕捉到潛藏在句子結構背後的真實情緒。例如，主角在麵對一個關鍵抉擇時，他的“想法”並不是清晰的“A或B”，而是不斷地在迴憶起兒時丟失的一枚玻璃彈珠、一個不閤時宜的歌劇片段，以及一種對某種特定氣味（像是潮濕的泥土和陳年書籍混閤的味道）的反復追溯中搖擺不定。這種寫法極大地增加瞭閱讀的挑戰性，但也賦予瞭角色一種令人信服的、混亂的真實感。你不是在“讀”一個角色的想法，你更像是“潛入”瞭他們那永不停歇的大腦的渦流之中，體驗那種思緒的拉扯和自我審視的摺磨，這要求讀者也必須投入同等的精力去解碼這些晦澀的內部語言。
评分語言的質感是這本書最鮮明的烙印，它具有一種令人難以抗拒的、幾乎是巴洛剋式的繁復美感。作者似乎迷戀於使用那些在現代文學中已經罕見的、極具曆史感的詞匯和句式結構。句子往往很長，充滿瞭復雜的從句和嵌套的修飾語，讀起來仿佛在品嘗一壇陳年的、層次極其豐富的葡萄酒，你需要時間來讓每一種香氣和迴味充分展開。我特彆欣賞作者對“光綫”和“陰影”的描繪，他不像是在描述視覺現象，更像是在描繪一種形而上的存在狀態。比如，他對午後陽光穿過百葉窗投射在地闆上的幾何圖案的描述，可以占據整整一頁篇幅，每一個光束的邊緣、每一塊陰影的深度都被賦予瞭哲學意義。這種對詞語的雕琢，使得這本書的閱讀過程成為瞭一種對語言本身美學的朝聖，但這也必然帶來一個副作用：閱讀速度被大幅度拖慢，每一次翻頁都感覺像是在完成一次精細的古籍修復工作。
评分這本書的敘事節奏簡直是教科書級彆的慢熱。開篇花瞭大量的篇幅去描繪主人公童年居住的小鎮的地理風貌和曆史沿革，這種詳盡到近乎偏執的細節堆砌，讓我一度懷疑我拿到的不是小說，而是一部地方誌。比如，作者花瞭整整三頁紙來描述鎮上那棵百年老橡樹的年輪紋理和它所經曆的每一次雷擊，這對於推進核心情節來說，似乎是完全不必要的冗餘。讀者需要極大的耐心纔能穿過這層厚厚的背景描寫，到達人物首次登場的那一刻。不過，一旦你適應瞭這種沉靜的、近乎散文詩般的筆觸，你會發現作者在這些看似無關緊要的描述中埋下瞭許多伏筆，關於小鎮居民的某種集體潛意識和對外界的疏離感，這種鋪陳帶來的後勁是驚人的，隻是，對於追求快節奏閱讀體驗的讀者來說，前一百頁無疑是一場嚴峻的考驗，需要極高的專注力和對“環境即角色”這一理念的深刻認同纔能堅持下來，否則很容易在那些霧氣彌漫的清晨和重復的集市場景中迷失方嚮。
