内容简介

London 1862. Sue Trinder, orphaned at birth, grows up among petty thieves - fingersmiths - under the rough but loving care of Mrs Sucksby and her 'family'. But from the moment she draws breath, Sue's fate is linked to that of another orphan growing up in a gloomy mansion not too many miles away.

    Maud也真是悲催,出生在疯人院,童年陪着疯子们度过,这就够能扭曲人格了,之后还被她uncle领回那淫荡庄园(庄园不淫荡,但里面藏着淫荡图书馆),给那些猥琐的叔叔们朗读无比淫秽的书,再怎么内心强大的人都不带这么玩儿的。长大后性格越发抑郁乖戾还有虐待他人的倾向(悲催的Agnes)。而Sue虽然身处一群骗子中间,但人家出淤泥而不染啊,两人朝夕相处相互同情之下渐生情愫也是难免的事。Sue后来的飞越疯人院充分显示了她的聪明才智比Maud强多了(她俩又多了个共同话题)。可惜事实证明了她是个被人卖了还帮忙数钱的单纯小孩。SW的文字很优美,跟整个故事一样压抑,当然当感情被释放出来的时候我还是挺不好意思看的。*BLUSH* 反正这两人就这么虐来虐去一个腹黑一个柔情似水~总之也可总结为一句话:都是她妈逼的!03-31

    零星有几个特别出彩的句子,气氛有时创造得也十分到位,就是剧情太戏剧化,看到一半就让我深深感到—这分明是胡编乱造嘛。换错孩子、策划阴谋十七年、骗中骗,感觉有些像国产电视剧的桥段了。中部为了渲染女主们处境艰辛,写了一段又一段重复冗长的段落,险些让我看不下去。女主持刀与众人在贼窝里对峙的段落,本身可以针锋相对十分惊险刺激的,作者却把rivers和sucksby写得如此踟躇无力,而后飞快地用蹩脚凶杀案将矛盾避开了,太令人失望。sucksby被处死的段落堪称整本书最精彩的部分。苏珊了悟maud的一片苦心的部分进行得太快了,穿插上回忆抒情效果会更好。总之是,该快不快,该慢不慢,情节太假。五星改三星。语言倒还是不错的。07-22

    太多的逆转中精神病院门口的那一幕最最惊心动魄。莫德如此精致而脆弱,对比起她在伦敦街头的无措,Susan在精神病院里的顽强生命力似乎让人相信二十年前那个母亲的决定可能是正确的。什么都比不上人生初见的情动。03-05

    剧情绝了。细节也照顾的非常周到,并且丝毫不做作,恰到好处。TP角色随着剧情而转换,真美好而自然。04-08
