THE LILAC BUS

Book ID/图书代码: 03035007B14125

English Summary/英文概要: The lilac-coloured minibus belongs to Tom. Each Friday night it is a meeting place for the same seven people who use it to travel home from Dublin to spend the weekend in Rathdoon. Each one has an inner life unknown to those fellow passengers. The author also wrote "Silver Wedding".

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 每個週五晚上,一輛紫丁香色的迷你巴士會從都柏林開往愛爾蘭Rathdoon鎮,車上總有七位乘客,每週末要在兩地往返,這其中有總愛開玩笑的銀行搬運工,也有富有醫生家的小姐,她們來回兩地都各有各的原因。 他們的目的地是Rathdoon,在這個愛爾蘭村莊,每家每戶的故事都眾人皆知,即使是醜聞也藏不了多久。這一周,紫丁香的小巴士到達目的地時,乘客們驚訝地發現,他們的私生活已經被揭開,反襯出對心靈的背叛,比如一個年輕人犯的罪,或是八位激情四溢的男男女女們實現夢想的機會。(Celia)
