2012 MAN BOOKER PRIZE SHORTLISTED. Swimming Home is a subversive page-turner, a merciless gaze at the insidious harm that depression can have on apparently stable, well-turned-out people. Set in a summer villa, the story is tautly structured, taking place over a single week in which a group of beautiful, flawed tourists in the French Riviera come loose at the seams.

With its deep psychology, biting humour and deceptively light surface, it wears its darkness lightly.

太烂了，什么破发神经病的闹自杀的爱写诗的去搞婚外情的植物学家，人设叠加在一起简直尴尬到爆炸。一堆在法国度假的人整天讲些有的没的，最后还硬要莫名其妙把一个人写的自杀掉，作者的笔触像幼稚的雨季高中生一样，简直是对所有自杀者和精神病者的侮辱。文笔也是特别尴尬，比如什么“虽然枪没朝他脸上射，但他脸上却有五个洞，呼吸、看东西和吃东西的洞。” 真的笑死了。。。

看googreads好评差评两边倒，文笔流畅，但是故事情节太尴尬了...一个14岁小朋友的角度交代不了太多深度人物关系，反而显得琐碎细节太多太多
