TWO MORE PINTS
Book ID/图书代码: 03540014B75149
English Summary/英文概要: Two men meet for a pint – or two – in a Dublin pub. They chew the fat, set the world to rights, curse the ref, say a last farewell… In this second collection of comic dialogues Doyle’s drinkers ponder:
- a topless Kate Middleton
- Barack and Michelle Obama (‘fuckin’ gorgeous’)
- David Beckham (‘Would you tattoo your kids’ names on the back of your neck?’ ‘They wouldn’t fit’)
- Jimmy Savile (‘a gobshite’)
- the financial crisis (again)
- abortion (again)
- and horsemeat in your burger…
Once again, those we have lost troop through their thoughts - Lou Reed, Seamus Heaney, Reg Presley, Nelson Mandela (‘he should never have left the Four Tops’), Phil Everly, Margaret Thatcher, Shirley Temple - and they still have that unerring ability to ask the really fundamental questions like ‘Would you take penalty points for your missis?’
Chinese Summary/中文概要: 在都柏林的一间小酒吧里,两个男人因为一品脱酒,又抑或是两品脱,而相遇了。他们闲谈,他们纠正这个世界,他们咒骂裁判员,他们说着最后的告别。。。。。。在这部充满喜感对话的第二本选集中,道尔笔下的酒徒们思考着的是:
--上半身裸露的凯特•米德尔顿(凯特王妃)
--贝拉克•奥巴马与米歇尔•奥巴马(好“配”的一对)
--大卫•贝克汉姆(“你会把你孩子的名字纹在脖子背后吗?”“那肯定不合适”)
--吉米•萨维尔("满口胡言")
--金融危机(又来了)
--流产(再一次)
--无牛肉三明治里出现了马肉。。。。。。
再一次的,我们对于他们的思维毫无头绪--娄•里德、谢默斯•西尼、雷哲•普雷斯利、尼尔森•曼德拉(“他永远都不该离开Four Tops”)、菲尔•艾佛利、玛格丽特•撒切尔、秀兰•邓波儿---时至今日,他们仍然有着准确无误地直击最关键问题的能力,像是“你会为老婆交罚金吗?”(DC)
