    David Zinc不管经历怎么样的fail都能扛得住,生活还得继续。For Helen,for Emma. 做自己喜欢的擅长的,just go and do it.太太太崇拜David Zinc了。

    David Zinc,HLS毕业,原来在Biglaw做国际债券吗,突然一天厌倦了在虚拟的法律世界里活下去,决定做一些有意义的事,因此加入一家两人小所做民事侵权诉讼。打了一宗心脏药,一宗含铅玩具。故事精彩好读,不忍释卷。

    文笔风趣幽默,能够吸引人一直读下去的英文小说。这部小说里面每个人物都有着自己的缺点。老头是个老派的妻管严。希望能过生活发生变化,但是却不甘迈出一步。中年是个心比天高,却不脚踏实地的小人物。青年在大律所的重压下崩溃,从而改变了自己的一生。幸好青年虽然崩溃过,但是却是个脚踏实地的人。最后他的努力拯救了故事里面每个人。

    Just finished it during work breaks. Not so many courtroom dramas or intensive plots as previous novels such as Ranimaker or Runaway Jury, but still a nice written one that worths reading for leisure or time killing.

    对于普通美国律师工作,这是相当真实的描写。从人物,到案件过程都非常琐碎。对于美国的法律制度,描写生动而深刻。

    相当一般,直到最后五分之一才显示出了一点点作为一本legal thriller的potential。作者对于男性人物的塑造(or 人物 in general)算不上得心应手,大多男性人物都面目模糊十分苍白;而女性人物,虽然更为鲜活,但男性视角很是明显。David Zinc对于biglaw的描述与不满夸张了点,不过呢,唉,非常有道理。
