Brimstone

Brimstone
硫磺


我ㄧ向對驚悚懸疑加上點宗教歷史元素的小說有偏好
加上這本一路在紐約辦案
讓我很期待中文版的出現

終於有人要翻譯了= =
翻譯成硫磺之火
4月份會上市

BRIMSTONE的來源
舊約聖經·創世紀的第19章,共38節
這也是所多瑪(Sodom)城毀滅
回頭的人變成鹽柱的起源那篇

19:19
Behold now, thy servant hath found grace in thy sight, and thou hast magnified thy mercy, which thou hast shewed unto me in saving my life; and I cannot escape to the mountain, lest some evil take me, and I die:
19:20
Behold now, this city is near to flee unto, and it is a little one: Oh, let me escape thither, (is it not a little one?) and my soul shall live.
19:21
And he said unto him, See, I have accepted thee concerning this thing also, that I will not overthrow this city, for the which thou hast spoken.
19:22
Haste thee, escape thither; for I cannot do any thing till thou be come thither. Therefore the name of the city was called Zoar.
19:23
The sun was risen upon the earth when Lot entered into Zoar.
19:24
Then the Lord rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the Lord out of heaven;
19:25
And he overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground.
19:26
But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.

地獄的業火這種說法不止西方有
佛家也有相同論調

自心造諸惡，而受業火報。地獄本無處，由心因緣起。

心魔阿...anyway,期待這本小說上市:)
