[梗概]

杰瑞·雷諾思索著海報(bào)上的一行字：我敢不敢撼動(dòng)這宇宙？在一年一度的?；I款會(huì)上，杰瑞拒絕販賣巧克力的行為也許不算激進(jìn)，但當(dāng)他與學(xué)校里一個(gè)叫"守夜會(huì)"的秘密學(xué)社為敵時(shí)，他的抗?fàn)幉耪嬲葑兂梢粓?chǎng)全面戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)。

Jerry Renault ponders the question on the poster: Do I dare disturb the universe? Refusing to sell chocolates in the annual school fund-raiser may not seem like a radical thing to do. But when Jerry challenges a secret school society called The Vigils, his defiant act turns into an all-out war.

[簡(jiǎn)評(píng)]

--本書有力地說明了，要堅(jiān)持你所信奉的，即使是一個(gè)人在戰(zhàn)斗。——讀者凱特

It's a powerful lesson about standing by what you believe in, even if you must do so alone. - Reader Kat

--世界是險(xiǎn)惡的，你無法改變這個(gè)現(xiàn)實(shí)。努力反抗才是你最重要的出路?！緯髡吡_伯特·科米爾

The world is evil and there's nothing you can do about it. Trying to fight against it is the most important thing you can do. - Robert Cormier, author of this book

[精彩片段]

--他厭惡自己的生活以這種方式繼續(xù)下去，漫長(zhǎng)的還過得去的日日夜夜——不算好，不算壞，不算偉大，不算墮落，不算激動(dòng)人心，什么都不算。

He hated to think of his own life stretching ahead of him that way, a long succession of days and nights that were fine - not good, not bad, not great, not lousy, not exciting, not anything.

--不在于你的塊頭有多大，而在于你怎樣運(yùn)用你的身體。

It doesn't matter how big the body, it's what you do with it.
