Synopsis
The poignant -- and at times very funny -- new novel from the author of THE MAGICIAN'S ASSISTANT, shortlisted for the Orange Prize. Latin terrorists storm an international gathering hosted by an underprivileged country to promote foreign interest and trade, only to find that their intended target, the President, has stayed home to watch his favourite soap opera on TV. Among the hostages are a world class opera singer and her biggest fan, a Japanese tycoon who has been persuaded to attend the party on the understanding that she will perform half a dozen arias after dinner. The tycoon's engaging and sympathetic translator plays a vital role in the subsequent relationships between so many different nationalities closeted together, interpreting not only the terrorists' negotiations but also the language of love between lovers who cannot understand what the other is saying. Ultimately, it is the terrorist strike that does more to promote foreign relations than anyone could have hoped to achieve with the party.

评分《美声》:善恶交错中的人性净化 范典/文 看一眼书页后的作者安·帕契特个人小像,觉得很年轻,有点像好莱坞女星娜奥米·沃茨,但不知是否这种面貌上的“像”,竟使她的书也有了好莱坞式的理想化。 这是一个很有意思的故事,南美某小国家为日本富商细川克实举行生日会,请来...
