具體描述

J.K. Rowling is the author of the bestselling Harry Potter series of seven books, published between 1997 and 2007, which have sold more than 450 million copies worldwide, are distributed in more than 200 territories, translated into 74 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 & Where to Find Them and Quidditch Through The Ages were published by Scholastic 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 Légion d’honneur, and the Hans Christian Andersen Literature Award, and she has been a Commencement Speaker at Harvard University. 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.

When Barry Fairweather dies unexpectedly in his early forties, the little 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 façade 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 town’s 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? Blackly comic, thought-provoking and constantly surprising, The Casual Vacancy is J.K. Rowling’s first novel for adults.

##這是作者繼哈利。波特係列之後的第一部作品,個人認為這本書已經從兒童文學開始上升到文學的範疇瞭,作者在這本書裏加入瞭自己對於人生的感慨,於是威登一傢成為瞭全書的主綫,我仿佛看到瞭作者在對自己未成名之前的生活的一種感慨和唏噓(作者以前也是個貧窮的單親媽媽)。 這...

##看評論大傢感受差不多,開頭不太吸引人,漸漸漸入佳境吧。讀電子書有個好處,不看右下角的進度顯示,便可以完整接住作者抖的包袱

##對人物的描寫一如既往細膩,不過結尾有些狗血 愷蒂/文,刊於2012-10-21 東方早報·上海書評   對於過多宣傳和運作的新書,我總是敬而遠之。我的孩子年齡都小,是屬於後《哈利·波特》的一代,雖然我女兒的 ipod 中也有一整套《哈利·波特》的有聲書,但她沒趕上那七部童書初版時的空前熱鬧。最近,羅琳新書《偶...
