4.5星。19世紀的新西蘭淘金故事,intrigue層層展開,人物性格很閤12星座,尤其我覺得其中Ah Sook感覺好中國,作為一個西方作者,實在不容易。美中不足的是有些小細節比如Anna's starving之類感覺最後也沒說清楚。
評分19世紀新西蘭淘金潮背景的懸疑故事。對於喜歡懸疑故事的讀者來說,不推薦!冗長,重復已知內容不止一遍,花裏鬍哨太多。
評分描述太多 反而淡化瞭情節代入感 讀得有些吃力
評分抽絲剝繭之後可能覺得故事沒那麼蹊蹺 然而敘述的方式確實獨特又吸引人
評分情節設計挺妙的。但,原諒我讀瞭太久。。以至於讀瞭後麵忘瞭前麵的情節。。
Born in Canada and raised in New Zealand, Eleanor Catton, 27, completed an MA in Creative Writing at Victoria University in 2007 and won the Adam Prize in Creative Writing for her first novel, The Rehearsal, which was also long-listed for the Orange Prize and short-listed for the Dylan Thomas Prize. She studied at the Iowa Writers' Workshop as the recipient of the 2008 Glenn Schaeffer Fellowship. She lives in New Zealand.
From the acclaimed author of The Rehearsal comes a novel about a young woman on trial for murder in nineteenth-century New Zealand.
On a blustery January day, a prostitute is arrested. In the midst of the 1866 gold rush on the coast of New Zealand, this might have gone unnoticed. But three notable events occur on that same day: a luckless drunk dies, a wealthy man vanishes, and a ship's captain of ill repute cancels all of his business and weighs anchor, as if making an escape. Anna Wetherell, the prostitute in question, is connected to all three men.
This sequence of apparently coincidental events provokes a secret council of powerful townsmen to investigate. But they are interrupted by the arrival of a stranger: young Walter Moody, who has a secret of his own...
THE LUMINARIES is an intricately crafted feat of storytelling, a mystery that reveals the ways our interconnected lives reshape our destinies.

In 2011, former MI5 chief, Dame Stella Rimington, stirred a controversy, when as the chair of the Booker Prize jury, she stressed upon readability as one of the driving criteria for their judgement. Another judge clarified that the plot has to zip along. Th...
評分今年年头的时候,南半球的夏天,我和好友S去新西兰游玩,因为不是自驾,全程几乎都是坐大巴。新西兰的大巴司机挺有意思,路上会带上麦克风和旅客聊风景。然后某一程上,司机大叔介绍了一本小说,说这本小说讲新西兰淘金时代的故事,好评如潮,他的原话是’international sensat...
評分我想我是因為自己在紐西蘭呆了一年 去過霍基蒂卡與但尼丁 知道這些地理環境 也瞭解一些毛利文化 再加上幾個博物館看過淘金時期的資料 尤其一些中國人留下的地圖與影像 https://youtu.be/xUPmQLt7Vrc 這印象對我閱讀這本書幫助很大 不過我向來討厭多人同譯一書 那表示翻譯過...
