THE BESTSELLING POLITICAL THRILLER THAT INTRODUCED THE SCHEMING FRANCIS URQUHART - THE MOST MEMORABLE POLITICIAN OF THE LAST DECADE
Francis Urquhart is Chief Whip. He has his hands on every secret in politics - and is willing to betray them all to become Prime Minister.
Mattie Storin is a tenacious young political correspondent. She faces the biggest challenge of her life when she stumbles upon a scandalous web of intrigue and financial corruption at the very highest levels. She is determined to reveal the truth, but she must risk everything to do so. . .
Michael Dobbs has carved out a unique niche as Britain's leading political thriller writer. His books have foretold the downfall of Prime Ministers and the growing turmoil within the Royal Family. Every one has been a Top Ten bestseller. His first novel, House Of Cards, launched the career of the villainous Francis Urquhart, one of the most memorable fictional characters of recent years. He also appears in To Play the King and The Final Cut, and was immortalized by Ian Richardson in three award-winning BBC TV series.
For more than two decades Michael Dobbs has been at the right hand of political controversy. He was at Mrs Thatcher's side as she took her first step into Downing Street as Prime Minister, and was a key aide to John Major when he was voted out. In between times he was bombed in Brighton, banished from Chequers and blamed for failing to secure a Blair-Major television debate. His experiences have led him to be described as 'Westminster's baby-faced hit man' and 'a man who, in Latin America, would have been shot'.
Michael Dobbs' most recent novels , featuring his latest political hero, Thomas Goodfellowe MP, are Goodfellowe MP and The Buddha of Brewer Street.
这本书的书评其实挺难写的。写不成我们平时在微信微博上常看的鸡汤文。因为它说的是政治。政治往往都是腹黑的不可为外人道也的。也写不成好的片段精华的集萃。因为这篇小说的文笔精炼简介,是英国人特有的闷骚型腹黑。(后面这个词是我从网上抄来的,因为我也没有读过那么多书...
评分 评分写在前面:本书是英版《纸牌屋》的译本。与美剧《纸牌屋》不同。但封面却是用的美剧海报~~~这营销策略果然高明! 最近在读英文版,所以就看了看中文版。中文版开放了部分章节试读,心说书这么好,应该不至于太差。 看完之后。果然,就当我刚刚没说…… 外文书籍翻译水准一...
评分在看美剧《纸牌屋》时,我看到有人评论说虽然弗朗西斯是个混蛋,但是我仍然希望他能成功。 今天早上在地铁里读《你的剧本逊毙了!》时,读到“他是我们最讨厌的家伙,我们却偏偏希望他赢”时不禁笑了,又想起了这句评论。是的,正如很多美国人喜欢说的一句话:“他是个混蛋,...
与其说是政治小说,在我的感觉里更像是侦探或犯罪推理小说。与美剧相比,厄克特的布局能力不俗,但是受篇幅限制这样的阴谋布局更多的是小聪明而非政治智慧。倒是原著开篇就点明了用“纸牌屋”为题的原因了。
评分细节,心里描写,堪称神级的一本小说!!!!
评分没想象中那么精彩。原来原版小说和英版电视剧有所不同,和美版差别更大。不过我觉得从人物的描写上不如同是政治小说的《是,首相》,而且有过于冗杂和无关的风景描写。最后,一些情节确实受限于时代~
评分Classic style。多一个星给语言非常好,与美国人的语言好又有差别。这是一种内敛、含蓄、令人回味的文字。读英国人写的书,才能真正体会“幽默”二字的含义,那不动声色的体面的俏皮。
