深泥丘奇談 #1

深泥丘奇談

Rate this book
這個世界上沒有無法理解的事情──
身為推理小說家的我曾這樣深信著。
可是,最近我卻認真地懷疑起這個信念了。
真的……是那樣嗎?

唧唧唧……唧唧唧、唧、唧唧……
那不太像是蟲的叫聲,也不是鳥的啼叫聲,更不是其他小動物的……
這是一種以前從來沒有聽過的聲音,讓人有種毛骨悚然的感覺。
伴隨著不明的怪聲,我在「深泥丘醫院」的病房中醒來,除了我以外,沒有別人。
門窗緊閉,看不出有任何異狀……這到底是什麼聲音?
朦朧之中,我的視線裡好像出現了「奇怪的東西」。
在房間角落的牆面,在壁紙上面好像有個立體的東西。
我揉揉眼睛,這次看得更清楚了,那不是……人的臉嗎?
讓人毛骨悚然的聲音,毫無疑問地,正是來自那張醜陋的臉上……

當怪異成為日常,理性是否變成虛妄?「深泥丘醫院」是現實與幽冥的縫隙,從你踏入的那一刻開始,被封存的記憶蠢蠢欲動,蟄伏於我們內心的黑暗也將蔓延而出,無法預料、難以抗拒,只能一步步深陷其中……

In some ways, this collection of spooky tales from a fictional Kyoto suburban town reminds me of Shirley Jackson's short stories.

Originally I only gave this book 2 stars, but after this re-read, the rating is upgraded to 4 stars.

It's an enjoyable book, but I like the sequel even better.

主角「我」因為眩暈,偶然間住進深泥丘醫院,從住院的某晚見到奇怪的事情,展開這個由數個短篇組合成,以深泥丘地區為背景﹝深泥丘醫院為主﹞的奇談。

主角「我」是本格派推理的作家,以他見到的怪事、聽到的異聲為這三本書奇談的主軸。綾辻行人以聲音和視覺交錯相替,為讀者創造一個事情就是這樣發生,但是大腦卻無法理解跟解釋的怪異現象,不時搭配「我」職業標配的分析推理,加深這些詭異的事情的確發生在這個世界上的印象。

除了奇談之外,作者更透過故事中永遠的班底:石倉醫師一、石倉醫師二、石倉醫師三、護士咲谷一夥人怪怪的笑意、心照不宣的眼神,還有每每聽到奇聞時,主角妻子總是以「你住在這邊的時間明明比我久,卻什麼都不記得」這種回應,孤立主角的思想及理智,營造冷靜的恐怖、介於發瘋邊緣的模糊。
-----------------
用失憶及故意不解釋不說清楚的含糊構造的恐怖,多了會令人生厭。
