内容简介
One book. Two readers. A world of mystery, menace, and desire.A young woman picks up a book left behind by a stranger. Inside it are his margin notes, which reveal a reader entranced by the story and by its mysterious author. She responds with notes of her own, leaving the book for the stranger, and so begins an unlikely conversation that plunges them both into the unknown.
The book:
Ship of Theseus, the final novel by a prolific but enigmatic writer named V.M. Straka, in which a man with no past is shanghaied onto a strange ship with a monstrous crew and launched onto a disorienting and perilous journey.
The writer: Straka, the incendiary and secretive subject of one of the world's greatest mysteries, a revolutionary about whom the world knows nothing apart from the words he wrote and the rumors that swirl around him.
The readers: Jennifer and Eric, a college senior and a disgraced grad student, both facing crucial decisions about who they are, who they might become, and how much they're willing to trust another person with their passions, hurts, and fears.
S., conceived by filmmaker J. J. Abrams and written by award-winning novelist Doug Dorst, is the chronicle of two readers finding each other in the margins of a book and enmeshing themselves in a deadly struggle between forces they don't understand, and it is also Abrams and Dorst's love letter to the written word.

精彩书评
"The best-looking book I've ever seen. . . . The book is so perfectly realized that it's easy to fall under its spell. . . . If you want to write a romantic mystery meta-novel in which two bibliophiles investigate the conspiracy around an enigmatic Eastern European author, you couldn't choose a better team." --Joshua Rothan,
New Yorker,"Impressively smart, engaging . . . Filled with secrets and stories that are endlessly beguiling and inviting . . . Reading S., and trying to decode everything [was] an incredibly enjoyable, fun experience, as well as a particularly immersive one. . . . For all its mysteries and intrigues, this is a book about the value of books, and what they can offer us that other storytelling mediums cannot." --
Wired,"
S. is gorgeous, a masterpiece of verisimilitude. . . . The book's spiritual cousin is A.S. Byatt's
Possession. . . . The brilliance of
S. is less in its showy exterior than the intimate and ingeniously visual way it shows how others' words become pathways to our lives and relationships." --
Washington Post,"Both as literature and as a physical object, S. is a profound and tremendous work of art. . . . Brilliantly conceived and perfectly executed, the book harkens back to a golden age of storytelling. . . . An audacious literary achievement that calls to mind Vladimir Nabokov's
Pale Fire, Chris Ware's
Building Stories and even Charles Portis'
Masters of Atlantis." --
Miami Herald,"Reading
S. is fun, and the book feels alive . . . Gloriously embroidered with marginalia and jammed with artifacts inserted between its pages . . . A celebration of the book as a physical thing." --
Chicago Tribune,"Both as literature and as a physical object,
S. is a profound and tremendous work of art."—

这本书是美国的J. J.和道斯特两人一起创作而成。十多年前,J. J. 在旅途中看到一本陌生人留下的书,扉页写着:“看完请留给下一个读者。”J. J.开始想象一本书能通过何种形式,连接起两个素未谋面的读者。《S.》的构想诞生了。2011年,J. J. 去找道斯特,两人携手创作了这本书。“手写留言”的叙事手法是J. J. 的创意,而热爱文学的男女主角的性格设定则是出自道斯特。

几年前逛京东还不是那么的信任京东,现在信赖首选京东,默默哒一直看着它一年一年发展的越来越好,心里也在为京东发展壮大而加油打气。为什么我喜欢京东购物,因为可以当天买自己喜欢的商品,明天就可以到达客户的家中,为什么我所有的评价都相同,因为在京东买的东西太多太多,商品积累的太多没有评价,最佩服的,还是京东物流,有时晚上11点前动动手指,购买的商品,第二天上午就送到单位或者家里,还可以刷卡付款。自营的商品挺有保证,售后,有问题打专属客服热线。客服很赞,一句话的事儿,直接上门取件退,上门更换新商品,家电有价保,一个月退货,半年换货,实体店儿弱爆了,根本没有竞争力与京东相提并论;比老家的商铺街上的价格省了一大截票子哈,宝宝平时基本不逛街,在家逛京东商城就能买到合意的超值商品,有些明显比超市还划算,而且还一模一样的吃喝生活用品吧!既省钱,又节省时间,永远支持信誉商家《京东》
