两个亮点：- 吉姆·哈里森的《燃情岁月》（Legends of the Fall）- 卡洛斯·鲁依斯·萨丰的《风之影》（The Shadow of the Wind）。这两本书文笔极佳——是真正的艺术。我生活中几乎每一刻都在读刺激智力的非虚构类内容。虚构小说正好能平衡那种令人狂躁的信息……

I read Carlos Ruiz Zafón's The Shadow of the Wind and The Angel's Game and loved both: they're incredibly rich and detailed yet driven by plot; they have the action that a lot of unsophisticated readers crave and content that can still satisfy someone…
Jonathan Haidt, The Righteous Mind: http://jakeseliger.com/2012/03/25/jonathan-haidts-the-righte... This is a novel, but Carlos Ruiz Zafon's The Shadow of the Wind is fantastic.
Fiction: The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafón is beautifully written and I've recommended it to many people. I've gotten lost in Carlos' worlds over and over again, and the cemetery of forgotten books is mesmerizing. Humor:…

《风之影》（The Shadow of the Wind）
The Shadow of the Wind
……在读了他后期的某些作品之后再读《雪崩》（Snow Crash），简直难以置信这竟然出自同一个作者之手。”这种情况在作家（以及其他艺术家）身上发生的概率比许多人以为的要多。我读了卡洛斯·鲁依斯·萨丰的《风之影》和《天使游戏》，两本都很喜欢：细节丰富得不可思议，同时又由情节紧凑驱动；它们既有许多普通读者所渴望的动作桥段，又有足以让某些人满意的丰富内涵……
