Somewhere in South America, at the home of the country's vice president, a lavish birthday party is being held in honor of the powerful businessman Mr. Hosokawa. Roxanne Coss, opera's most revered soprano, has mesmerized the international guests with her singing. It is a perfect evening -- until a band of gunwielding terrorists takes the entire party hostage. But what begins as a panicked, life-threatening scenario slowly evolves into something quite different, a moment of great beauty, as terrorists and hostages forge unexpected bonds and people from different continents become compatriots, intimate friends, and lovers. </p>

脑洞开的有点大啊....为什么最后terrorists和hostage会一起在草坪上愉快的玩耍...唯一感动的地方大概就是那个法国外交官对着家里的留言电话绝望地大叫 je t'amie, je t'adore

还是被Patchett 的写作征服。她笔下的人物总能让人很自然地感受和理解他们的内在,不管他们所处的环境和遭遇是否与读者相去甚远。我个人还是更喜欢她的Commonwealth 和the Dutch House,可能是因为Bel Canto is a tiny bit too romantic for me. 但我喜欢这个畅想,也无比赞同艺术对人类重要性再怎么歌颂也不嫌过的,尤其是在越来越重视科技、... 还是被Patchett 的写作征服。她笔下的人物总能让人很自然地感受和理解他们的内在,不管他们所处的环境和遭遇是否与读者相去甚远。我个人还是更喜欢她的Commonwealth 和the Dutch House,可能是因为Bel Canto is a tiny bit too romantic for me. 但我喜欢这个畅想,也无比赞同艺术对人类重要性再怎么歌颂也不嫌过的,尤其是在越来越重视科技、发展智能等等这些关键词的时代。 (展开)

先看了电影再读的小说。电影虽然改编得还不错,但肯定不可能像小说描写得这么细腻和深入。作者文笔非常优美生动,对人性的刻画真实感人,读起来是一种享受。
