"A fast-paced, gripping story set in a world of gruesome violence and perversity, where 'why?' is not a question and murder happens on a whim: but where a very faint ray of grace and hope lights up the landscape of salt and blood and ice. A tour de force of narrative tension and a masterful reconstruction of a lost world that seems to exist at the limits of the human imagination." —Hilary Mantel

“This is a novel that takes us to the limits of flesh and blood. Utterly convincing and compelling, remorselessly vivid, and insidiously witty, The North Water is a startling achievement.” —Martin Amis

A nineteenth-century whaling ship sets sail for the Arctic with a killer aboard in this dark, sharp, and highly original tale that grips like a thriller.

Behold the man: stinking, drunk, and brutal. Henry Drax is a harpooner on the Volunteer, a Yorkshire whaler bound for the rich hunting waters of the arctic circle. Also aboard for the first time is Patrick Sumner, an ex-army surgeon with a shattered reputation, no money, and no better option than to sail as the ship's medic on this violent, filthy, and ill-fated voyage.

In India, during the Siege of Delhi, Sumner thought he had experienced the depths to which man can stoop. He had hoped to find temporary respite on the Volunteer, but rest proves impossible with Drax on board. The discovery of something evil in the hold rouses Sumner to action. And as the confrontation between the two men plays out amid the freezing darkness of an arctic winter, the fateful question arises: who will survive until spring?

With savage, unstoppable momentum and the blackest wit, The North Water weaves a superlative story of humanity under the most extreme conditions.

可怕的預言,幸好醫生勇敢戰勝瞭命運,不過他最終搶奪瞭大boss的金幣隱姓埋名,是屈服還是無奈。

感覺有點毛骨悚然

3.5* as what Drax said, what he killed the man is unrelated to righteousness or wrongfulness. It only concerns about the problem of wiliness or power, instead of the ethic evaluation, coz those who judge him in London, merely judge him by theirs power and wiliness as well.我們可以從兩個維度觀察人的行為:意誌和能力。道德評價的前提是能為——如此,便能發現:道德是與意欲相搏。一個人能殺人,而不殺,抑或能不救而馳援,配得評價。

北方海域~算是泛讀吧,真的嚇人但也引人深思……

寫作技術非常好的一本書,兼顧瞭劇情、人物、意境、畫麵、文字、韻律。雖然劇情有些地方誇張瞭些,男主光環是不是有些大,要是傑剋倫敦的小說,男主早就死瞭。作者對“髒、臭、膿血”三種元素有點迷戀,寫瞭好多。愛斯基摩人那兩章感覺怪怪的,尤其是goodbye那裏,好像硬要給主角增加點人性似的,(他已經有瞭啊)不覺得猝不及防嗎。其實男主幻覺中看見養父的胳膊沒有殘疾那裏,比寫他聽瞭goodbye突然動搖要自然。總體上書非常帶勁,通讀很過癮。
