约瑟芬·铁伊,1897年生于苏格兰因弗内斯,就读于当地的皇家学院。之后,在伯明翰的安斯地物理训练学院接受三年训练,然后开始物理训练讲师的生涯。后来,她辞去教职照顾她住在洛克耐斯的父亲,并开始写作。
这位英籍女作家,是20世纪30年代以来,推理史最辉煌的第二黄金期三大女杰之一,也是其中最特立独行的一位。和她齐名的阿加莎·克里斯蒂、多萝西·榭尔斯都是大产量、行销惊人的作家,铁伊却穷尽一生之力只写了八部推理小说,八部水准齐一的好小说——是推理史上极少数一生没有任何失败作品的大师。
On sick leave from Scotland Yard, Inspector Alan Grant is planning a quiet holiday with an old school chum to recover from overwork and mental fatigue.

Despite his doctor's orders, Grant needs just this sort of casual inquiry to quiet his jangling nerves. But what begins as a leisurely pastime eventually turns into a full-blown investigation that leads Grant to discover not only the key to the poem but the truth about a most diabolical murder.
相比阿加莎,我更喜欢铁伊。 《时间的女儿》让我觉得侦探小说写成这样真是太天才了。 而《歌唱的沙》这本书表现的则是一个写书者的冷静和构图能力。
评分经典,也许就是少而精的代称。大批量生产的模式化产品,充其量也就是畅销书,距离经典还少了些精致与矜持。 同样是侦探小说,柯南道尔成功地将无所不能的福尔摩斯介绍给我们崇拜。像乔丹一样,在老福复出之前的那些案件堪称犯罪杰作、探案经典,之后的重复我们只能把他看作迎...
评分不知道是否每种译本的后面加上这样一句话“如果你仅仅知道阿加莎·克里斯蒂,那说明你只是侦破推理小说的初入门者,直到开始阅读约瑟芬·铁衣,你才有可能推开智力与人性的另一道门。”我觉得这不是高数不是英语,何来入门和进阶呢? 说回书本身,书的情节很慢,需要静...

评分Writing with such integrity and outrage on so trivial a stranger. I don't know what it is? Pure passion or obsession with the truth. Either one can make an excellent writer.
