    THE DANCER UPSTAIRS

    Book ID/图书代码: 00200019C00020

    English Summary/英文概要: This novel explores one of the most astonishing stories in the whole history of twentieth century terrorism. Colonel Rejas was the policeman charged with the task of capturing the Peruvian guerrilla leader Ezequiel, but having been dismissed he finds the burden of silence and secrecy too heavy. On meeting Dyer, a foreign correspondent, he is moved to relate the tortuous progress of the manhunt for the first time. The Dancer Upstairs is a story reminiscent of Graham Greene and John le Carré - tense, intricate and heartbreaking.

    Chinese Summary/中文概要: 这部小说探讨了整个二十世纪恐怖主义史上最令人震惊的故事之一。雷亚(Rejas)上校是负责抓捕秘鲁游击队领袖埃兹奎尔(Ezequiel)的警察,但被卸职后,他发现沉默和秘密对他来说心理负担太重。在会见驻外记者戴尔(Dyer)时,他第一次动情地讲述了追捕行动的曲折过程。“楼上舞者”是一部让人联想起格雷厄姆·格林(Graham Greene)和约翰•勒卡雷(John le Carré)惊险故事的作品,充满了紧张,错综复杂和阴冷的元素。(Sandy)

    Awards/获奖情况:"Shakespeare is interested in grand themes: love, vocation, politics and the corrupting power of moral and ideological absolutes... The Dancer Upstairs will be enjoyed by any kind of reader... It is enviably good, a genuinely fine novel from a writer who possesses real heart and flair" (Louis de Bernières Sunday Times)

    "Almost steams with the author’s understanding of South America and yet is somehow poetic and tender" (Observer)

    "Will count among the best work being produced by the present generation of British writers" (Independent on Sunday)

    "As cracking a story as any yarn, as informed as any journalism, and delivered with firmness and urgency" (The Times)

    "In addition to being a satisfyingly rich tale or romance this is a highly intelligent examination of Peruvian - and South American - reality... Funny and devastating... I was riveted by this superb novel" (New Statesman)
