顔艾琳《骨皮肉》全新中英國際雙語版「愛情非霜淇淋。你說，也不全然固定或者流動那麼，在這間小小的房裡，空氣中填塞的是什麼？狡黠的你賊賊答我:欲望是甜的，而房間是方糖。因此，我們互相調劑彼此的體味」《骨皮肉》（Bone Skin Flesh）是臺灣詩人顏艾琳的代表作，於1997年首次出版時，便以其對女性特質的坦率探索和一系列情慾詩，在文壇掀起廣泛討論。顏艾琳被譽為臺灣第一位出版一系列情慾詩的女性詩人，她的作品深入挖掘性別與慾望的議題，對讀者、公共論述及當代文學研究產生了深遠影響。這本詩集共分為六個章節，包括：「黑暗溫泉」、「單性情人日」、「超級販賣機」、「空體賦」、「隱隱燃」和「寄給憂鬱的一封信」。詩作充滿有形的質感，不僅描繪了身體與世界的互動，更細膩呈現了慾望、情感、清醒與夢境的紋理。她的詩歌創造了新的世界，或者說，以嶄新的方式讓我們感受這個世界；它們不是輕輕流淌而過，而是「在你之中、在你之上、自你而生」。譯者簡莉芳（Jenn Marie Nunes）將顏艾琳的詩作視為一種「深刻而黏稠的樂趣」，並指出其作品具備「Gurlesque」詩學的特質。這種詩學以滑稽或公然嘲弄的方式展現女性特質，即使冒著怪誕的風險，也要動搖被接受的女性行為和語言基礎。然而，她的詩又超越了典型的「Gurlesque」風格，融入了一種不常傾向的溫柔、龐克式的真誠，以及對女性的崇敬，無論是母親、情人或老婦，甚至她們共享的孤獨與憂鬱。／／／Bone Skin Flesh is the landmark work of Taiwanese poet Yen Ai-Lin. First published in 1997, it drew wide attention for its candid exploration of femininity and its groundbreaking series of erotic poems, making Yen the first female poet in Taiwan to publish such a body of work. Her poetry delves into gender and desire, leaving a lasting impact on readers and contemporary literary discou

故事情節緊湊且充滿懸疑，獲得了高度評價，常被比擬為現代版的《Gone Girl/控制》故事聚焦於一段錯綜複雜的三角關係：一位母親Laura、她的兒子Daniel，以及Daniel的新女友Cherry。Laura擁有成功的事業和幸福的家庭，但當兒子遇見了Cherry，一位年輕、美麗且聰明但背景與她不同的女子，這一切開始產生裂痕。小說圍繞著母親與兒子女友之間的競爭與猜疑，展現了深刻的情感糾葛和心理緊張。劇情因一個無法原諒的謊言而推向高潮，揭示了信任與背叛之間的複雜關係。這本書以其層層剝析人物心態的描寫和緊張的故事節奏，成為心理驚悚愛好者的熱門選擇。書中探討了親情、愛情、嫉妒及女性之間的微妙權力關係，非常適合喜歡情感張力與心理懸疑的讀者。Soon to be an Amazon Prime TV series starring Robin Wright, Olivia Cooke, and Waleed Zuaiter.She loves your son.

Following on from the hugely popular Mesozoic Art, this magnificent new volume showcases 20 amazing artists whose work represents the very best of palaeoart. Our knowledge of how dinosaurs and other extinct species looked is continuously evolving with each new palaeontological discovery, as is the dramatic art that depicts these ancient worlds.
