In the summer of 1983, twenty-year-old Nick Guest moves into an attic room in the Notting Hill home of the Feddens: conservative Member of Parliament Gerald, his wealthy wife Rachel, and their two children, Toby-whom Nick had idolized at Oxford-and Catherine, highly critical of her family's assumptions and ambitions. As the boom years of the eighties unfold, Nick, an innocent in the world of politics and money, finds his life altered by the rising fortunes of this glamorous family. His two vividly contrasting love affairs, one with a young black clerk and one with a Lebanese millionaire, dramatize the dangers and rewards of his own private pursuit of beauty, a pursuit as compelling to Nick as the desire for power and riches among his friends. Richly textured, emotionally charged, disarmingly comic, this U.K. bestseller is a major work by one of our finest writers.

文中提起两次的车牌号“WHO 6”应该是who sex的谐音吧?和脚注中的世界卫生组织貌似没什么关系 另:有人知道另一个车牌NG2485有什么意义吗? 抱歉,你的评论太短了抱歉,你的评论太短了抱歉,你的评论太短了抱歉,你的评论太短了抱歉,你的评论太短了

长得越大,越不容易入心。 从16岁到24岁,好像整个审美观都没有长进。先是日本,后是英国。而这两者其实也没有本质的差别,同是岛国,同闷骚,同不留出口。 最近看毕的《never let me go》,不甘心而看了第二遍,仍然泪流不止,因它设定太过狡诈,根本没有退路可言;这同我看...

布克奖终于误导了我一次,看了这本令人吐槽无力的书,有局部无整体,重点太多最后没有重点,可以形容为范冰冰穿衣服。。。布克奖是因为急需表明宽容搞基才颁奖给它的吗。。。
