註釋
A powerful allegorical tale about humanity and dignity and the ease with which we can justify brutality.
Two mysterious strangers turn up at a hotel in a small country town. Where have they come from? Who are they? What catastrophe are they fleeing? The townspeople want answers, but the strangers are unable to speak of their trauma. Before long, wary hospitality shifts to suspicion and fear, and the care of the men slides into appalling cruelty. Lloyd Jones’s fable-like novel
The Cage
is a profound and unsettling novel.
