《科幻世界》譯文版 2008.12月號
Thomas Abbey is a man stuck in a rut. An English teacher in a small Connecticut prep school, Abbey is in a crisis. His career is unfulfilling, he has no social or love life to speak of, and he cannot break out of the shadow of his famous father, the actor Stephen Abbey. To kick-start his life, he takes a sabbatical to work on a biography of his favorite writer, Marshall France. France's books were the only thing that kept Abbey sane during his childhood, and though he was renowned for his lyrical and imaginative children's books, nearly nothing was known about the writer's life.
Although Abbey has been warned that France's daughter Anna has blocked all previous attempts at her father's biography, he and Saxony Garder--an intense woman also obsessed with France's life--head to Galen, Missouri, with high hopes of breaking down Anna's resistance. They are surprised to find Anna the soul of small-town hospitality and quite excited about Abbey's proposal--even eager to get the project finished as soon as possible. Even stranger than Anna's behavior is the town of Galen itself. On the surface, all is as a small midwestern town should be. But the people of the town seem to know what their future holds--freak accidents and all--down to the hour and are as eager for Abbey to finish the biography as Anna is.
As far as plot goes, The Land of Laughs doesn't break any new ground--it is a riff on a very old literary theme--and the more interesting issues the story raises--fate, free will, and the creative power of the written word--receive only a glancing blow as the story careens to its somewhat unsatisfying Gothic ending. That said, Carroll does show a good ear for dialogue and a deft hand at creating complex characters and quietly ominous moods. And the story--hoary plot line and all--immediately grabs you and doesn't let go. If you already know Jonathan Carroll from his other novels, you will want to add this reissue of his first novel to your library. And if you haven't yet been introduced to this inventive author, The Land of Laughs is the perfect place to begin. --Perry M. Atterberry
看的是科幻世界的译文版,译得相当不错。看科幻几年,是为数不多让我喜爱的故事。本人爱看故事、爱看好故事,如此叙述耐心、文笔独特的故事不可多得。一看就不忍释卷、如临其境。故事就是故事,不以说教来让人心生敬畏,而以其漂亮的文采、巧妙的设计、蕴含的智慧来吸引和感悟...
評分卡罗尔的小说。奇妙的幻想,简洁细致的语言,营造出的是一个可以融入其中的幻想世界,在那个世界中可以得到完美的放松。
評分前几天比较有心情也比较闲,所以终于把《欢笑幻境》给看完了。 首先得说,文字不错。虽然听有人说这篇的翻译不怎样,我个人倒是觉得译者们的文笔还比较有水准。 其次,我想说,虽然从写作手法上,这篇的确做到了有话不说,有事也慢言,包袱抖的很有耐心,但磨磨叨叨,啰里啰...
評分小说,不论是通俗的还是主流的,不论是科幻的还是奇幻的,小说对于大众读者,个人觉得只要一个很重要的要求,那就是要好看,我们不看有多少内涵,不看有多少深度,不看多有意义,只要好看,只要大家觉得好看了,才会有人去发掘上边所说的深度、内涵、意义,一本小说让人都难以...
