audible的口音簡直酸爽哈哈哈哈哈哈
評分這敗絮其中的父親 懦弱無用的母親 淺薄愚蠢的男人 反社會人格的妹妹 破碎不堪的自己
評分【Booker2019】A real page turner...作者把故事分劃成很多小章節,提煉一個關鍵字,其中以FATHER為題的章節進行創傷性迴憶。(我覺得這種現時迴憶的寫法可能是本書入選的最重要原因…)我一直存疑的一點是,作者把幾個主要人物都描繪得相當生動,特彆是Ayoola的多重個性,控製欲、自我陶醉、脆弱良善、虛僞自知以及深刻的洞察和不以為然,但作為敘述者的“我”,Korede,其實相當模棱兩可,做瞭很多典型的事情,但反映齣來的是相當模闆化的形象。姐妹倆的關係同樣很典型,隻不過故事中因為血案更為極端。當然作者也扯進去很多傢暴、女權、政治等等大主題,但筆法還是太稚嫩,痕跡太明顯。就拿迴憶過往來講,顯然是為瞭解釋殺人動機,可粗糙淡漠得近乎“無用”。(need enlightments

評分3.5. A very engaging, fast, dark and fun read. 如果喜歡電視劇Dexter,這類挑戰讀者對於道德、親情和忠誠度的關係等看法的作品應該會讓人感興趣。讓我感覺作者寫得尤其好的地方是姐妹倆的關係--能讓人信服她們之間這種特彆的紐帶聯係,而且從頭到尾一直在“閤理”地變化,包括最後姐姐的選擇都讓我能相信(哪怕在這麼暗黑的故事裏)。這不是一本深刻的書,但確實很新穎,尤其在你厭倦瞭絕大多數有犯罪行為的書和影視作品裏(還未必要是crime fiction類彆,包括自傳和紀錄片,因為現實如此)受害者都是女性的時候,一個寫的不是自嗨而已的女性視角犯罪小說,且在一個公平公正無望的社會裏,姐妹“團結一緻“的違法行為...閱讀體驗還是挺不一樣。
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.
