书籍介绍

With meticulous observation and the seductive skill of a great storyteller, Vargas Llosa lures the reader into the shadow of perversion that, little by little, darkens the extraordinary happiness and harmony of his characters. The mysterious nature of happiness and above all, the corrupting power of innocence are the themes that underlie these pages, and the author has perfectly met the demands of the erotic novel, never dimming for an instant the fine poetic polish of his writing.

用户评论
理智上很难把这种作品与淫秽作品区别开,无法说出的那种感觉。
Llosa is apparently a very skilled writer. But this book is not for me. Innocence can be deceiving. Living on the edge needs a proper boundary. Realizing that our vices define who we are at moments of weakness. The only reasonable thing to do is to remove ourselves from dangerous situations. That’s humility we all need, truly.
