商品简介
“[Wilder's] finest and most beautiful novel. . . . Spanning two continents and several generations, it begins as a murder mystery and goes on to tell a story, at once dramatic and philosophical, about the range of human courage, aspirations, steadfastness, weakness, defeat and victory.” — New York Post This beautiful edition of Thornton Wilder’s renowned National Book Award–winning novel features a foreword by John Updike and an afterword by Tappan Wilder, who draws on unique sources as Wilder’s unpublished letters, handwritten annotations, and other illuminating documentary material. At once a murder mystery and a philosophical tale, The Eighth Day is a “suspenseful and deeply moving” (New York Times) work of classic stature that has been hailed as a great American epic. Set in a mining town in southern Illinois, the novels centers around two families blasted apart when the patriarch of one family, John Ashley, is accused of murdering his best friend. Ashley's miraculous jailbreak on the eve of his execution and his subsequent flight to South America trigger a powerful story tracing the fates of all those whose lives are forever changed by the tragedy: Ashley himself, his wife and children, and the wife and children of the victim. “[怀尔德]***、*美丽的小说。 。 。 。它跨越两大洲和几代人，从一个谋杀之谜开始，然后讲述一个既充满戏剧性又富有哲理的故事，讲述人类的勇气、抱负、坚定、弱点、失败和胜利。” ——《纽约邮报》这本美丽的版本是桑顿·怀尔德著名的国家图书奖获奖小说，由约翰·厄普代克撰写的前言和塔潘·怀尔德的后记，后者借鉴了怀尔德未发表的信件、手写注释和其他富有启发性的文献材料等独特来源。 《第八天》是一部谋杀悬疑剧和哲学故事，是一部“悬疑且感人至深”（《纽约时报》）的经典作品，被誉为美国伟大的史诗。小说以伊利诺伊州南部的一个矿业小镇为背景，以当一个家庭的族长约翰·阿什利被指控谋杀他*好的朋友时，两个家庭被炸得四分五裂。阿什利在被处决前夕奇迹般越狱，随后逃往南美洲，引发了一个震撼人心的故事，讲述了所有因这场悲剧而永远改变生活的人的命运：阿什利本人、他的妻子和孩子，以及阿什利的妻子和孩子。受害者。
