A classic tale from Doris Lessing, Winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature 2007, of a family torn apart by the arrival of Ben, their feral fifth child. 'Listening to the laughter, the sounds of children playing, Harriet and David would reach for each other's hand, and smile, and breathe happiness.' Four children, a beautiful old house, the love of relatives and friends, Harriet and David Lovatt's life is a glorious hymn to domestic bliss and old-fashioned family values. But when their fifth child is born, a sickly and implacable shadow is cast over this tender idyll. Large and ugly, violent and uncontrollable, the infant Ben, 'full of cold dislike', tears at Harriet's breast. Struggling to care for her new-born child, faced with a darkness and a strange defiance she has never known before, Harriet is deeply afraid of what, exactly, she has brought into the world!

评分沒有人看這本《第五個孩子》時會有笑聲。如同它書封上寫著的,這是一本令人毛骨悚然的故事,所想必閱讀的時候,應該會是驚恐的,更別說是發出笑聲了。我不知道為什麼寫書介的人會用這「毛骨悚然」來形容它,是因為這第五個孩子「班」的怪異的行為,以及它根本不像人類的種種?...
