对犯罪小说大师约翰·格林沙姆感到陌生?不知道该从哪本开始阅读?以下是约翰·格林沙姆最受欢迎的五本惊险小说。
1. The Firm
1.《糖衣陷阱》
The Firm is the book that made Grisham known. Released in 1991, it quickly
topped the bestsellers lists and was made into a major motion picture starring
Tom Cruise. Read The Firm to see where it all started and why Grisham is as
popular as he is today.
小说《糖衣陷阱》，是约翰·格林沙姆的成名之作。1991年一经出版，便迅速占领各大畅销书榜。该小说后拍摄为电影，并由汤姆·汉克斯领衔主演。阅读这部成名之作——《糖衣陷阱》，你会找到格林沙姆至今仍受追捧的原因。
2. The Rainmaker
2.《造雨人》
The Rainmaker brings humor to the fast paced courtroom drama that Grisham
is so good at writing.
《造雨人》将幽默诙谐融入快节奏的法庭戏剧，这正是格林沙姆极为擅长的手法。
3.The Testament
3.《疯人遗嘱》
Similar to Grisham's other novels in its legal suspense, The Testament adds
a new spin by drawing the main character into a dangerous journey through the
remote regions of Latin America. This novel explores greed, materialism, sin and
redemption.
与约翰·格林沙姆其他富含法庭内容的犯罪小说相似，《疯人遗嘱》通过刻画主角在拉丁美洲偏远地区的危险之旅而为小说添加了新的情节。这部小说探讨了贪婪、实利主义、罪恶与救赎。
4. The Summons
4.《传票》
The Summons has a simple plot, but it still keeps the pages turning. It is
the story of two sons and their estranged father, who they find dead in his
Mississippi home. There are familiar elements--a large sum of money,
lawyers--but the story does not feel old despite the typical Grisham
formula.
《传票》叙述简洁，引人入胜。小说围绕父子展开，儿子们意外发现失和的父亲死于密西西比的家中……小说中不乏读者熟悉的元素——大笔的钱以及律师——但是大家不会觉得厌倦，毕竟这正是格林沙姆作品的特点所在。
5. The Broker
5.《掮客》
The Broker takes place in Italy, and the first half of the book is slower
than some readers may want, describing Bologna in detail. The pace quickens and
provides a good ridein the end.
《掮客》的故事发生在意大利，作者使用大量笔墨描述了意大利城市博洛尼亚，因此本书前半部分的情节发展也许会比读者预想的更慢。小说后半部分进程加快，展现了扣人心弦的故事。 |
