A Dead Man in Malta 評價



網友滿意度:



不論是在學生時期或開始工作後

我對語言一直都有難以言喻的嚮往~~

自英台中水晶店文的從國中啟蒙

能夠用其他語言的邏輯來思考事情

也是一件很有趣的一件事

跟一般人喜歡用吃吃喝喝出遊玩來打發時間

我更喜歡用書籍安靜的充實自己

所以特別跟大家推薦我目前在看的

A Dead Man in Malta

非常好上手、條理分明

對於希望入門別太難的人很適合

而且這最大的成就感就是用新學的

語言查資料了XD

看自己key出之前完全不了解的文字或音

真的有滿滿的感動啊~~

希望推薦的這本書能夠讓大家都能

感受或得知識的喜悅!

一起讀書向前邁進吧!

商品訊息描述:

Malta, 1913, and hot air balloons hover over the Grand Harbour. One of them comes down in the water but no one is hurt - except that the balloonist dies later when taken into the Naval Hospital for a check-up. But he is not the only one who had died there unexpectedly, as a letter to The Times points out, and a special investigator, Seymour of the Foreign Office, is sent out from London to find out what is going on.

For in 1913 Malta is still a British protectorate, governed by the British; indeed, with its red postboxes, English beer and English language it seems like an exotic Little Britain. But the rumblings of war are reaching out to that small island in the Mediterranean and many of the old Maltese families are becoming divided in their loyalties: at the same time staunchly supportive to the British and yet starting to question Malta’s subordinate status and wondering whether the time has come to strike out an independent path for themselves.

So the letter to The Times has touched a raw nerve, as Seymour soon finds out: is it a critique of bad nursing practises? Or is there a different, more sinister explanation to these sudden deaths?

Praise for Michael Pearce’s A Dead Man in . . . series

’The steady pace, atmospheric design, and detailed description re-create a complicated city. A recommended historical series’ Library Journal

’Sheer fun’ The Times

’His sympathetic portrayal of an unfamiliar culture, impeccable historical detail and entertaining dialogue make enjoyable reading’ Sunday Telegraph
