內容簡介
內容簡介 在海平面上升淹沒世界的未來，《What We Can Know》橫跨過去、現在與未來，提出深刻的問題：我們是誰？我們將往何處去？2014年：一首偉大的詩被朗讀後，從此無人再聽聞。數世代以來，人們對它的訊息充滿揣測，但至今仍未找到任何副本。2119年：英國低地已被上升的海水吞沒。倖存者們仍被那已失落世界的豐饒記憶所困擾。湯姆．梅特卡夫（Tom Metcalfe）是南丘大學（University of the South Downs）的學者，該校位於英國殘存的群島之一。他鑽研二十一世紀初的檔案，為那個人類生活達到巔峰時的自由與可能性所著迷。當他偶然發現一條可能通往那首失落詩作的線索時，糾纏的愛情與殘酷罪行的真相浮現，擊碎了他對一段自以為極為熟悉的故事的所有假設。一場探索、一部文學驚悚、一段愛情故事——《What We Can Know》是一部傑作，從我們對迫近災難的恐懼中奪回當下，並想像一個並非全然失落的未來世界。 讚譽 「當代最優秀的作家之一」——《星期日泰晤士報》 「真正的大師」——《每日电訊報》 「麥克尤恩是情節與文筆最純熟的匠人之一」——《紐約時報》In a world submerged by rising seas, What We Can Know spans the past, present and future to ask profound questions about who we are and where we are going.2014: A great poem is read aloud and never heard again. For generations, people speculate about its message, but no copy has yet been found.2119: The lowlands of the UK have been submerged by rising seas. Those who survive are haunted by the richness of the world that has been lost.Tom Metcalfe, a scholar at the University of the South Downs, part of Britain's remaining archipelagos, pores over the archives of the early twenty-first century, captivated by the freedoms and possibilities of human life at its zenith.When he stumbles across a clue that may lead to the great lost poem, revelations of entangled love and a brutal crime emerge, destroying his assumptions about a story he thought he knew intimately.A quest, a literary thriller and a love story, What We Can Know is a masterpiece that reclaims the present from our sense of looming catastrophe, and imagines a future world where all is not quite lost.'One of the finest writers alive' Sunday Times'A true master' Daily Telegraph'McEwan is one of the most accomplished craftsmen of plot and prose' New York Times
