In the basement of a Boston bookstore, Firmin is born in a shredded copy Finnegans Wake, nurtured on a diet of Zane Grey, Lady Chatterley’s Lover, and Jane Eyre (which tastes a lot like lettuce). While his twelve siblings gnaw these books obliviously, for Firmin the words, thoughts, deeds, and hopes—all the literature he consumes—soon consume him. Emboldened by reading, intoxicated by curiosity, foraging for food, Firmin ventures out of his bookstore sanctuary, carrying with him all the yearnings and failings of humanity itself. It’s a lot to ask of a rat—especially when his home is on the verge of annihilation.
A novel that is by turns hilarious, tragic, and hopeful, Firmin is a masterpiece of literary imagination. For here, a tender soul, a vagabond and philosopher, struggles with mortality and meaning—in a tale for anyone who has ever feasted on a book…and then had to turn the final page.

评分P24 他们不只是来买本书，不是留下钱就匆匆离去；他们还要闲逛一会。他们管这叫“随便看看”，我倒觉得更像是挖掘或采矿，只差没带铲子进来了。他们赤手空拳地采掘宝藏，找到了便夹在胳肢窝下。若是他们能够从一堆杂书里拣出“金块”，那可比走进店里直接买走书要高兴的多。如...
评分看到《书虫小鼠》第二十九页上的那句，“他们没给我留点，当我赶上去时，只有一片生菜叶了。它尝起来有股《简•爱》的味道”，我被这本小书给逗乐了。 实话实说，对于不从事文学相关领域工作的读者来说，这本书并不是什么特别通俗的读物。刚开始作者唠唠叨叨讲了半...
