具體描述
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.
用戶評價
##trying too hard that her words almost read draining. one step further and it would be a disgraceful showing-off.[0601 這本書應該齣個刪減版。
##居然是給成人看的懸疑小說......
##感覺羅琳這真是過足瞭講故事寫人物的癮啊，雖然故事本身真沒什麼，但是細節還是寫得特彆棒。繼續腦殘粉。
##真心麼啥意思的一書
##so so
##感覺羅琳這真是過足瞭講故事寫人物的癮啊，雖然故事本身真沒什麼，但是細節還是寫得特彆棒。繼續腦殘粉。
##開頭好生似曾相識。最後三分之一漸入佳境瞭，可前麵三分之二差點整死我。很多好細節，可前麵幾乎隻有細節，瑣碎細密沉重，就像jiak當年說屎撈人的時候：「太灰色瞭」。
##Only worshiping her achievement on HP series.
##整個調子很灰暗，死亡開始死亡終結，那種壓抑感頗象讀鳳凰社。第一場死亡攪動瞭一個小鎮的沉渣，讓每個人物的人性負麵充分現形，最後的死亡倒似乎帶來點救贖的機會。雖有點散亂，但群像畫得還不錯，每個人都挺鮮明。讀這本比讀哈裏波特更讓人感覺到她的文筆，可能是因為後者故事性壓倒瞭彆的。
