书籍简介

**入围 2024 年布克奖**

“她这一代激动人心的作家”布雷特·伊斯顿·埃利斯

“用一种冷静、博学的姿态重新诠释了间谍小说”埃尔南·迪亚兹

“引人入胜……约翰·勒卡雷的《杀死比尔》”观察者

迷人而狡猾的美国雇佣间谍萨迪·史密斯被她神秘而强大的雇主派往法国一个偏远的角落。

她的任务是：渗透一个激进的生态活动家公社，该公社受到神秘长者布鲁诺·拉孔布的影响，布鲁诺拒绝文明，住在尼安德特人的洞穴中，并相信启蒙之路是回归原始主义。

萨迪用她愤世嫉俗的眼光审视着这个有着古老农场和沉睡村庄的地区，她认为布鲁诺的理想主义很可笑，但就在她确信自己是她所监视的人的诱惑者和傀儡大师时，布鲁诺·拉孔布用他巧妙的反历史、他巧妙的哀叹和他自己的悲剧故事诱惑了她。

在这紧张、令人眼花缭乱的间谍和阴谋故事背后，隐藏着一个女人陷入过去和未来交火的故事，以及一篇关于人类历史的深刻论述。

**LONGLISTED FOR THE BOOKER PRIZE 2024**

'The most exciting writer of her generation' BRET EASTON ELLIS

'Reinvents thenovel in one cool, erudite gesture' HERNAN DIAZ

'Compulsively readable... Kill Bill written by John le Carré' OBSERVER

Seductive and cunning Americanfor-hire Sadie Smith has been sent by her mysterious but powerful employers to a remote corner of France.

Her mission: to infiltrate a commune of radical eco-activists influenced by the beliefs of an enigmatic elder, Bruno Lacombe, who has rejected civilisation, lives in a Neanderthal cave, and believes the path to enlightenment is a return to primitivism.

Sadie casts her cynical eye over this region of ancient farms and sleepy villages, and finds Bruno’s idealism laughable, but just as she is certain she’s the seductress and puppet master of those she surveils, Bruno Lacombe is seducing her with his ingenious counter-histories, his artful laments, his own tragic story.

Beneath this a taut, dazzling story of espionage and intrigue lies one of a woman caught in the crossfire between the past and the future, and a profound treatise on human history.
