In me are the memories of a boy's life, spent in that realm of enchantments. These are the things I want to tell you....
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.
Zephyr, Alabama, is an idyllic hometown for eleven-year-old Cory Mackenson -- a place where monsters swim the river deep and friends are forever. 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....

16年11月開始衝著懸疑而來在kindle上讀起,也不知道這本書的厚度,結果在第一章第一節就足足花瞭五天,後來又斷斷續續得看,不明白人們說得“好看到無法自拔體現在哪”。那時候我可能隻是一心一意衝著懸疑而讀下去的,其他類型的書的確沒那麼喜好。 第一次覺得還不錯是在他們衝...
評分就在剛剛,我把《奇風歲月》看完瞭,這本牽絆我整個暑假的書,雖然厚得可怕,但我總算把她看完瞭。 當初我買這本書,單純是因為我對它的封麵一見鍾情,紅色的封麵,一位坐在自行車上的男孩,在濃密的草原上飛翔,一直給我很強的心靈衝擊。它讓我想到瞭《追風箏的人》,於是第二...
評分同強力推薦。這本入選瞭美國教科書的懸疑小說真是厚得離譜,敦敦實實607頁,讀起來絲毫不讓人覺得纍,反而在最後閤上書時還滿心的悵然遺憾,希望這個故事能再長一點。凡是有過童年的人都會喜歡這本書,不管你是在鋼筋水泥裏長大還是在原野田埂上成熟,不管你小時候玩的是電子遊...
評分1951年的聖誕節前夕,少年霍爾頓嫖妓失敗還被人打瞭一頓。他叼著煙歪戴著帽子,神情狼狽心裏想的卻是去做一個麥田裏的守望者。“我知道這有點異想天開,可我真正喜歡乾的就是這個。” 那片麥田在南方。就在霍爾頓遊蕩在深夜的紐約街頭的時候,阿拉巴馬州的一個叫阿甘的孩子剛剛...
評分文/嚴傑夫 電視裏放著的某IT企業關於未來生活的構想。照例是明亮的空間裏,充斥著簡約風格的後現代設計,讓人覺得那就是天堂的樣子,簡單中卻處處透著奢華。曾幾何時,我們不是幻想著能生活在那樣的環境裏:那裏沒有用來貯藏零食的鐵皮罐子,因為已經有瞭體積碩大的智能冰箱;...
