A provocative new novel from the bestselling author of The Joy Luck Club and The Bonesetter's Daughter .
On an ill-fated art expedition into the southern Shan state of Burma, eleven Americans leave their Floating Island Resort for a Christmas-morning tour-and disappear. Through twists of fate, curses, and just plain human error, they find themselves deep in the jungle, where they encounter a tribe awaiting the return of the leader and the mythical book of wisdom that will protect them from the ravages and destruction of the Myanmar military regime.
Saving Fish from Drowning seduces the reader with a fagade of Buddhist illusions, magician's tricks, and light comedy, even as the absurd and picaresque spiral into a gripping morality tale about the consequences of intentions-both good and bad-and about the shared responsibility that individuals must accept for the actions of others.
A pious man explained to his followers: "It is evil to take lives and noble to save them. Each day I pledge to save a hundred lives. I drop my net in the lake and scoop out a hundred fishes. I place the fishes on the bank, where they flop and twirl. 'Don't be scared,' I tell those fishes. 'I am saving you from drowning.' Soon enough, the fishes grow calm and lie still. Yet, sad to say, I am always too late. The fishes expire. And because it is evil to waste anything, I take those dead fishes to market and I sell them for a good price. With the money I receive, I buy more nets so I can save more fishes."

读后感
关于本书类别 所属分类： 图书 >> 小说 >> 惊悚/恐怖 其实从始至终没有一点情节与恐怖惊悚有关，一些人的旅行见闻而已，由一只鬼述说出来的一个有爱的故事，另外陈从凳子上掉下来摔死算作悬疑未免太过可笑，所以小说归为恐怖类下纯属扯蛋。单...
评分 评分如果你有个温暖的长长的下午，建议你座在靠阳光的位置，别带音乐，静静的看这本书。这是趟漫长的旅行，或者你并不觉得它有多让你激动，它并不是以悬疑取胜的小说，但是你若安静的一气呵成看完，我想你再合上书的那一瞬间会有微微的感叹。 之前并不知道这个美籍华人...
评分书本拿在手里，第一件事就是看出版社。但我忽略了这次是译写而不是译者。 熟悉的作家照例是前言后记最后看的，不过当眼睛扫到译写的那位短短一行的资历简介时，就开始惊讶了。 那一行是：28岁 魔羯座 作家协会成员。 除了星座，另外两个词语都可以抹煞我看这本译作的兴趣。 ...
评分出乎意料，一帮ＳＢ翻的书。２１世纪还搞林琴南式翻译，本身就够操蛋的了，直接说粗制滥造得了，饶是如此还不见外，改原著，删减情节，改变章节顺序，真想问问：你们算干嘛的？译者是个悬疑小说作家，没文化，年轻气盛，没分寸感，我不怪丫，但是北京出版社的编辑怎么回...

评分有的小说还是要看原版的好。
评分这本书的翻译方式曾引人争议，便想从原文读起，再看译本究竟如何。
