A chance encounter forever alters a family's understanding of itself. An exhilaratingly inventive, thought-provoking novel from the author of Hotel World.
Barefoot, thirtysomething Amber shows up at the door of a Norfolk cottage that the Smarts are renting for the summer. Amber doesn't know them, but she talks her way in, telling lies, and stays for dinner. Eve, an author, thinks Amber is a student her husband is sleeping with. Michael, an English professor, knows only that her car broke down. Daughter Astrid, age 12, thinks she's her mother's friend. Son Magnus, 17, thinks she's an angel.
Gradually, Amber insinuates herself into the family. Dazzled by her seeming exoticism, the Smarts begin to examine the accidents of their lives under the searing lens of Amber's perceptions. When Eve finally banishes her from the cottage, Amber disappears from their sight, but not—as they find when they return home to London—from their profoundly altered lives.
Fearlessly intelligent, disarmingly playful, The Accidental is a Joycean tour-de-force of literary improvisation that explores the nature of truth, the role of chance, and the transformative power of storytelling.

評分涉及當時很多社會問題,而這些問題到現在還在發生…挺有現實意義的小說,但敘事手法和Amber這個人物又比較虛幻。更喜歡Smith後麵的幾本小說。
評分十幾年前的小說到現在還有現實意義,有點諷刺。
