黑利的每一部作品都是以美国社会为背景 且都通过讲述发生在一个行业内部的故事 通过对某个行业进行比较细致 深入的描述 来展示当时美国社会生活的某一个片断画面 最可贵的是 读完一篇小说 读者也会对这一行业有相应的了解 不少读者都认为 读阿瑟 黑利的书 会给人一种 工作着是美丽的 莫名冲动 作品中的场景 大多设置为一个相对固定而又开放的场所 因而牵涉的人物可谓来自五湖四海 危机小说 情节紧凑 高潮叠起 书中故事一般都被设置在一个比较短的时限内 一开始就引入主要人物和场景 在交待人物和事件关系的同时 也点出了矛盾冲突 随后 人物与事件交相错杂而进 矛盾叠生 波澜起伏 直至故事的最高潮 WritingCareer 2020 3 25 22 CharacteristicsofWorks EffortforResearching SomeFigures
