Inspired by the W.B. Yeats poem that tempts a child from home to the waters and the wild, "The Stolen Child" is a modern fairy tale narrated by the child Henry Day and his double.""On a summer night, Henry Day runs away from home and hides in a hollow tree. There he is taken by the changelings--an unaging tribe of wild children who live in darkness and in secret. They spirit him away, name him Aniday, and make him one of their own. Stuck forever as a child, Aniday grows in spirit, struggling to remember the life and family he left behind. He also seeks to understand and fit in this shadow land, as modern life encroaches upon both myth and nature. In his place, the changelings leave a double, a boy who steals Henry's life in the world. This new Henry Day must adjust to a modern culture while hiding his true identity from the Day family. But he can't hide his extraordinary talent for the piano (a skill the true Henry never displayed), and his dazzling performances prompt his father to suspect that the son he has raised is an imposter. As he ages the new Henry Day becomes haunted by vague but persistent memories of life in another time and place, of a German piano teacher and his prodigy. Of a time when he, too, had been a stolen child. Both Henry and Aniday obsessively search for who they once were before they changed places in the world. "The Stolen Child" is a classic tale of leaving childhood and the search for identity. With just the right mix of fantasy and realism, Keith Donohue has created a bedtime story for adults and a literary fable of remarkable depth and strange delights.

此书翻译非常之好,不过百密一疏,还是有所不足: 第17页,“她会准备好我们的晚餐,把我的同伴叫到餐桌旁” 后半句的原文是my company at tableside,company是“陪伴”的意思,即“把我叫到餐桌旁陪她”。 第34页,“马丁先生忙于评价我母亲,没有注意到这无言的交流。” ...

我想我是明白原因的,喜欢那个永远不再长大的男孩,喜欢那个在成长中迷失的男子,喜欢那个无所适从终于放弃生命的换生灵。他们都在挣扎,忍不住逃离原有的生活,却找不回归宿,只好在灵魂的游荡里苟且求生。 忘记了名字所以失去自我,不再拥有爱也就不再拥有希望。无论森林还...
