Lionel Essrog is Brooklyn’s very own self-appointed Human Freakshow, an orphan whose Tourettic impulses drive him to bark, count, and rip apart our language in the most startling and original ways. Together with three veterans of the St. Vincent’s Home for Boys, he works for small-time mobster Frank Minna’s limo service cum detective agency. Life without Frank Minna, the charismatic King of Brooklyn, would be unimaginable, so who cares if the tasks he sets them are, well, not exactly legal. But when Frank is fatally stabbed, one of Lionel’s colleagues lands in jail, the other two vie for his position, and the victim’s widow skips town. Lionel’s world is suddenly topsy-turvy, and this outcast who has trouble even conversing attempts to untangle the threads of the case while trying to keep the words straight in his head. Motherless Brooklyn is a brilliantly original homage to the classic detective novel by one of the most acclaimed writers of his generation.

In 2003, he published The Fortress of Solitude, which became a New York Times Best Seller.

作者的寫作風格很特彆,或者是因為他描寫的主人公有疾病的關係吧。一開始很難進入,堅持聽到一半後,節奏加快,就好讀很多瞭。

評分Very enjoyable and well-written (if somewhat light) new take on old-fashioned potboiler fiction. The narrator's Tourette's outbursts of free association are the high point, or at least were for me. I don't envy any Chinese translator who takes this one on -- it'll be a tough gig.

不得不说妥瑞氏症是本书唯一的亮点。如果要给这本书分类的话,那么这肯定是一本医学科普书,让读者深刻的了解了妥瑞氏症的症状。不论这本书的销量如何,我还是坚持自己的观点,给这本书打上大大的差评。 无情节,无语言,唯一塑造了一个怪胎的主人公。已经很少看到这样受到美国...
評分很早曾承诺为这本书写代序来着,很囧地拖到了写书评的时间,又拖着不肯写,突然发现文档里这几行字,就贴出来吧。 ------------ 后现代侦探的命运 侦探小说看多了,可以总结出几大套路来。疑凶必然不是真凶,逼真描写的必然不是真实,...

評分说实话,我没太读懂这本书。书中的压抑气氛有点像《红》,但是又不够悬疑。 他是蕴含着一种宗教还有隐晦的政治在其中,以一个人的视角来讲述发生在纽约布鲁克林的故事。 生命很迷茫,而周围的人似乎又很精明。那你的位置又在哪里呢?
評分By Lily “在抽搐中,寻找宁静,这是生存的真相,但这真相需要透过一个病态的人受折磨的翻译给我们听,才听进去了。”这是一段对《布鲁克林的孤儿》的推荐语。当读完全书,回头再看这句话时,更多的,是对自身的唏嘘和感慨。 《Motherless Brooklyn》,是1999年National Book...
