媒体推荐： 翁达杰的想象力接近超现实！——诺奖作家石黑一雄

《战时灯火》从首句就让人沉迷！一部关于秘密和失去的小说，是翁达杰特别好的作品——《出版人周刊》 翁达杰太会写生命的脆弱与幸运了！他的作品构思独特，充满诗意。——《纽约客》 《战时灯火》没有任何细节或人物是无关紧要的。一切都互相关联，一切都恰到好处。——《华盛顿邮报》 翁达杰的文字之美有一种魔力：让读者忍不住就驻足凝视！——《华盛顿邮报》 翁达杰的文字像箭一样，直射靶心。——《华盛顿邮报》1945年，14岁少年纳撒尼尔的父母走了，把他和姐姐留给两个可能是罪犯的人照看。

外号“蛾子”的人终日行踪不定，“镖手”的身份似乎也并不简单。他们还带来了一群陌生人，每个人似乎都身怀秘密，似乎都与少年的母亲有着某种关系。 十多年后，31岁的纳撒尼尔还对母亲当年的突然离弃耿耿于怀。他决心挖掘无法理解的往事，试图拼凑出当年完整的故事…… 记录的年代久远不可考，但情节之荒诞骇人，却熟悉莫名地叫人心惊。 It is 1945, and London is still reeling from the Blitz. 14-year-old Nathaniel and his sister, Rachel, are apparently abandoned by their parents, left in the care of an enigmatic figure named The Moth. They suspect he might be a criminal, and grow both more convinced and less concerned as they get to know his eccentric crew of friends: men and women all who seem determined to protect Rachel and Nathaniel. But are they really what and who they claim to be? A dozen years later, Nathaniel journeys through recollection, reality and imagination to uncover all he didn’t know or understand in that time, to piece together a story that feels something like the truth. 迈克尔·翁达杰，是世界文坛罕见的“诗歌与小说全才”。1992年，翁达杰荣获英语文学至高荣誉布克奖；2018年，荣获布克奖50周年大奖“金布克奖”！

1943年，翁达杰出生于斯里兰卡，19岁移民加拿大。他凭《英国病人》获得布克奖和加拿大总督奖。2018年，翁达杰新作《战时灯火》在英国出版，再次获得布克奖评委的青睐。诺贝尔奖作家石黑一雄与翁达杰对谈时，感叹“翁达杰的想象力接近超现实”。翁达杰也直言：“我从来不愿意写一部结局完满的小说。在结尾处我总要留一扇门。我的故事里有角色消失了25页以后忽然又回来了，但他们并不需要解释之前去哪儿了。”Michael Ondaatjeis the author of several novels, as well as a memoir, a nonfiction book on film, and several books of poetry.
