The legal thriller of the decade. --Cleveland Plain Dealer
Now a Major Motion Picture!
In this true story of an epic courtroom showdown, two of the nation's largest corporations stand accused of causing the deaths of children. Representing the bereaved parents, the unlikeliest of heroes emerges: a young, flamboyant Porsche-driving lawyer who hopes to win millions of dollars and ends up nearly losing everything, including his sanity. A searing, compelling tale of a legal system gone awry--one in which greed and power fight an unending struggle against justice-- A Civil Action is also the story of how one determined man can ultimately make a difference. With an unstoppable narrative power, it is an unforgettable reading experience.
Jonathan Harr lives and works in Northampton, Massachusetts, where he has taught nonfiction writing at Smith College. He is a former staff writer at New England Monthly and has written for The New Yorker and The New York Times Magazine.
Harr spent nine years researching and writing A Civil Action, which was published in 1995, subsequently nominated for a National Book Award, and awarded the National Book Critics Circle Award.
寥寥幾筆就能立起人物形象,抽絲剝繭把一個復雜而很有可能無聊的故事慢慢展開,還講得極為生動有趣。整本書高潮迭起,讓人手不釋捲,實在非常精彩。

評分What's the price to pay for believing in and holding onto the truth that might not ever be uncovered? I see part of me in Schlichtmann and the empathy gets me stressed out as the case develops and turns. Is to be a trial lawyer only a remote dream for me?
下半年入P大国际法学院,这本是导师推荐的入学前需要读完的第一本书,算是对美国法律体系是怎么运作的初步印象吧,导师强调的还是解决问题的思维而不是法律条文。另外的一本的是To Kill A Mockingbird.

評分时光如水。最近在看乔纳森·哈尔的非虚构作品《漫长的诉讼》(A Civil Action),感慨良多!程序正义、实质正义和人性的激情四射之碰撞,在这看似冗长、琐碎的大企业污染环境造成的人身伤害案的司法审判进程中,渐渐浮现出来… 司法公正,是绝大多数民众都渴求的。除了自甘奴役...
評分是本好书,非常推荐。 这本书的开始不太好读,节奏也不快,慢慢地交待背景,介绍人物。但是一旦熬过了开头,故事越到后面越精彩,越发展越快,仿佛一部不断加速奔跑的马车。。。到最后,书在手中完全放不下来,只能挑灯夜战,一口气把它看完。 合上书后,在我脑海里徘徊的不...
