"The Moonstone," by Wilkie Collins, is part of the "Barnes and Noble Classics"" "series, which offers quality editions at affordable prices to the student and the general reader, including new scholarship, thoughtful design, and pages of carefully crafted extras. Here are some of the remarkable features of "Barnes and Noble Classics": New introductions commissioned from today's top writers and scholars Biographies of the authors Chronologies of contemporary historical, biographical, and cultural events Footnotes and endnotes Selective discussions of imitations, parodies, poems, books, plays, paintings, operas, statuary, and films inspired by the work Comments by other famous authors Study questions to challenge the reader's viewpoints and expectations Bibliographies for further reading Indices and Glossaries, when appropriateAll editions are beautifully designed and are printed to superior specifications; some include illustrations of historical interest. "Barnes and Noble Classics "pulls together a constellation of influences-biographical, historical, and literary-to enrich each reader's understanding of these enduring works. Alongside Edgar Allan Poe in America, Britain's Wilkie Collins stands as the inventor of the modern detective story. "The Moonstone" introduces all the ingredients: a homey, English country setting, and a colorfully exotic background in colonial India; the theft of a fabulous diamond from the lovely heroine; a bloody murder and a tragic suicide; a poor hero in love with the heroine but suspected of the crime, who can't remember anything about the night the jewel was stolen; assorted friends, relatives, servants, a lawyer, a doctor, a sea captain-suspects, all; and, mostessentially, a bumbling local policeman and a brilliant if eccentric London detective. Adding spice to the recipe are unexpected twists, a bit of dark satire, a dash of social comment, and an unusual but effective narrative structure-eleven different voices relate parts of the tale, each revealing as much about himself (and, in one case, herself) as about the mystery of the missing Moonstone. Filled with suspense, action, and romance, "The Moonstone" is as riveting and intoxicating today as it was when it first appeared more than a century ago. Joy Connolly teaches in the Classics Department at New York University. Her recent research includes the history of rhetoric and political thought, and the relationship of literature and ethics. She writes book reviews for the New York Times and other publications.

評分《月亮宝石》拥有我喜欢的小说的大部分元素,推理(引发观众一直看下去得渴望),巨大的钻石以及幕后的传说以及装神弄鬼的印度人(或者随便什么巫师巫术,通常都是障眼法),生活很静止的上流社会庄园小姐和公子以及他们毫无意义的游戏和求爱,人性化复杂一点的奴仆阶层和他们...
評分初中的时候读过这本书,当时还是少女心爆棚,关注点都在主人公的感情生活中。最喜欢富兰克林,虽然在鸦片的作用下偷了宝石,但一切事出有因,而他对蕾切尔专一的感情也很打动我。但除了本性善良,感情专一之外,他也有些潜藏在内心中的英国贵族的高傲,这点也导致了罗姗娜最终...
評分威尔基.柯林斯的侦探小说《月亮宝石》里特别有趣的一处是,第一个故事的叙述者管家贝特里奇喜欢《鲁滨逊漂流记》的程度早已超越了文学的范围,他说“多年来我一直在靠这部书解决疑难---我认为它是我的患难朋友。碰到情绪不好---看《鲁滨逊漂流记》。碰到没了主意---看《鲁滨逊...
評分我在读《月亮宝石》的时候,璐儿在看我借给她的《神雕侠侣》。她说她读《月亮宝石》的时候是在初中,正和我读《神雕侠侣》的时间段差不多。 名著大概都是不会过时的,无论是十来岁还是二十来岁三十来岁,大概各个年龄去读都各有各的味道。 《月亮宝石》这本有一个推理小说的...
