“史密斯将为你一一呈现好视角,就好像一个遥远的星盘,让你明白所有这些完全迥异的故事如何汇聚成一个形状 -- 一本书为例,你将明白为何这只乌鸦原本并不该存在,而这个在现实世界中生活的小男孩又是如何幸运。”--《娱乐周刊》
"史密斯仿佛是库尔特•冯内古特精神的继承人。”《书单》,星级评论
“诡异到迷人、扑朔迷离,同时睿智地叫人难以置信。”--《科克斯书评》, 星级评论
“如果你喜欢史密斯狂野又新颖的作品风格,那么你也会发现这部既有趣同时又道德上十分严肃的故事极具吸引力。”---《出版家周刊》,星级评论
“虽然看起来美国夏令营中的战争难民和一场十九世纪注定悲剧的北极探险之间并没有任何联系,而有关于这样的一则科幻故事更是无法自圆其说---然而不得不说这是一篇超现实主义巨作。”--《人物》
“史密斯的文风似乎源自某一个真诚的地方,并非是怀旧思乡之作,但却充满了青春期的不适与怒意。继其引人入胜的跨界之作Grasshopper Jungl之后,史密斯为我们带来了这部更紧凑也更充满智慧的佳作。青少年小说收藏爱好者们不可错过。”---《学校图书馆学报》
对安德鲁•史密斯的各类赞誉
“约翰•格林的粉丝们一定能明白史密斯的这部最新小说。”--VOYA 评100 Sideways Miles
“史密斯塑造了一种大胆同时搞笑的风格,书中不仅每个句子都非常抢眼,更重要的是全篇读来更是极为精炼。”《纽约时报》评100 Sideways Miles
“书中仿佛有一股真诚的暖流流过,值得一遍遍回味和分享。”– BCCB 评 100 Sideways Miles
“简直就是一部超级聪明同时又不走寻常路的小说……阅读时令人不由得屏气凝神。” – 《科克斯》评 100 Sideways Miles
“Like a constellation of distant stars, Smith aligns your perspective to see how these disparate stories actually make one shape – in this case, a crow who should not exist, and a boy who is lucky he remains among the living, too.” – Entertainment Weekly
"Smith is a spiritual heir to Kurt Vonnegut.” —Booklist, starred review
"Magnificently bizarre, irreverent and bitingly witty.” —Kirkus, starred review
“Fans of Smith’s raunchy, profane, and provocative work will find this funny but morally serious tale deeply appealing.” —Publishers Weekly, starred review
“There’s no way this sci-fi tale about a war refugee at an American summer camp and a doomed 19th-century Arctic exploration should work—but it’s a surreal masterpiece.” – People
“Smith’s writing seems to ebb from an honest place, not one of nostalgia, but of the discomfort and agony of adolescence. Smith follows up his enthralling, boundary-pushing Grasshopper Jungle with this more cohesive and brilliant work. A must-have for all YA collections.” – School Library Journal
