關於產品
Product Information
A New York Times Noteable Book Mesmerizing, exhilarating, and profoundly moving, Mr. Peanut is a police procedural of the soul, a poignant investigation of the relentlessly mysterious human heart. David Pepin has been in love with his wife, Alice, since the moment they met in a university seminar on Alfred Hitchcock. After thirteen years of marriage, he still can't imagine a remotely happy life without her--yet he obsessively contemplates her demise. Soon she is dead, and David is both deeply distraught and the prime suspect. The detectives investigating Alice's suspicious death have plenty of personal experience with conjugal enigmas: Ward Hastroll is happily married until his wife inexplicably becomes voluntarily and militantly bedridden; and Sam Sheppard is especially sensitive to the intricacies of marital guilt and innocence, having decades before been convicted and then exonerated of the brutal murder of his wife. Like the Escher drawings that inspire the computer games David designs for a living, these complex, interlocking dramas are structurally and emotionally intense, subtle, and intriguing; they brilliantly explore the warring impulses of affection and hatred, and pose a host of arresting questions. Is it possible to know anyone fully, completely ? Are murder and marriage two sides of the same coin, each endlessly recycling into the other? And what, in the end, is the truth about love?

Reviews
"Ross-in a brilliant stylistic mirror of marriage-blends dream and reality, fact and perception in a narrative that's both cinematic and lyrical…The book is by turns harrowing, tender and funny." -Nancy Connors, ClevelandPlain Dealer "Mr Peanutis full of tricks: shifting narrations, quirky chronology and meta-novels within novels. The effect is disorienting, but the characters are too well drawn to feel like pawns in some game. The result is a deliciously clever book, full of dark insight and even a touch of hope." -The Economist "Fearless, challenging and unforgettable…Mr. Peanutis acutely funny and profoundly sad, an unexpected and unsettling journey into the heart of contemporary darkness….[Ross is] a sublimely impertinent new writer." -Steve Whitton,The Anniston Star "[A] major work….Stories are told and retold, hinge on one another, depend, and connect. That layering, that subsonic, towering buildup, is howMr. Peanutworks, and it is a marvel." -John Timpane,The Philadelphia Inquirer "An author whose voice is so distinct and vivid that you truly can't find any comparison [and] a book whose combination of rhythm, language and style are unlike anything else I've ever encountered…a sort of wondrous literary alchemy [that's] laugh-out-loud funny and shrewdly aware of human nature…ReadMr. Peanutfor its insight into marriage. Read it for the humor. Read it for the thrills. Just read it, please." -Joy Tipping,The Dallas Morning News "An ambitious and well-crafted noir that manages to humanise its characters while fashioning their stories into a gripping page-turner. Ross's depiction of love and hatred, and the conflicted ways we manifest these feelings, is both sensitive and fearless." -Mary Fitzgerald,The Guardian(U.K.) "Plainly thrilling…the work of a boundlessly eager writer willing to try just about anything, and invite us to share in his sinister joy." Christopher Kelly,The Kansas City Star "Exciting and strangely moving [and] vastly ambitious….The whodunit aspect ofMr. Peanutis absorbing, but the infinite mysteries of marriage are really at the heart of this novel and drive its considerable emotional suspense." -Hilma Wolitzer,The East Hampton Star "A murder mystery [and] also a complicated jigsaw puzzle of intertwined relationships….This may be [Ross's] first novel, but it's written as though he's been doing it for ages." -Dwight Silverman,Houston Chronicle "An existential puzzle of a book, a noirish work that seemingly has no literary precendent." -Rege Behe,Pittsburgh Review-Tribune "The debut of an enormously talented writer…From the first page on, it's clear that Mr. Ross is a literary gymnast [and] a sorcerer with words…Dark, dazzling…A Rubik's cube of a story that reads like a postmodern mash-up of Tolstoy'sKreutzer Sonata, Edward Albee'sWho's Afraid of Virginia Woolf'and one of James M. Cain's noirish mysteries." -Michiko Kakutani,The New York Times "Darkly funny, densely woven and deeply unnerving…a page turner that reveals something new from every angle." -Jim Ridley,The Nashville Scene "Gripping…This highly original debut uses the police procedural as a hall of mirrors to reflect pleasure and guilt, marriage and murder.&r, "[A] major work….Stories are told and retold, hinge on one another, depend, and connect. That layering, that subsonic, towering buildup, is howMr. Peanutworks, and it is marvel….Adam Ross is a writer who can bring it." -John Timpane,The Philadelphia Inquirer "An author whose voice is so distinct and vivid that you truly can't find any comparison [and] a book whose combination of rhythm, language and style are unlike anything else I've ever encountered…a sort of wondrous literary alchemy [that's] laugh-out-loud funny and shrewdly aware of human nature…ReadMr. Peanutfor its insight into marriage.

And in this sense,Mr. Peanutis highly unique-a disturbingly funny and remarkably poignant novel from one of the year's most promising new voices." -Jillian Quint,BookPage
