“从我第一次读《山的故事》的那一刻起,我就知道我们必须出版它。这是一本罕见的书,作为一名编辑,你总是在寻找一本书:它写得既有目的性,它的人物又是如此迷人。索米娅是一个真正特殊的声音,我们非常高兴和自豪地出版她的作品。”
----编辑塞西莉亚(Cecily)
“Roy has a journalist's unflinching eye, a poet's talent for detail, and a radical sense of empathy that illuminates this account of the people who live on the Deona garbage mountains. Urgent as a thriller, yet lingering in its unforgettable portraits of life, love and death, "Castaway Mountain" deserves every accolade. A stunning achievement.”
----Kiran Desai, Booker Prize Winner and author of The Inheritance of Loss
Saumya Roy's gorgeous Castaway Mountain is a remarkable feat of immersive reporting and story-telling, a deeply-felt exploration of ideas, and a gripping chronicle of the fates of the garbage-pickers of Mumbai; Roy immerses you so deeply in her characters' lives and physical environment that at times I felt I was experiencing them myself. I loved this book.
