第83章 American University: For God and country

A self-confessed forger, cheat, thief, and petty criminal, William Palmer was also a surgeon and a racehorse owner during the Victorian era who doped horses, fixed races, philandered unapologetically, and generally behaved as an all-around rogue. But the crime for which he was condemned was altogether more serious: poisoning numerous members of his family as well as a close friend. Based on the historic trial of a man characterized as a sociopath and a serial killer, Robert Graves tells the story from the defendant's point of view, the story of a man who was deeply flawed but ultimately not beyond redemption.Based on a historical trial held in 1856, Robert Graves' novel is brimming with humor, emotion, and social commentary. Told through the eyes of both friends and enemies, Palmer comes to life as a not-unsympathetic antihero.

Twenty years her senior, darkly handsome, and almost embarrassingly virile, he is a suave filmmaker, a confirmed bachelor, and the perfect match for the perfect affairbut one with a twist. Amalie isn't looking for love, but she's hungry for pleasure. Written with cool-headed intensity and sexual heat, Crush is an unforgettable odyssey through the wilds of desire into the badlands of erotic obsession.

The war between the Greeks and the Trojans has reached a fever pitch. Offended by Agamemnon, the great Greek warrior Achilles is in his tent, refusing to fight. But then Trojan prince Hector slaughters Patroclus, Achilles' close friend. Willing or not, Achilles must take revenge for his friend's death, even if it will result in his own.The Anger of Achilles is a novelized interpretation of Homer's Iliad, told by noted classicist and historical novelist Robert Graves. In this innovative take on the classic tale, Achilles comes to life in all his vivid rage, bravery, passion, and lust for battle. Combining his advanced expertise in ancient Greek warfare and culture with a talent for telling a compelling story, Robert Graves is the ideal translator to bring this ancient epic of war to a modern audience.

这个案件是大头对我讲的。他是我居住辖区的公安分局刑警。他在对我讲述这一案件之前，先说了一句类似开场白的话——不要以为奇异的故事只能发生在戏剧里。实际情况是，不管我们的现实生活多么平庸而沉闷，它所缺少的从来也不是戏剧性。如果我们没有意识到这一点，那只能说明我们对生活的感受和认识太迟钝太粗浅。他的这番话使得整个叙述在开头时候便蒙上了神秘的色彩。事情应该发生在那天黄昏，差不多就是电视节目播放到新闻联播那个时候。因为恐怖总是发生在人们意想不到的时刻，而一天当中只有这个时间人们精力最不集中。就在这个万家灯火相继点燃的时候，有一个居住在城市郊区的菜农到当地派出所报案。
