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.
壓抑 就像封麵 有時候覺得他有些自負瞭 朋友和夥伴的忠告一概忽略 為瞭想象中不切實際的勝利 黑著走 書中的一句評論很認同 即或許最開始他是為瞭名利 但是後來他真的是為瞭公益 但反過來想想 任何人對一件事有這麼深刻的瞭解 都很難再以膚淺如名利的原因為繼 知道適可而止 也是很重要的

評分“I used to believe in the idea that justice would prevail if you worked hard enough at it. I thought if judges saw cheating right in front of them, they’d do something about it. The Woburn case gave me a depressing dose of reality.” - Charles Nesson
評分Easy to read and attractive,but the end is quite gloomy.
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...
評分 評分Finished it in a hurry, never thought an epic story of this would end in such a strikingly cruel way. I almost found myself losing faith in the whole system in the face of so many lies and so called "injustice". One line impressed me most reads "(for bei...
評分 評分最近地下水污染的新闻很多,把自己写的这篇旧文翻出来又看了一下。事情总在不断地循环发生中... A Civil Action 是一本Civil Right案例纪要,主要围绕80年代的一个著名案例:两座公司生产中的化学废料污染了波士顿附近一个村镇的水源,饮用该水源的居民(尤其是幼儿)纷纷得...
