When Barry Fairweather dies unexpectedly in his early forties, the little town of Pagford is left in shock.
Pagford is, seemingly, an English idyll, with a cobbled market square and an ancient abbey, but what lies behind the pretty façade is a town at war.
Rich at war with poor, teenagers at war with their parents, wives at war with their husbands, teachers at war with their pupils...Pagford is not what it first seems.
And the empty seat left by Barry on the parish council soon becomes the catalyst for the biggest war the town has yet seen. Who will triumph in an election fraught with passion, duplicity and unexpected revelations?
Blackly comic, thought-provoking and constantly surprising, The Casual Vacancy is J.K. Rowling’s first novel for adults.
##如果這是一部電影,那麼你希望最後一個鏡頭定格在哪裏? 在閤上書之後,這個問題始終盤桓在我的心裏,猶豫再三,我希望會是剋裏斯塔爾贏得比賽高舉奬杯的那一幕,鏡頭可以從奬杯不斷上移,直到一片湛藍色的的天空占據整片銀幕,背景歌麯當然應該是那首她最喜歡的...
評分 評分##這是一本怎樣的書呢? 我說:他是一本,當你拿起來後就不願意停下;但短暫放下後卻需要更大的勇氣繼續閱讀。 它被迫讓我看到是,我最不想看到的一麵。 這本羅琳的書,在豆瓣上推薦瞭好久,一直未下決心去看,一方麵是我覺得《哈利波特》係列給我的印象太深瞭,我不想去改變我...
評分##昨天中午,一個星期的閱讀曆程終於結束的時候,耳機裏傳來蕾哈娜的‘umbrella’,醇厚的女聲有力的打著節拍,“When the sun shines, we’ll shine together.Told you I'll be here forever,Said I'll always be a friend,Took an oath I''ll stick it out till the end.”看著...
評分##剛開始讀這本書我犯瞭三個錯誤:太過於強調作者是寫過哈利波特的羅琳,開頭讀得太慢人物沒有及時理清楚,也就沒能很早融到故事中去,沒有心理準備這不是一本類型小說。所以讀的過程中都有些失望,或者說是一頭霧水,直到最後的一百頁纔開始找到點感覺。加上對英國議會製度和社保醫療製度不是很瞭解,pagford小鎮的生活離我的生活太遠,這樣一個封閉,人與人之間都有聯係的小鎮存在於21世紀,總是給我有些時空錯亂的感覺。我覺得這本書和《殺死一隻知更鳥》感覺有些類似,故事性不是很強,但是人物的刻畫非常細緻,鮮明。對於底層的階級或種族有很深的挖掘和展示,有很強的階級分明,並且要讀到最後纔能感受的這本書的著力點所在,讀完後不知道結局是悲是喜,隻是有些悶悶的感覺。
