What kind of magic can make an 800-page
novel seem too short Whatever it is, debut author Susanna Clarke is possessed
by it, and her astonished readers will surely hope she never recovers. Her epic
history of an alternative, magical England is so beautifully realized that not
one of the many enchantments Clarke chronicles in the book could ever be as
potent or as quickening as her own magnificent narrative. It is 1806, and Gilbert Norrell is the only true magician in England. He sets out to restore the practice of magic to a nation that has not seen it for more than 300 years. But there is an odd and fateful twist to Norrell’s character: he is as scholarly and insufferably pedantic as he is gifted. In short, Norrell is the most boring and unmagical person imaginable. This is Clarke’s masterstroke, A. Clarke’s imaginative surfeit of energy B. Clarke’s Dickensian flow of language C. Clarke’s ability to present magnificent narratives D. Clarke’s masterstroke in describing Norrell’s character 更多"{{B}}TEXT A{{/B}} What "的相关试题: [单项选择] {{B}}TEXT A{{/B}}
