Robert McCammon delivers "a tour de force of storytelling" (BookPage) in his award-winning masterpiece, a novel of Southern boyhood, growing up in the 1960s, that reaches far beyond that evocative landscape to touch readers universally.
Boy's Life is a richly imagined, spellbinding portrait of the magical worldview of the young -- and of innocence lost.

Then, one cold spring morning, Cory and his father witness a car plunge into a lake -- and a desperate rescue attempt brings his father face-to-face with a terrible, haunting vision of death. As Cory struggles to understand his father's pain, his eyes are slowly opened to the forces of good and evil that surround him. From an ancient mystic who can hear the dead and bewitch the living, to a violent clan of moonshiners, Cory must confront the secrets that hide in the shadows of his hometown -- for his father's sanity and his own life hang in the balance....

评分就在刚刚,我把《奇风岁月》看完了,这本牵绊我整个暑假的书,虽然厚得可怕,但我总算把她看完了。 当初我买这本书,单纯是因为我对它的封面一见钟情,红色的封面,一位坐在自行车上的男孩,在浓密的草原上飞翔,一直给我很强的心灵冲击。它让我想到了《追风筝的人》,于是第二...
评分在网上一搜索,发现这个作家居然还是跟斯蒂芬·金差不多的畅销作家。其实读过金的一些小说,觉得大同小异,当然,所谓的类型作家也就是在一个类型里要做到登峰造极。这一点上金肯定是无可争议的高手,而且他的作品也确实是很给读者快感的。我觉得那种阅读体验跟读卫斯理、...
