Book Description
The Wordsworth Classics covers a huge list of beloved works of literature in English and translations. This growing series is rigorously updated, with scholarly introductions and notes added to new titles.
The diary is that of someone who acknowledges that he is not a "somebody" - Charles Pooter, a clerk in the city of London, chronicles with often hilarious detail the everyday life of the lower middle classes during the great Victorian Age.
From AudioFile
The greatness of George and Weedon Grossmith's masterpiece of comic irony, THE DIARY OF A NOBODY, rests to a large extent on perceptions of class. It purports to be the diary of Charles Pooter, a lower-middle-class individual of the mid-nineteenth century who lives at "The Laurels," Brickfield Terrace, Holloway. This address alone, simultaneously poignant and stifling, reverberates with blandly devastating irony--a note sustained at perfect pitch throughout the book. Pooter is house-proud, thrifty, scrupulous in duty, alive to social niceties and given to the occasional punning witticism, but the story he tells is not quite the story he believes he's telling. Frederick Davidson's impeccable reading is truly inspired, in perfect unity with the Pooteresque view of the world.

这真是爱死人的一本"小书"。昨天才看了个序,已经忍不住喷饭。 试看看这一段: 五月九日。……《黑缯人双周新闻》上刊出一长串参加市长宫邸舞会的客人名单。失望地发现我们的名字被漏掉了,法默森的却赫然在列,后面还带了个M.M.L.,管他是什么意思。恼火得很,因为我们订了十...
評分作为一个《越狱》迷,我一直迷恋那段情节:米帅的哥哥劝他不要越狱,说nobody能够从狐狸河逃出去。米帅淡定地答道:“I am nobody.”米帅说这话时的镇定和自信,很打动我,一段时期以来我把它当成我的座右铭,激励自己做别人做不到的事情. 然而,最近看了《The dairy of nobody》,...
評分首先疑惑我的是这本书的名字应该怎么翻译,很聪明的,叫做《小人物日记》,nobody意味着我们身边的everyone,好的开始往往是成功的一半,一个吸引人的标题就会吸引一大部分读者;再者如果是内容再涉新猎奇一点,那就向畅销的路上跨了一大步,我相信日记这种文体肯定会有一个固...
評分查尔斯.普特尔,一个刻板老套、乏味虚荣、容易满足的主人公。在日复一日地生活着,他的生活目标,就是成为一个体面的绅士。通篇的家长里短、柴米油盐,字斟句酌地构思几句自以为幽默的话语,再以貌似漫不经心的方式说出去,然后内心颇为自得与窃喜。喜怒哀乐之所系,全是些于别...
評分大人物的传记很多,而我这里要说的这一本实在是太不简单了:它从1891年面世以来就一直在卖,事隔一百一十几年还在卖,据说新书还卖二十美元一本——是谁这么有吸引力能抵抗住时间抵抗住风潮甚至抵抗住中西文化差异?女士们先生们,我很荣幸为你们介绍这本传记的主人公:伟...
