《正常人》莎莉魯尼處女作《聊天紀錄》登上小螢幕“[A] cult-hit . . . [a] sharply realistic comedy of adultery and friendship.”—Entertainment Weekly WINNER OF THE SUNDAY TIMES (UK) YOUNG WRITER OF THE YEAR AWARD • NAMED ONE OF THE TEN BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY VOGUE AND SLATE AND ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY BUZZFEED AND ELLEFrances is a coolheaded and darkly observant young woman, vaguely pursuing a career in writing while studying in Dublin. Her best friend is the beautiful and endlessly self-possessed Bobbi. At a local poetry performance one night, they meet a well-known photographer, and as the girls are then gradually drawn into her world, Frances is reluctantly impressed by the older woman’s sophisticated home and handsome husband, Nick. But however amusing Frances and Nick’s flirtation seems at first, it begins to give way to a strange—and then painful—intimacy.Written with gemlike precision and marked by a sly sense of humor, Conversations with Friends is wonderfully alive to the pleasures a

★ Faber Stories經典選篇，展現短篇小說大師最成熟的筆力★ 以黑色幽默與銳利觀察，寫出女性處境與人際關係的荒謬★ 短短篇幅，卻同時容納震撼、哀傷、寬恕與愛Faber Stories 為 Faber 推出的經典短篇系列，邀請讀者重新走進短篇小說大師們最耀眼的作品世界。本書收錄的，正是一則令人震懾又難以移開目光的故事。亞德琳活在一個保守而充滿道德框架的時代，對一個沒有孩子的女人而言，旁人最常見的「讚美」竟是：「妳一定會是個好母親。」這樣的話語既諷刺又沉重，也映照出她始終格格不入的處境。直到某次朋友家的勞動節野餐，一場突如其來的意外發生——她竟然害死了朋友的嬰兒。故事最驚人的地方，不只在於事件本身的衝擊，更在於其後層層推進的心理描寫。亞德琳從生活中退開，遠離人群，也遠離原本熟悉的一切；而當她試圖再次返回人世，讀者看見的，不只是她對周遭人物一針見血的懷疑與譏誚，更是藏在冷峻之下、對人性複雜處境的體諒。本書以極精煉的篇幅，寫出震撼人心的情感層次。尖銳、幽默、悲傷，又帶著難以言喻的溫柔，讀來像一道迅疾劃過心口的光，短暫卻留下極深的餘韻。Faber Stories, a landmark series of individual volumes, presents masters of the short story form at work in a range of genres and styles.Adrienne is living in a puritanical age, when the best compliment a childless woman can get is: ‘You’d make a terrific mother’.

LONGLISTED FOR THE EDINBURGH FESTIVAL FIRST BOOK AWARDThe Sun on My Head is a collection of thirteen stories set in Rio’s largest favela, gravitating around the lives of young boys and men who, in spite of having to deal with the anguish and difficulties inherent to their age, also struggle with the violence involved in growing up on the less favoured side of the ‘Broken City’.They smoke weed, sell weed, and notice the smell of weed lingering on the clothes of passersby in the streets. A boy steals his security-guard father’s gun to show it to his friends, another runs into trouble disposing of a body, and another relapses into an old graffiti habit, with tragic consequences . Drugs and poverty colour them, but these stories also depict the pain of growing up with attendant hopes and desires.Geovani Martins has produced a spellbinding debut about masculinity, corruption, guilt, poverty and resilience.
