In steel-tipped prose, Craig Davidson conjures a savage world populated by fighting dogs, prizefighters, sex addicts, and gamblers. In his title story, Davidson introduces an afflicted boxer whose hand never properly heals after a bone is broken. The fighter's career descends to bouts that have less to do with sport than with survival: no referee, no rules, not even gloves. In "A Mean Utility" we enter an even more desperate arena: dogfights where Rottweilers, pit bulls, and Dobermans fight each other to the death. Davidson's stories are small monuments to the telling detail. The hostility of his fictional universe is tempered by the humanity he invests in his characters and by his subtle and very moving observations of their motivations. He shares with Chuck Palahniuk the uncanny ability to compel our attention, time and time again, to the most difficult subject matter.

评分一个人不能完美,跟你在一起才能完美。
评分不知道用了多久看完了这本英语原著,大部分是深处边缘或底层人物的事件描述、情感流露。不管在哪个国家,哪个民族,作为人类最本质的东西都是相通的。都渴望爱与幸福,在不幸中生活的人们也有着最原始的柔情。当你从书里看过那么多人的故事和生活之后,依然要庆幸自己所拥有的一切,然后磨去身上的锈,抚平彻骨的疼,当阳光打在脸上,我们起身勇敢前行。
