DANGEROUS LOVE
Book ID/图书代码: 12844007B17495
English Summary/英文概要: A major new novel from the Booker-prize winning Nigerian author set in Nigeria; a country failing to come to terms with the atrocity of a recent civil war and the echo of that violence in the life of Omovo; an office worker and artist, living in a compound with his second wife and father, but passionately and hopelessly in love with Ifeyinwa; a beautiful young married woman.
Chinese Summary/中文概要: 作者情感表达最直接生动的优秀作品。讲述了17世纪尼日利亚内战结束后的社会正处于贪污,自我猜疑,新旧生活方式相斗争的后殖民时期,当时上演的一幕令人心碎的爱情故事。并非家庭压力而是主人公所生存的“非常环境”阻挠了这对命中注定的恋人,谱写出一曲平凡人在艰苦条件下绝处逢生的赞歌,在绝望和腐败之中,爱情仍能像花儿那样盛开。(zy)
