Graeme Simsion

Graeme Simsion is the Australian author of The Rosie Project, The Rosie Effect and The Best of Adam Sharp (film rights optioned by Toni Collette/Vocab Films). The Rosie Project has sold more than three and a half million copies in more than forty countries, won or been shortlisted for half a dozen prizes, and was the only novel on Bill Gates’ list of “six books I’d recommend”. Last year Graeme co-authored with his wife, Anne Buist, the novel Two Steps Forward, with film rights optioned by Ellen DeGeneres/Fox Searchlight. Simsion got his big break in books in 2012, when The Rosie Project won the Victorian Premier’s Literary Award for an Unpublished Manuscript. Before that, he was an IT and business consultant, and also has an extensive background in writing and producing short films and plays, mostly for Australian television and film festivals. Graeme’s newest novel, The Rosie Result, recently debuted at No. 1 in fiction novels in Australia.

Quote

"Wow," she said, very quietly, looking back at the vastness of it all. Then, in this vanishingly small moment in the history of the universe, she took my hand, and held it all the way to the subway.

— The Rosie Project, Graeme Simsion

Book Reviews

Sharp dialogue, terrific pacing, physical hijinks, slapstick, a couple to root for, and more twists than a pack of Twizzlers — it's no surprise that The Rosie Project is bound for the big screen. But read it first.

— NPR on The Rosie Project

This good-hearted, pacy, thoroughly enjoyable novel takes a significant step towards showing that all human variants are a potential source of life affirming comedy.

— Guardian on The Rosie Project

引語

“哇哦！”她感嘆道，靜靜地望向身后無垠的時空。接著，就在蒼茫宇宙中另一個稍縱即逝的瞬間，她牽起了我的手，向地鐵走去。

——《羅茜計劃》格雷姆?辛浦生，鄭玲譯

書評

對話尖銳，節奏完美，快感十足；一出鬧劇、一對讓人叫好的情侶，以及比麻花還曲折的各種反轉——《羅茜計劃》必然走上大熒幕。但記得先讀一讀。

——美國國家公共電臺評《羅茜計劃》

這本善良、活潑、充滿樂趣的小說有里程碑意義。它向我們證明，再異類的人生都潛藏著振奮人心的喜劇能量。

——《衛報》評《羅茜計劃》
