1. The Lovely Bones By Alice Sebold; 400 pages
1. 《可爱的骨头》,艾丽斯·西伯德著(400页)
Because Susie made us trust -- and cry for -- a ghost.
推荐理由:(女主人公)苏西让我们信任一缕孤魂,并为之哭泣。
In Sebold's first novel, The Lovely Bones, she has crafted a gripping tale of tragedy. Part detective story, part family drama, part meditation on what lies beyond, The Lovely Bones is a page-turner in the most literary sense.
《可爱的骨头》是西伯德的处女作,讲述了一个扣人心弦的悲剧故事。小说部分侦探向,又有点家庭剧的意味,它还对物质层面之外的事物展开些许沉思。从极为文学的角度而言,这部书写得极为精彩,引人入胜。
2. Gone Girl By Gillian Flynn; 422 pages
2. 《消失的爱人》,吉莉安·弗琳著(422页)
Because Flynn nails an age-old fear: Do we really know the people closest to us?
推荐理由:费琳在这本书中一针见血,点出人们由来已久的恐惧——我们真的了解同我们最亲密的人吗?
As the story unfolds in precise and riveting prose, readers will find they are being manipulated by the unreliable narrator Nick. Still, even one notices this, searching for the missing pieces is half the thrill of this wickedly absorbing tale.
在精准而又引人入胜的文字描述下故事情节渐渐展开,读者们将意识到自己正被不可靠的叙述者尼克牵着鼻子走。然而即使人们意识到这点,在这则诡异莫测、扣人心弦的故事中找寻遗失的片段只占一半紧张的心绪。
