A rediscovered diabolical slice of great American noir
‘What kind of a man would have his fingers tattooed that way? … What kind of a man? What kind of a preacher?’
One of the great chase novels, The Night of the Hunter centres on the ferocious, unforgettable figure of Preacher, a psychopath who relentlessly pursues two children who may or may not know the secret of where the money from a bank raid is hidden.
Set in a brilliantly rendered Depression-era American river town, Grubb’s novel is both a study of innocence and evil and a savage picture of human failings as, one by one, the adults who have it in their power to protect the children fall for Preacher’s wiles.
重新发现的美国黑色电影中的邪恶片段
“什么样的人会在手指上纹那样的纹身？……什么样的人？什么样的传教士？”
《猎人之夜》是一部伟大的追逐小说，故事围绕着令人难以忘怀的凶猛传教士展开，他是一个精神病患者，他无情地追捕两个孩子，这两个孩子可能知道也可能不知道银行抢劫案中钱财的藏匿地点的秘密。
格鲁布的小说以美国大萧条时期的一个河畔小镇为背景，既是对纯真与邪恶的研究，也是对人性弱点的残酷描述，那些本可以保护孩子的成年人一个接一个地落入了传教士的诡计。
