From the pen of a master -- the #1 bestselling, Booker Prize-winning author of Atonement -- comes an astonishing novel that captures the fine balance of happiness and the unforeseen threats that can destroy it. A brilliant, thrilling page-turner that will keep readers on the edge of their seats. Saturday is a masterful novel set within a single day in February 2003. Henry Perowne is a contented man -- a successful neurosurgeon, happily married to a newspaper lawyer, and enjoying good relations with his children. Henry wakes to the comfort of his large home in central London on this, his day off. He is as at ease here as he is in the operating room. Outside the hospital, the world is not so easy or predictable. There is an impending war against Iraq, and a general darkening and gathering pessimism since the New York and Washington attacks two years before. On this particular Saturday morning, Perowne's day moves through the ordinary to the extraordinary. After an unusual sighting in the early morning sky, he makes his way to his regular squash game with his anaesthetist, trying to avoid the hundreds of thousands of marchers filling the streets of London, protesting against the war. A minor accident in his car brings him into a confrontation with a small-time thug. To Perowne's professional eye, something appears to be profoundly wrong with this young man, who in turn believes the surgeon has humiliated him -- with savage consequences that will lead Henry Perowne to deploy all his skills to keep his family alive.

用了很长的时间,慢慢看完了这本书。这本书让我对麦克尤恩有了新的认识。我对麦克尤恩的第一认识是《最初的爱,最后的仪式》。那是一本才华横溢的短篇小说集,他的处女作。从《最》可以看出,一个满溢天才天马行空的想象力与细腻精到的控制力,还有一个深刻作家应具备的不令人...
評分 評分刚开始读的时候囫囵吞枣,没有太注重细节,后面的故事才是整本书的高潮。 主人公医生在星期六的一个早上经历的大起大落,在更加凝固了家庭的凝聚力,但是细节不是太过完美,整体的英雄主义也太过明显,相比于至少读过的几本,整个风格又有了一个质的变化。 医生女儿的外公约翰...
