Elwyn Brooks White was a leading American essayist, author, humorist, poet and literary stylist and author of such beloved children's classics as Charlotte's Web, Stuart Little, and The Trumpet of the Swan. He graduated from Cornell University in 1921 and, five or six years later, joined the staff of The New Yorker magazine. He authored over seventeen books of prose and poetry and was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Letters in 1973.
White always said that he found writing difficult and bad for one's disposition.
Mr. White has won countless awards, including the 1971 National Medal for Literature and the Laura Ingalls Wilder Medal, which commended him for making “a substantial and lasting contribution to literature for children.”
The classic collection by one of the greatest essayists of our time.
昨天,在读E.B.Whihe的《the winter of the great snow》,我的书的封面不是这个,虽然也是essays of E.B.White,这篇文中的第二段里说, A fellow recently reported driving a stake into a snowbank,and when the point of the stake reached ground level it kept right on...

评分最早接触到白老师的文字当然是那本《夏洛的网》。小时候家里没什么书,碰到有字的东西就狂看。夹在《三国演义》和《新中国十大元帅》中看到那本书,一直以为就是一本儿童读物。上了大学才知道白老师的名字。我大学以前实在太无知了。 作为一名理科生,文学的门外汉,下面的内...
大师。敬仰。
评分最喜欢了!!
评分Well written essays bring true satisfaction to the reader, but as an junior economist, it's luxurious for me to find time and peaceful environment to enjoy these pieces. Still recommendations for my friends.
评分I see nothing in space as promising as the view from a Ferris Wheel. 没想到真能读完,为自己喝彩:)农场部分质量绝高,篇篇“苍翠玲珑”。浣熊后腿、猪鬃毛、鸡蛋与鹅眼里是宇宙。诗、爱与锋芒毕露的讽刺居然共生。少年时羞涩却狂想,后期温和隽永也勘透世间难题,崇尚自然而不摒弃理性,嘲弄中有顽皮和温良,真是可爱的人。离开家的人就像龙虾蜕壳,猪疫与邻居晚餐的荒谬相撞,共通的痛苦,马戏之于年华就如planetary lights对combustion of stars. 果然你至少需要先写出这些,才能写出《夏洛的网》。(关于Ford那篇没看下来,毕竟我是直女啊。)p.s.词汇丰富句型多变生动形象情感充沛,提升写作水平再好不过!
评分翻译得一点也不让人失望。
