The Hunter and Other Stories评论

A funny, bittersweet exploration of how a child can change in one short year of love, loss, and growing up…Seven-year-old Scotty Ocean decides that seven is going to be "his year." But soon after his birthday, his artist-turned-alcoholic mother abandons the family—leaving Scotty and his two older sisters alone with their father. As his perfect year is torn apart (falls apart?), Scotty begins to act out during school and takes a series of increasingly wild actions to try to win his mother back—and, when that doesn't work, to replace her.

"A dynamic story line that grips from the first chapter and doesn't let go."--Midwest Book Review, Diane Donovan (regarding Once Gone)From #1 bestselling mystery author Blake Pierce comes a new masterpiece of psychological suspense.In A TRACE OF VICE (Book #3 in the Keri Locke mystery series), Keri Locke, Missing Persons Detective in the Homicide division of the LAPD, follows a fresh lead for her abducted daughter.

Homer's Iliad, the classic tale of love and revenge, is shrewdly retold for teens in Troy High. Narrated by Cassie, a shy outsider at Troy High, the story follows the Trojans and Spartans as they declare war on the football field. After the beautiful Elena—who used to be the captain of the Spartan cheerleaders—transfers to Troy High and falls madly in love with Cassie's brother Perry, the Spartans vow that the annual homecoming game will never be forgotten. Off the football field, an escalating prank war fuels tensions between the schools. The stakes are raised when Cassie is forced to choose between the boy she loves (a Spartan) and loyalty to her family and school. Troy High will seduce readers with its cast of mythic proportions.

Picking up after the dramatic cliffhanger that ended Book Six, Sabrina and Daphne's prayers are finally answered when their parents awake from their sleeping spell. But their happy reunion is short-lived, as they are caught in the middle of a war between the Scarlet Hand and Prince Charming's Everafter army. As the family works to help the prince's ragtag group of rebels and protect their friends, Sabrina comes face-to-face with the family's deadliest enemy—the mysterious Master—who reveals a secret so shocking it will rock the entire family to its core.

Published in French in 1961, and in English in 1964, How It Is is a novel in three parts, written in short paragraphs, which tell (abruptly, cajolingly, bleakly) of a narrator lying in the dark, in the mud, repeating his life as he hears it uttered - or remembered - by another voice. Told from within, from the dark, the story is tirelessly and intimately explicit about the feelings that pervade his world, but fragmentary and vague about all else therein or beyond. Together with Molloy, How It Is counts for many readers as Beckett's greatest accomplishment in the novel form. It is also his most challenging narrative, both stylistically and for the pessimism of its vision, which continues the themes of reduced circumstance, of another life before the present, and the self-appraising search for an essential self, which were inaugurated in the great prose narratives of his earlier trilogy.

我对李工良说：“你是我一生最崇拜的人。”李工良笑了，笑意中还有些腼腆。他退休前只当了个国有企业图书馆的副馆长，而他的最高的职务曾当过军分区司令员，用现在的话来讲他怎么也该是个军级领导了。那是在1932年的春天，连长找到刚刚上任当排长的李工良，说：“刚才团长找我们过去开会，说刚组建起来的红四军团首长，要到我们团来检阅队伍。”“上咱们团来检阅的都是些什么官呀？”李工良满脸稚气地问，他还搞不清楚军团是个什么编制。李工良虽然年轻，但已经是三年多的老兵了，原来他是团长的传令兵，他的入党介绍人就是团长。

“我厌恶世间一切的黑暗罪恶，也应该厌恶你这样的坏女人，可是我发现自己做不到。”顾贤禹苦笑着抚摸女人精致的侧颜，“遇见你，就已经让我失去了自我；爱上你，就已经注定了万劫不复，而我却还是甘之如饴。”

这本书是两个人合作的产物。我是一个懒散的人，写完后就往往不去管它了。我常说：诗歌一旦写出，就与作者没有关系，诗歌有自己的命运。确实，我一些诗歌的命运经常让我惊讶。比如为5·12大地震所写的《大部分的中国人都患上了抑郁症》，由于新华社、《印度教徒报》的报道，一周之内竟传遍全世界。而且报道的标题本身也像一首沉痛的诗，新华社是“借助诗歌的力量，我们获得了坚强”，《印度教徒报》是“中国人借助诗歌克服悲伤”；还比如《流水》，曾引起轩然大波，在网上几天仅天涯社区点击率就高达二十多万，成为天涯社区一周冠军，随后被广为转贴，中国移动也将之制作为专门的手机短信供下载转发，关于它的评论也数不胜数。

我是一条蛇，青色的，全长不详，腰围不详，嘴里有多少颗牙……咳，这属于蛇的隐私，不可以在这么大庭广众的地方说。做为一条蛇精，我一不想当官二不想发财三不想嫁人谈恋爱。但是世界上的事就是这么奇怪，你越不想什么，往往就越会碰见什么。这个人，这段情，究竟是劫是缘难以论断。总之，面包会有的，爱情会有的，幸福嘛……肯定也会有的……

现代中国的文化建设是一个庞大无比的历史命题，需要几代、十几代甚至几十代中国人尤其是他们的人文学者，进行长期、艰难的心血智慧投入的伟大工程。中国精神的博大精深而又生机蓬勃的现代体系，建立它的特质和内在逻辑，它的品格和气度，它的价值观和范畴，它的理论积累和运行机制，这些都是不能一蹴而就的。就其本质而言，文化工程是一种“人心工程”，有关人的素质、情趣、价值追求、终极关怀、精神家园和人生设定的工程。可以说，文化是民族的标志，文化是民族的灵魂。正如一位学者所说：文化是我们的生命，以及外延如平原、山脉、湖泊、河流这些构成我们存在空间的核心。这种诗一般的语言深处，蕴含着历史的理性，读来有一种深邃厚重之感。
