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《书虫小鼠》是一本很有意思的书。讲的是一只寄居在书店地下室的怯弱小老鼠因为自小啃食书本,竟能识字看书,从而窥探并深刻理解人类世界。 在街上觅食,他看到危险和脏乱。正在拆除过程中的街区,仿如世界末日来临,一如五六十年代美国社会的混乱不安。就算是相对安全的电影...
