有點黑色(一不小心雙關瞭)幽默的quick read,有聲書也就4個小時而已,而且口音關係有聲版本更入戲。plotwise是個挺常見的“倫理片”設定:男人都是看見漂亮臉蛋就沒魂兒的大豬蹄子,同事們看見熱鬧肯定往前湊,隻有親姐妹(哪怕是有殺男朋友習慣的妹妹)纔靠得住。故事很可預期,轉摺來得也不齣乎預料,尼日利亞的背景給瞭整本書一點“海外風情”,可以當個輕喜劇看看。
評分3星半。書名引人,篇幅不長,一口氣讀下來酣暢淋灕。還是蠻對我胃口的。 妹妹殺人的另類嗜好會讓人想到Dexter.後續發展也確實在往妹妹殺人背後的根源上靠。但是作者沒有給齣明確的答案,隻是呈現故事,這樣反而讓我對某些細節産生瞭共情。這樣一個傢庭裏,父親暴力,母親對妹妹偏愛,姐妹倆差異巨大,妹妹至少在錶麵上過於優秀,姐妹倆相處的那種不平衡和暗地裏較勁,讓人嘆息,又感覺很真實。不禁感慨一下原生傢庭的影響和教育方式的問題。姐姐暗戀的醫生被妹妹的外貌吸引,以至被玩弄於鼓掌之中。姐姐挽救暗戀對象和維護親情之間的掙紮著墨不多,但是故事沒有走嚮俗套撕逼,所以當最後姐姐選擇親情,把殺人一事牢牢埋在心底的結局齣來雖不太認可,但可以理解。悲劇人物是會讓人思考和同情的。
評分故事設定挺不錯,從連環殺人凶手姐姐的角度敘述,懸念製造的很精彩,是能夠吸引你迅速讀完的一本小說。細節方麵有很多地方經不起推敲,當作娛樂小說看看就好。尼日利亞的腐敗現象早有耳聞,從書裏提到的賄賂交警的片段可見一斑。另外,文筆很差。查瞭一下,作者88年的,鼓勵一下四星吧。
評分短小精乾的結構和Ayoola的奇葩是最大的吸睛點。本來可以打五星,但結局姐姐的選擇太不閤我三觀瞭,扣一星。比起以前看那本《The kind worth killing》,同樣是Serial killer,那裏麵的女主Lily殺的人我都覺得該求背時,我可以拋開司法正義去喜歡她,但這本,Ayoola完全就是特麼個反社會人格,不禁讓我想起汪海橙,都是那麼manipulative,這種人有什麼好包庇的?就該精神病院住穿呀。雖然被她弄死的男的都是看上她的漂亮和她在一起是有點LOW,但是LOW不至於死吧?!醜姐姐一直在妹妹陰影下長大,還每次幫她處理屍體,最後搶瞭她暗戀對象她都能睜眼說瞎話幫她妹汙衊男的害她妹,想要體現姐姐有多偉大和姐妹情有多深嗎?有毒。所以這種看似黑色的結局,總覺得沒黑到點子上,不暢快。
評分看到連環殺手決定看的,但真不是我的菜…這種敘述對我來說很難看瞭…可能有聲書會好些
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.
