The Valley of Masks 評價
網友滿意度：
不論是在學生時期或開始工作後
我對語言一直都有難以言喻的嚮往~~
自英文的從國中啟蒙
能夠用其他語言的邏輯來思考事情
也是一件很有趣的一件事
跟一般人喜歡用吃吃喝喝出遊玩來打發時間
我更喜歡用書籍安靜的充實自己
所以特別跟大家推薦我目前在看的
The Valley of Masks
非常好上手、條理分明
對於希望入門別太難的人很適合
而且這最大的成就感就是用新學的
語言查資料了XD
看自己key出之前完全不了解的文字或音
真的有滿滿的感動啊~~
希望推薦的這本書能夠讓大家都能
感受或得知識的喜悅!
一起讀書向前邁進吧!

商品訊息描述:
＂The harrowing dystopian thriller that was longlisted for the Man Asian Literary Prize Late at night, in a dingy apartment hidden in a side street of a nondescript foreign city, a man tries to write out his story before daybreak. He doesn’t believe he’ll live to see daylight, and he’s driven to tell the world the story of his killers while there’s still time. Until he escaped, the man himself was one of those killers, known only as ＂X470.＂ He was a Wafadar, one of a brotherhood of trained, ninja-like assassins indoctrinated with the task of protecting the commune, an anonymous collective hidden in a valley of the Himalayas--where all the inhabitants wear masks to heighten the perception of equality. Among the Wafadar, every vestige of individualism has been effaced. Even to sing is to provoke violent punishment. They serve only perfection and equality--and Aum, their mystic progenitor. X470 has killed, too, attesting to his fealty. But now, he is a Dagadaar--a traitor--simply because he wanted to takehis mask off. The Valley of Masks is an Orwellian parable of ’the tyranny of the idea... when the idea becomes more important than the man.’＂--
