DEVOTION

Book ID/图书代码： 12844015B80616

English Summary/英文概要： The new novel from the award-winning author of The Marlowe Papers April is angry. Dr Finlay Logan is broken. Only nineteen, April is an elective mute, accused of a religiously motivated atrocity. Logan, a borderline suicidal criminal psychologist, must assess her sanity in a world where - ten years after the death of Richard Dawkins - moves have been made to classify religious fundamentalism as a form of mental illness. Asking fundamental questions about the nature of reality, Barber skillfully explores the balance between the emotional and rational sides of human experience. Told in Ros Barber’s trademark mesmerizing prose, Devotion is an extraordinary, provocative novel from one of the brightest rising stars in fiction.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 本书是获奖小说《The Marlowe Papers》的作者的最新小说。

April很愤怒。Finlay Logan博士破产了。只有19岁的April患有选择性缄默症，被指控犯有出于宗教动机的暴行。边缘性自杀犯罪心理学家Logan必须评估她的精神状况。在Richard Dawkins死后的第十年，人们已经做出了多方努力，试图将宗教原教旨主义分类为一种精神疾病。作者对现实的本质提出了诸多基本问题，娴熟地探讨了人类经验的情感和理智的平衡。小说以作者标志性的散文模式展开，是这位小说界明星的又一部杰出力作。（LYR）
