孩子读的一本小说,放在了客厅的沙发上,刚才老婆拿起来前后翻了翻递给了我,让我也看一下。先摘两条赞词吧:
"Gregory David Robert's fire novel, Shantaram, is guaranteed to make your life seem a little mundane…Mr. Roberts was compared to everyone from Melville to Hemingway. " ---The Wall Street Journal
" Few stand out quite like Shantaram... nothing if not entertaining. Sometimes a big story is its own best reward." --- The New York Times
看完后我一脸苦相,然后老婆笑了,我也跟着大笑起来,为什么呢?大家看看作者的经历:
系列持枪抢劫犯,在澳大利亚被判刑19年,后来越狱跑到印度孟买,开了个医疗诊所,同时从事造假走私枪支贩卖并为黑帮做打手,再次入狱服刑后释放。
这样经历的人成了作家!
对比一下苦命的我,感慨人生不要太那个!(我无语了)
