PARADIME

Book ID/图书代码: 04560015B79475

English Summary/英文概要: From the prize winning author of Limitless, Paradime is a novel for fans of the great ’70s conspiracy thrillers, rebooted for today’s ever-globalising world.

15 What they really don’t need…is some emotional, guilt-ridden wreck of a guy walking the streets of Manhattan like a goddamned time bomb.

Daniel Lynch is adrift, jobless and increasingly alienated from his girlfriend since returning from Afghanistan, unable to process what it was he saw there while working for the private contractor, Gideon Logistics.

As he tries to confront the injustice of what he witnessed, he soon realises the true horror of the situation he’s in, and the lengths to which an international corporation will go to cover up their interests.

Just as his life is spinning further out of control, he sees something truly uncanny, and a possibility arises that will either save his life or finally destroy it.

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 来自 Limitless的获奖作者,Paradime是一部为全球书迷重新引导的伟大的70年代惊悚恐怖小说。

他们所不需要的是一个情绪化的,被愧疚感缠身的人走在曼哈顿的大街上像一个该死的定时炸弹一样的描写。

Daniel Lynch是一个漂泊不定的无业之人。自从阿富汗回来之后因无法处理当他为私人承包商基甸物流工作时他所看到的而和女友愈发疏远。

当他试图面对他亲眼见证的不公时,很快意识到他所处情况的真正恐怖以及一个国际化企业将会去掩盖其利益的篇幅们。

正如他的生活进一步失控,他看到一些真正不可思议的事情。以及可能出现的可能性是用来挽救他的生命或者最终被它所摧毁。(LNL)

Awards/获奖情况:对Alan Glynn 的赞美

‘罕见的合理......我很长时间没有读过如此巧妙地对于这样一个多层次的傲慢,贪婪与狂妄自大的熟练写照” - 作为出版商John le Carré, 24 和James Ellroy 声称, 但Glynn的天赋是他自己的,他推动情节的能力是让人大跌眼镜。“卫报上关于Bloodland的评价

Praise for Alan Glynn
Winner of the Irish Crime Fiction Book of the Year 2011 for Bloodland
‘Scarily plausible…I’ve not read such a multi-layered, expertly plotted portrayal of arrogance, greed and hubris for a long time – there are, as the publishers claim, echoes of John le Carré, 24 and James Ellroy here, but Glynn’s talent is all his own, and his ability to ratchet up the tension is eye-popping.’ Guardian on Bloodland
‘A terrific read…completely involving.’ George Pelecanos on Winterland
‘Ripped from tomorrow’s headlines, Bloodland is irresistible.’ Val McDermid
‘A hugely relevant, undeniably compelling thriller.’ Chris Pavone on Graveland
