加思‧斯坦(Garth Stein)
美国著名作家。1990年获哥伦比亚大学艺术硕士学位,原为纪录片制作人。
1998年出版小说Raven Stole the Moon,在文学界初试啼声。2005年《单身伊凡的城堡》出版,获次年太平洋西北书商公会图书奖、美国独立书商协会选书。2008年《我在雨中等你》甫一出版,迅速登上《纽约时报》畅销书榜,先后荣居23个国家及地区排行榜首位,至今长销不衰。
《单身伊凡的城堡》以细腻的文字、亲切又不寻常的故事,展露成长中的敏感、不羁、脆弱与彷徨。基调悠长又略带戏谑,如折镜般拢起一束光,温暖习惯退缩、独舐孤独的心灵。
“Funny, bewitching, observant.”— The Oregonian “Hits all the frets of a powerful story: sharp-witted dialogue, vivid characters, insight into medical challenges and prose that snaps like well-placed plucks of guitar strings. . . . I hold up my lighter and turn it full-flame for [Garth] Stein’s latest work. Encore!”— The Seattle Times “Compelling.”— Seattle Post-Intelligencer “Stein handles the many narrative elements deftly.”— Seattle Weekly “An engrossing family drama.”— Publishers Weekly Evan had a hit single, but that was ten years ago. Thirty-one now, he’s drifting, playing in a local band and teaching middle-aged men to coax music from an electric guitar. Beset at a young age with a life-threatening form of epilepsy, he’s kept his condition a secret. But his deepest secret is that he got his high school sweetheart pregnant. Then her conservative parents whisked her out of Seattle and out of Evan’s life. Now, fourteen years later, he experiences unplanned parenthood when he undertakes to raise the resentful teenage son he’s never known. Off beat and disarming, How Evan Broke His Head and Other Secrets portrays a contemporary American family with unfailing honesty. Garth Stein , a former documentary filmmaker, was co-producer of an Academy Award-winning short film. How Evan Broke His Head and Other Secrets is his second novel; his first, Raven Stole the Moon , was published by Pocket Books. His third novel, The Art of Racing in the Rain , will be published by HarperCollins in 2008 and is being translated around the world. He lives in Seattle with his wife and children.

评分每个人人心里都有一片阴影,供人躲藏,供人栖息,甚至将人隔离禁闭。 但没有多少人能意识到:自己竟是安歇于监狱。 多多少少,买这本伊凡,多多少少受了些《我在雨中等你》的影响。 好几年了,《雨中等你》的那条叫“恩佐”的狗,始终让人难以忘怀。 常常会想起,它看电视的郁...
