《寄居者》的故事发生在抗战期间的上海，由女主人公玫在晚年讲述给一位传记作者听：玫在1939年的上海，爱上一名刚刚逃离集中营上岸的犹太男子。那时赶上约瑟夫·梅辛格臭名昭著的“解决方案”就要实施，为让爱人去美国，玫临时在上海抓了个救星另一位美国青年做自己的丈夫。乱世中，小人物们开始一串连环套式的命运救助，，玫用“爱人”的钱赎救了“丈夫”，用“丈夫”的护照让“爱人”脱险，同时，以毁掉对爱情的原始理解和信念的方式，去实现了爱情……故事结局在爱情的部分出人意料，令人叹惋。这部作品是严歌苓在题材、写作手法和女性角色塑造上又一次新鲜成功的尝试。同时，小说延续了作者独特的自述式与视觉化的叙事风格。
戏剧与现实交错的杰作在雷格纳·希尔部推理小说《喜欢交际的女人》里，他创造的一对独特的侦探搭档也首度登场。一位是心宽体胖、好色贪怀、爱斗嘴耍活宝的刑事主任达尔齐尔，另一位则是教养优雅、学识丰富的警官帕斯科。 自从柯南·道尔创造了华生医生作为神探福尔摩斯的搭档之后，推理小说家就经常使用这种对比手法，用一位“次要而平凡”的角色来衬托神探的不凡。这些二号人物有时候是侦探的朋友，有时候是记者，有时候是助手或忠仆，但多半不脱烘托主角的功能。但雷格纳·希尔采取了另外一种途径：他让侦探的搭档有能力也有作用，甚至是重要的互补，没有对方彼此都不是完整的；他又让两人的文化特质与思考形态南辕北辙，比较与冲突的趣味因而源源不绝。仅此一项，就是希尔对推理小说的重大贡献。 希尔的小说结构复杂紧凑，在

《1984动物农场（珍藏版）》中描述的是对极权主义恶性发展的预言人性遭到扼杀，自由遭到剥夺，思想受到钳制，生活极度贫乏、单调。特别可怕的是：人性已堕落到不分是非善恶的程度。一段写于五十年前的绝妙政治寓言让人不寒而栗：如果有一天这一切再重现……从未在任何极权国家生活过的英国人奥威尔，何以有如此天才般的预见和洞察？其实就象丁春秋的逍遥派、东方不败的日月神教，作家们不过是透视了人性中最原始而丑陋的东西。
