EXQUISITE CADAVERS

Book ID/图书代码： 03635019C00014

English Summary/英文概要： Karim, a young film-maker, carries with him the starry-eyed dreams of the Arab Revolution. Maya carries her own pressing concerns: an errant father, an unstable job, a chain-smoking habit, a sudden pregnancy. When Karim’s brother disappears in Tunis, and Karim wants to go after him, Maya must choose between her partner and her home city, her future and her history...

In a conversation between forms, fictions and truths, Exquisite Cadavers is a novel about a young couple navigating love in London, and a literary hall of mirrors about an author navigating the inspirations behind her work.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： Karim和Maya是一对恋人。住在一起的这对情侣整日为钱操心，Maya意外怀孕。但Karim还在攻读电影学位，他的导师坚持认为他所体现的艺术应该和他本人一样，具有阿拉伯文化特征。而此时的Maya不仅打着零工还要为他们这个新建立的小家操心，没有时间戒烟的她，更不用提生孩子了。 以片段为叙述方式，配以注脚穿插其中的这部小说既是一部影响深远的作品，又是一部无国界的爱情故事。(Sandy)

Awards/获奖情况：Exquisite Cadavers’ experiment delivers a book that is slyly funny and profoundly thoughtful. It is common for critics and readers to belittle women by assuming they write out of catharsis rather than to create. Exquisite Cadavers is not just a fierce rebuttal. It’s a work of brilliance., Financial Times
