Tom Rachman was born in London and raised in Vancouver. He is a graduate of the University of Toronto and the Columbia School of Journalism. He has been a foreign correspondent for The Associated Press (stationed in Rome, with assignments taking him to Japan, South Korea, Turkey and Egypt, among other places). From 2006 to 2008, he worked as an editor at the International Herald Tribune in Paris. The Imperfectionists is his first novel and is being published in ten countries.
Set against the gorgeous backdrop of Rome, Tom Rachman’s wry, vibrant debut follows the topsy-turvy private lives of the reporters, editors, and executives of an international English language newspaper as they struggle to keep it—and themselves—afloat.
Fifty years and many changes have ensued since the paper was founded by an enigmatic millionaire, and now, amid the stained carpeting and dingy office furniture, the staff’s personal dramas seem far more important than the daily headlines. Kathleen, the imperious editor in chief, is smarting from a betrayal in her open marriage; Arthur, the lazy obituary writer, is transformed by a personal tragedy; Abby, the embattled financial officer, discovers that her job cuts and her love life are intertwined in a most unexpected way. Out in the field, a veteran Paris freelancer goes to desperate lengths for his next byline, while the new Cairo stringer is mercilessly manipulated by an outrageous war correspondent with an outsize ego. And in the shadows is the isolated young publisher who pays more attention to his prized basset hound, Schopenhauer, than to the fate of his family’s quirky newspaper.
As the era of print news gives way to the Internet age and this imperfect crew stumbles toward an uncertain future, the paper’s richhistory is revealed, including the surprising truth about its founder’s intentions.
Spirited, moving, and highly original, The Imperfectionists will establish Tom Rachman as one of our most perceptive, assured literary talents.
涉及到很多个人物的穿插描写。 时间和空间的变换很多, 对于记性不好的人 不会很好读。跟本出版界的红楼梦似地。 但是每个人的个性都很鲜明。作为这个作者的处女座,看得出功底还是很雄厚的。 这本书去年亚马逊榜上有名。我是看了封皮和字体被吸引上的。 有多少人像我这么肤浅...
評分文/郑渝川 加拿大作家汤姆·拉赫曼在新作《我们不完美》中涉及报纸的生死问题,这在新媒体辈出的当下无疑具有现实意义。 小说直接进入事件:一夜之间,一家报纸就从报摊上消失了,连同其报头、与众不同的字体、体育、文化、商业、新闻、讣闻等版面。而无法接受此事的是该报...
評分喜欢这种小故事,干脆利落。情节紧凑。 在看之前,我并不知道这本书,讲的是编辑部的故事,看到中间才反应过来,啊,这个人名怎么这么熟悉,啊,这些怎么都是编辑部的故事,都是关于报纸的? 后来才发现,哦哦,原来整体都是在说同一个报社,反应太迟钝了点,主要是自己沉浸在...
