MOLLY OF THE MALL

Book ID/图书代码: 00110919C00015

English Summary/英文概要: Aspiring novelist Molly MacGregor’s life is strikingly different from a literary heroine’s. Named for one of literature’s least romantic protagonists, Moll Flanders, Molly lives in Edmonton, a city she finds irredeemably unromantic, where she writes university term papers instead of novels, and sells shoes in the Largest Mall on Earth. There she seeks the other half of her young life’s own matched pair. Delightfully whimsical, Heidi L.M. Jacobs’ Molly of the Mall: Literary Lass and Purveyor of Fine Footwear explores its namesake’s love for the written word, love for the wrong men (and the right one), and her complicated love for her city.

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 有抱负的小说家莫莉•麦格雷戈的生活与文学女主人公截然不同。莫莉的名字取自文学作品中最不浪漫的主人公之一莫尔•弗兰德斯,她住在埃德蒙顿,她觉得这座城市毫无浪漫可言,她在这里写大学学期论文,而不是写小说,在地球上最大的购物中心卖鞋。在那里,她寻找她年轻生命中的另一半。海蒂•雅各布斯饰演的莫莉性格古怪,令人愉悦。她饰演的莫莉是文学作品中的少女,也是精品鞋履的商家。(WYL)

Awards/获奖情况:“海蒂•雅各布斯在《莫莉》中塑造了一个性格古怪、令人愉悦的主角。她总是从自己喜爱的文学作品中汲取灵感,以自己独特的、充满幻想的方式来对待生活。这部电影讲述的是上世纪90年代中期埃德蒙顿奥斯丁式女主人公的噩梦和浪漫喜剧的不幸遭遇。”——迪娜•德尔•巴克亚,《这是件大事》的作者!

“海蒂•雅各布斯抓住了这个机会。《商场里的莫莉》,我不停地念叨着,滑稽地传达了那些读过一本书然后去商场的人的倦怠感,就像它捕捉到了每一门本科英语课程的萎靡不振和矫情做作一样。《莫莉》是一部欢快的文学爱情片,故事发生在20世纪90年代的埃德蒙顿冰冷的月球表面。”——基特•多布森,《M:解密加拿大的购物》的作者

“我喜欢这本小说。”——凯莉,《把这个递给我》的作者

"Heidi L.M. Jacobs has created a delightfully whimsical protagonist in Molly. Always informed by the characters from literature she loves, she approaches life in her own unique, and fanciful, way. Such fun to follow the retail nightmares and romantic comedy mishaps of this Austenian heroine of mid-90s Edmonton." Dina Del Bucchia, author of It’s a Big Deal!

"Heidi L.M. Jacobs nails it. Molly of the Mall, /i> relentlessly, hilariously conveys the ennui felt by anyone who has ever read a book and then gone to the mall, just as it captures the malaise and pretension of every undergraduate English course ever. A rollicking literary romance set in the icy moonscape of 1990s Edmonton, Molly is wicked good fun." Kit Dobson, author of Malled: Deciphering Shopping in Canada

"I loved this novel." Kerry ClarePickle Me This
