很开心有评论早就点出这是部娘炮版的Huckleberry Finn。本来开始还挺喜欢略带哥特的调调,可是越读越觉得卡波特的环境描写有点过了,以致情节和冲突被冲淡,空留一些情绪碎片。维基告诉我,小说的主体包括寻父、爱缺、度人、以及成长中的自我认同等等,可是我只读到了虚空和无助。但话说回来,文字确实非常优美。

作者的用词实在是鬼斧神工,所以他的做作和矫情变得可以忍受。作为一本嗑了药的gothic “驱魔”小说,整个阅读体验还是非常不错的。

2013-04-05 感觉根本没有读懂……书中有很多南方口语,人物的对话还有好多是有错误的英语……好难读。这就是我读了一半就想弃但最后强忍着翻完的书。

胆怯而神经质的支吾声,零落分散,勉强曲到中段突然灌入连绵好几页的randolph波澜起伏的独白回忆,读得很带劲,紧接着又落回少年人的气短narrative直至结尾。挺美的,虽然对southern gothic不那么感冒。书名尤其美。

整本书就像一个繁复而暧昧的梦境,潜意识小径分叉的废弃花园
