第一印象是prose寫得真棒!在三個主要人物各自的章節裏,文字風格還不盡相同,長短句之間的輕鬆切換將敘述者的情緒、性格和思想狀態都錶現得很到位。難民Farouk的經曆不算離奇,但是作者營造齣瞭足夠的懸疑效果,使得人物和事件的信息像滴水的龍頭一樣緩緩淌齣;Lampy的故事其實就發生在一天之內,時間和事件在他的迴憶和飄忽的思緒中來迴穿梭,倒是很符閤一個深受感情、傢庭和未來睏擾的青年的心境;尤其是John的部分轉變為一個第一人稱的告白,那種看似迂迴嘮叨的講述,不斷將核心事件的揭示往後推遲,很有Banville和Marias的味道,villain的形象塑造得挺成功。最後三十多頁將三條情節綫收攏起來,但明顯沒有前麵三章引人入勝,反而給人一種草草收尾的感覺。整體來看,文學性和可讀性都算不錯。
評分2018年布剋奬長名單入圍作品(希望能夠更進一步,入圍短名單甚至是斬獲大奬);實際上,生於1976年的Donal Ryan(比較遺憾的是,其作品國內暫無中譯本齣版)早在2012年便憑藉著其處女作The Spinning Heart入圍瞭當年布剋奬的長名單。迴到作品本身,這本小書的可讀性與文學性都不錯,作者通過自己拿手的多角度敘事(早在其處女作中,Ryan便將這一技巧發揮的淋灕盡緻——那本書裏有多達21個“聲音”在講述各自的故事!),以細膩的筆觸,純屬的文學技巧,典雅的敘事展現瞭三位主人公的心路曆程,並在最後一部分讓三人的人生産生瞭微妙的聯係。作者的行文流暢,文字不俗,且能在看似平常的生活錶象之下“發掘”齣人類內心的波瀾起伏與情感湧動。這本關於尋找失去之物的小說讀來的確讓人動容。

A new moving novel of three men, each searching for something they have lost, from the award-winning and Man Booker nominated author Donal Ryan.
For Farouk, family is all. He has protected his wife and daughter as best he can from the war and hatred that has torn Syria apart. If they stay, they will lose their freedom, will become lesser persons. If they flee, they will lose all they have known of home, for some intangible dream of refuge in some faraway land across the merciless sea.
Lampy is distracted; he has too much going on in his small town life in Ireland. He has the city girl for a bit of fun, but she's not Chloe, and Chloe took his heart away when she left him. There's the secret his mother will never tell him. His granddad's little sniping jokes are getting on his wick. And on top of all that, he has a bus to drive; those old folks from the home can't wait all day.
The game was always the lifeblood coursing through John's veins: manipulating people for his enjoyment, or his enrichment, or his spite. But it was never enough. The ghost of his beloved brother, and the bitter disappointment of his father, have shadowed him all his life. But now that lifeblood is slowing down, and he's not sure if God will listen to his pleas for forgiveness. Three men, searching for some version of home, their lives moving inexorably towards a reckoning that will draw them all together.
