编辑推荐 Ocean Sea has the trance-like,timeless quality of a fairy-tale,the strangeness of amedieval cartographer's impression of the seas,and reads like ahybrid of Jonathan Swift,M.R.James and Italo Calvino. 内容推荐 A number-one bestseller on publication in Italy, City is the dazzling new novel from one of the world's most inventive and invigorating writers. In the words of the author: '1 wanted to write a book that moved like someone who gets lost in the city. Then, when he gets home, they ask him what he saw. I saw City ...The characters - the streets - are many. There is a barber who on Thursdays cuts hair for no charge, there is a giant, and a mute. There is a boy called Gould, and a girl called Shatzy Shell. There are professors, people who play football, a black kid who plays basketball and never fails to score, and there's also a general. 'The stories are neighbourhoods, the characters are streets. The rest is made up of the passing of time, the desire to wander and the need to observe. I travelled within City for three years. The reader, if he likes, can take the same path. This is what is beautiful, and difficult, in all books: the challenge of undertaking the past journey of another.' City is a magical adventure in the modern metropolis. |
