有点失望????…是因为期望太高了吗
评分看到连环杀手决定看的,但真不是我的菜…这种叙述对我来说很难看了…可能有声书会好些
评分Wicked funny
评分妹妹为了“自卫”接连杀死男友这条主线足够吊人胃口,姐姐帮忙清理现场、抛尸后在不安中回忆起父亲的故事算是一股暗线,明暗对比之下道出了妹妹杀人成瘾背后的根源,也有点批判尼日利亚父权文化的意思。书中最大的亮点是姐妹之间爱恨交织的竞争、共生关系,但是作者对两人形象、性格的塑造显得粗糙又刻板,姐姐在最后几章的突然转变也稍显刻意。全书倒不像简介中看起来那么阴郁惊悚,反而透着些幽默和狡黠,只是爆米花味还是浓了一点。
评分篇幅很短,文字很吸引人
OYINKAN BRAITHWAITE is a graduate of Creative Writing and Law from Kingston University. Following her degree, she worked as an assistant editor at Kachifo, a Nigerian publishing house, and has been freelancing as a writer and editor since. In 2014, she was shortlisted as a top-ten spoken-word artist in the Eko Poetry Slam, and in 2016 she was a finalist for the Commonwealth Short Story Prize. She lives in Lagos, Nigeria.
Satire meets slasher in this short, darkly funny hand grenade of a novel about a Nigerian woman whose younger sister has a very inconvenient habit of killing her boyfriends.
Korede is bitter. How could she not be? Her sister, Ayoola, is many things: the favorite child, the beautiful one, possibly sociopathic. And now Ayoola's third boyfriend in a row is dead. Korede's practicality is the sisters' saving grace. She knows the best solutions for cleaning blood, the trunk of her car is big enough for a body, and she keeps Ayoola from posting pictures of her dinner to Instagram when she should be mourning her "missing" boyfriend. Not that she gets any credit.
A kind, handsome doctor at the hospital where Korede works, is the bright spot in her life. She dreams of the day when he will realize they're perfect for each other. But one day Ayoola shows up to the hospital uninvited and he takes notice. When he asks Korede for Ayoola's phone number, she must reckon with what her sister has become and what she will do about it.
Sharp as nails and full of deadpan wit, Oyinkan Braithwaite has written a deliciously deadly debut that's as fun as it is frightening.
