When Barry Fairbrother dies in his early forties, the 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 facade 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 parish 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? A big novel about a small town, The Casual Vacancy is J.K. Rowling's first novel for adults. It is the work of a storyteller like no other.
J.K. Rowling is the author of the bestselling Harry Potter series of seven books, published between 1997 and 2007, which have sold over 450 million copies worldwide, are distributed in more than 200 territories, translated into 73 languages, and have been turned into eight blockbuster films. She has also written two small volumes, which appear as the titles of Harry's schoolbooks within the novels. Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them and Quidditch Through the Ages were published by Bloomsbury Children's Books in March 2001 in aid of Comic Relief. In December 2008, The Tales of Beedle the Bard was published in aid of the Children's High Level Group, and quickly became the fastest selling book of the year. As well as an OBE for services to children's literature, J.K. Rowling is the recipient of numerous awards and honorary degrees including the Prince of Asturias Award for Concord, France's Legion d'Honneur, and the Hans Christian Andersen Award, and she has been a Commencement Speaker at Harvard University USA. She supports a wide number of charitable causes through her charitable trust Volant, and is the founder of Lumos, a charity working to transform the lives of disadvantaged children.
Such a depressing book. NOT recommended for casual readers.
评分从儿童文学转到现实题材,罗琳首先便想到了“揭露”富裕的中产阶级社区岁月静好外表下掩藏的罪恶和冷漠;这毕竟是每一个有野心的小说家都用过的套路,想来真是讨巧。

我想,成名作家最大的烦恼莫过于如何延续或是突破自我的创作生涯,他或她们不喜欢也不希望当自己的新作品呈现给读者时,所得到的反馈是令人失望的自我重复,渐而陷入江郎才尽的一潭死水,这对于任何一位作者而言都是不得不面对的挑战。显而易见,新作品担负的重任不仅要表现出...
评分《偶发空缺》最大的新闻点是“J.K.罗琳第一部成人小说”,写的是成年人的故事,成年人之间的纠葛和他们的纷扰。二三十个主要人物,个个异常传神,虽俱为麻瓜,可怜可恨之处各不相同。成年人读这本书,心中最隐秘的角落或许会被照亮,但不用担心,世无完人,小说中最完美的人物...
评分「别把它看作是罗琳写的,仍然是一本值得一看的小说」是我的评价。先说我是一个骨灰级的哈迷,不得不承认,读这本书给罗琳的感情分占了很大一部分,因为作者的名字闪耀着坚持读了下来,但是终章部分的荡气回肠,让人读完不禁生出无限的思考。 如果想在这本书中找到读「哈利波...
评分读者和书之间的关系无非两种:新欢,或是旧爱。 若你已经读过作家之前的作品,不管是一本或是多本,必定会有先入为主的感触。遣词方式、惯用的转折,更重要的是作品的内核。小说的气质复杂,恰如人的立体。当旧爱换了副面貌铺陈在眼前,你免不了细细辨认那些似曾相识...
评分恺蒂/文,刊于2012-10-21 东方早报·上海书评 对于过多宣传和运作的新书,我总是敬而远之。我的孩子年龄都小,是属于后《哈利·波特》的一代,虽然我女儿的 ipod 中也有一整套《哈利·波特》的有声书,但她没赶上那七部童书初版时的空前热闹。最近,罗琳新书《偶...
