Kitamura第三部小说的开头堪称完美:“故事始于伊莎贝拉的一个电话。她想知道克里斯托弗在哪里。”伊莎贝拉的儿子克里斯托弗和他的妻子 Steve Erickson, Shadowbahn
史蒂夫•埃里克森《Shadowbahn》
A lorry driver driving through South Dakota in 2021 sees the World Trade Center's twin towers that fell two decades earlier looming up against the "forbidding Badlands horizon". Soon, a gawking crowd has gathered, drawn by the spectacle dubbed the "American Stonehenge", and this soon includes Parker and Zema, who take a side trip toward the Towers on their way to Michigan to visit their mother. In this audacious futuristic novel, Erickson takes on American myth and history, pushing our imaginative borders along ever more shadowy faultlines.
2021年,一名卡车司机开车经过南达科塔州时看到20年前坍塌的世贸中心双子塔楼浮现在一片可怕的不毛之地上。很快,被称为“美国巨石阵”的奇观吸走了一群围观群众。帕克和泽马在前往密歇根看望母亲的路上顺路到双子塔旅游,不久他们也被卷入其中。在这部大胆的科幻小说中,作者埃里克森把美国神话和历史交融在一起,沿着越来越神秘的断裂层不断突破读者想象力的边界。
Glenn Frankel, High Noon
格伦•弗伦克尔《正午》
High Noon - the Gary Cooper Western whose title, since its release in 1952, has connoted "a moment of truth when a good man must confront evil" - was shot in 32 days during the era of the Hollywood Blacklist. Frankel, a Pulitzer Prize winner, describes the consequences of the blacklist on the film industry, including its effect on the film's writer, Carl Foreman, whose career was damaged because he refused to cooperate. Frankel makes the climate of suspicion and fear in Hollywood palpable.
