When Barry Fairweather dies unexpectedly in his early forties, the little town of Pagford is left in shock. Pagford is, seemingly, an English idyll, with a cobbled market square and an ancient abbey, but what lies behind the pretty façade is a town at war. Rich at war with poor, teenagers at war with their parents, wives at war with their husbands, teachers at war with their pupils…. Pagford is not what it first seems. And the empty seat left by Barry on the town’s council soon becomes the catalyst for the biggest war the town has yet seen. Who will triumph in an election fraught with passion, duplicity and unexpected revelations? Blackly comic, thought-provoking and constantly surprising, The Casual Vacancy is J.K. Rowling’s first novel for adults.

The Casual Vacancy 下载 mobi epub pdf 电子书##《偶发空缺》最大的新闻点是“J.K.罗琳第一部成人小说”,写的是成年人的故事,成年人之间的纠葛和他们的纷扰。二三十个主要人物,个个异常传神,虽俱为麻瓜,可怜可恨之处各不相同。成年人读这本书,心中最隐秘的角落或许会被照亮,但不用担心,世无完人,小说中最完美的人物...
评分##整个调子很灰暗,死亡开始死亡终结,那种压抑感颇象读凤凰社。第一场死亡搅动了一个小镇的沉渣,让每个人物的人性负面充分现形,最后的死亡倒似乎带来点救赎的机会。虽有点散乱,但群像画得还不错,每个人都挺鲜明。读这本比读哈里波特更让人感觉到她的文笔,可能是因为后者故事性压倒了别的。
评分 评分 评分##心理细节是看点,罗琳写得很趁手,如拍电影,多人物多画面同时切入,可能不错。不过铺陈太多了,后三部分快马加鞭,又过于浓稠。没有预料到Krystal的命运,这个选题,走向也过于沉重。
评分##没看过哈利波特,单纯就这本书来说,不对我的口味,感觉太拉杂了。但是“偶然性引发的不同反应和后果”这个概念不错,好多事情发展的确是偶然而来,意义重大,可是偏偏似乎是偶然发展的
