THE WOODEN NICKEL
Book ID/图书代码: 00353011B51196
English Summary/英文概要: The Wooden Nickel is a boat. Its owner, Lucky Lunt, is an endangered species: a third-generation lobsterman who works the same Maine waters as his father and grandfather. But the world is changing faster than Lucky can fathom - even his heart is failing him - and soon he is embroiled in a turf war that forces him to abandon all the rules of the sea. Capturing all the comedy and pathos of Lucky’s epic battle for survival, this remarkable novel announces the arrival of a startling mature and important new voice in fiction.
Chinese Summary/中文概要: 木硬币是一艘船。它的主人——Lucky Lunt同他的父辈和祖辈一样,靠缅因州水域生活。但是这个世界的变化之快超出Lucky Lunt的想象,他不久后卷入了一场地盘之争,迫使他放弃对缅因州水域的管辖权力。这部小说描述了Lucky Lunt这场悲喜加交,如史诗般的生存之战,是小说中出众,理智,重要的新声音。(兼职翻译-XAT)
