The Secret of Rover目录

Nobel Prize winner Samuel Beckett was one of the most profoundly original writers of the 20th century. He gave expression to the anguish and isolation of the individual consciousness with a purity and minimalism that have altered the shape of world literature. A tremendously influential poet and dramatist, Beckett spoke of his prose fiction as the "important writing," the medium in which he distilled his ideas most powerfully. Here, for the first time, his short prose is gathered in a definitive, complete volume by leading Beckett scholar S. E. Gontarski.

Isaac is the new kid in town. His mother, Vera, is in the hospital with a mysterious illness, and the only person left to care for Isaac is his distant grandfather. Friendless and often alone, Isaac loses himself in his collection of optical illusions, including a strange mirror box that he finds in his new house, left behind by the previous tenants. Designed for amputees, it creates the illusion of a second limb. Lonely Isaac wishes someone would reach out to him, and then someone does—a phantom limb within the mirror box! It signs to Isaac about a growing danger: someone who has murdered before and is out to get Vera next. The only way Isaac can solve the mystery and save his mother is with the help of the mirror box. But can he trust the phantom limb?

In The Classic Mantle, acclaimed sportswriter Buzz Bissinger tells the story of Mickey Mantle's unforgettable career. Mantle has long been considered one of baseball's most memorable figuresplaying his entire 18-year baseball career for the New York Yankees (195168), winning 3 American League MVP titles, playing in 20 All-Star games, and winning 7 World Series. Today, more than 40 years after his retirement, he still holds 6 World Series records, including most home runs (18). Bissinger goes beyond the statistics to bring Mantle to life, and stunning photographs by Marvin E. Newman make this book a fitting tribute to Mantle's career and his lasting impact on the sport of baseball. Praise for The Classic Mantle: Even if you're a Yankee hater, you can't help but love this bookand Mickey Mantle.” The Buffalo News

11,002 Things to Be Miserable About is a list of all the reasons NOT to wake up in the morning. Ironically enough, when you put all of them under one cover, it's actually very funny. This decidedly absurd inventory of misery is perfect for sardonic and disaffected youth, for people seeking gifts for Traumatic Event Birthdays (like 21, 25, 30, 40, and, well, anything after 40), and for anyone else with an offbeat sense of humor. Enjoy. Some of the entries are pretty basic, like imitation crabmeat, student loans, and David Hasselhoff, but other entries actually include educational things, like: Dust mites, which make up one-third of the weight of a six-year-old pillow. See, you can laugh and learn.

泽旺邀请我们暑假到白玉县作客，说那儿的春天如同山外的阳春三月：“风儿是那么的柔：天空是那么的明净；朵朵红的、白的云与地上红的花、白的花默默相对，似在相互倾诉那许许多多不愿人知晓的什么秘密；站在山岗上，你可以领略到山外阳春三月也不曾有过的美妙，你还可以听到不远处寺院传来的袅袅钟声……”泽旺的这一番描述，的确勾起我对雪域白玉县的向往。

外面下着大雨，车窗外白茫茫一片。乡村巴士横七竖八地躺在湖岸路边，像被大雨淋趴的旱鸭子。偶尔有撑着雨伞的行人零零星星地躲进车里，倒不像赶路，而像避雨，因为许久都见不到有车出发。林向西猜想，那些被大雨堵在车里的行人一定跟他一样焦虑。终于有一辆巴士满员，吭哧着挪窝了，林向西的目光追随那辆车消失在雨中，不禁自问：我还要等多久呢？他没有答案。县长在电话里说他也不能自主安排时间。县长不能自主安排时间，乡长就得提前来候着，这是游戏规则。可是县长怎么会不能自主安排时间呢？
