50 Great Short Stories (Milton Crane) 美国短篇小说精粹50篇
美国文学批评家Milton Crane在“50 Great Short Story”这本书的前面有一段话，对什么才是好的短篇（What makes a great short story ?）作了简洁、精彩的阐述： The sudden unforgettable revelation of charater; the vision of a world through another’s eyes; the glimpse of truth; the capture of a moment in time. All this the short story, at its best, is uniquely capable of conveying, for in its very shortness lies its greatest strength. It can discover depths of meaning in the casual word or action; it can suggest in a page what could not be started in a volume.

Collectors 收藏家 David Baldacci作品 ISBN9780330523516
The four disillusioned, aging gentlemen featured in Baldacci's2005 best-seller, The Camel Club , are back in this engagingoffering. The ringleader of the eccentric Washington, D.C., group(comprising obsessive-compulsive computer-whiz Milton Farb,decorated Vietnam vet Rueben Rhodes, and slightly rumpledlibrary-scholar Caleb Shaw) is an ex-CIA conspiracy theorist whogoes by the pseudonym Oliver Stone. All are reunited when Shaw'sboss, the Library of Congress' director of Rare Books and SpecialCollections, is found dead. (Might he have been killed forpossession of a rare collection of Puritan psalms?) Meanwhile, afew hundred miles away, sexy scam artist Annabelle Conroy avengesher mother's death with a fiendishly clever con pulled on anefarious Atlantic City casino magnate. Though his two plotsconverge in a rather contrived way, Baldacci delivers crisp,economical prose and a cast of spies, misfits, and assassins thatwould make even the most patriotic citizen question the Americanpolitical system.

LIFE EXPECTANCY（ISBN=9780553588248） 英文原版
Critics found Life Expectancy somewhat, well, unexpected. Fromthe master of horror, suspense, and SF comes a novel about love,family, and good versus evil, all wrapped up in a warm, fuzzypackage. Sure, Koontz's newest novel contains variations of thehorror elements that define his previous works (The Taking, TheFace), but his characters are so endearing that it's hard to seehow anything bad could happen to them. In fact, despite hisgrandfather's prediction, Tommy's five bad days turn out to be botha curse and a blessing. Reviewers found Koontz a great storyteller,despite a few overwritten parts, false cliffhangers, and hackneyedhumor. Kudos to Koontz for taking risks in this bizarre, cleverstory.

"Worse than the ordinary miserable childhood is the miserable Irish childhood," writes Frank McCourt in Angela's Ashes. "Worse yet is the miserable Irish Catholic childhood." Welcome, then, to the pinnacle of the miserable Irish Catholic childhood. Born in Brooklyn in 1930 to recent Irish immigrants Malachy and Angela McCourt, Frank grew up in Limerick after his parents returned to Ireland because of poor prospects in America. It turns out that prospects weren't so great back in the old country either--not with Malachy for a father. A chronically unemployed and nearly unemployable alcoholic, he appears to be the model on which many of our more insulting cliches about drunken Irish manhood are based. Mix in abject poverty and frequent death and illness and you have all the makings of a truly difficult early life. Fortunately, in McCourt's able hands it also has all the makings for a compelling memoir. --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

Extension du domaine de la lutte
Ville de banlieue, chambre anonyme, petit travail, salairecorrect, peu d'intérêt, pas d'amis, de vagues relations. Aucuneenvie, plus de désir, quelques habitudes. C'est tout un monde dedésespoir et de non-sens qui s'ouvre en même temps que commence ceroman des perdants et des abandonnés, ceux qui ont érigé la routineen mode de vie, le renoncement en principe, le défaitisme envaleur. On pourrait en rester là : mais l'auteur va tellement loindans sa peinture clinique, crue, désenchantée, qu'on relève la têteet le défi. Plus que son antihéros, en tout cas : c'est du moins cequ'il faut se souhaiter... ?crit avant Les Particules élémentaires, le roman sulfureux quifit la notoriété de Michel Houellebecq, Extension du domaine de lalutte est de la même veine : plume acérée, aride, assassine. On ensort laminé, mais bien déterminé à continuer la lutte, et c'est làque tout le paradoxe de la littérature prend un sens. Un romansaisissant à lire avec précautions. --Karla Manuele

Fiction. WATT was the beginning of Samuel Becket's post-warliterary career, the fruition of the years in hiding in theVaucluse mountains from the Gestapo, which also largely inspiredWAITING FOR GODOT. But it remains, unlike the work that followedit, extremely Irish, a philosophical novel full of the grim humourthat was already his trade-mark in such earlier fictions as MOREPRICKS THAN KICKS and MURPHY. The perambulations of WATT,especially in the home of the eccentric Mr. Knott, and thesketching of logic to elicit meaning, must be among the most comicinventions of modern literature. First published by the libertineOlympia Press in 1953 it has established itself as one of the mostquoted and best-loved of Becket's novels. The typographicaloddities and omissions are as Beckett left the text.
