This is the story of Amory Blaine-a handsome,wealthy,and spoiled young Princeton student.Closely mirroring Fitzgerald's own experiences at school and abroad,Blaine's journey from prep school to college to the First World -War is the story of "the lost generation."Cynical and world-weary at the age of thirty,Blaine is the symbol of what Fitzgerald described as" a new gen-eration grown up to find all Gods dead,all wars fought,all faiths in man shaken."
F. Scott Fitzgerald was born in 1896 in St.Paul,Minnesta,and attended Princeton University.In 1920,the same year in which the publication of This Side of Paradise propelled him to famd,he married Zelda Sayre.The couple divided their time between New York,Paris,and the Rivera,running in expatriate circles taht included such notable literary figures as Gertrude Stein,Ernest Hemingway,and John Dos Passos.One of the most influential American writers of the twentieth century,Fitzgerald's masterpieces include The Beautiful and the Damned,The Great Gatsby,and Tender Is the Night.Upon his dearth in 1940,left behind an unfinished novel,The Love of the Last Tycoon,which was published posthumously.
第一章 Amory Blaine inherited from his mother every trait, except the stray inexpressible few, that made him worth while. His father, an ineffectual, inarticulate man with a taste for Byron and a habit of drowsing over the Encyclopedia Britannica, grew we...
评分一本书具有教育意义,我理解的应该是,这本书的故事或者人物折射出来的或者传达的思想,对于此时此刻的你或者我具有一定启迪,即使不同时代、不同背景却仍有令自己反思的地方。 比如说,自我感觉是一个自我主义者,读此书时对于艾默里经历与特征的描写感觉和自己实在是太相似了...
评分 评分本来对译文这个新版寄予厚望,没想到翻译却如此让人失望,定价还这么高,相当窝火! 随便挑几段,供大家参考吧,要不翻译得不符合中文表达,要不翻译得不知所云,根本没理解作者想要表达的内容。 下面这段,我想请问这说的是中文吗? “你下...
评分原先买译著都是首选上海译文,以为老牌子靠得住,但这本金绍禹翻译的《人间天堂》真是让人忍无可忍!作为一个著作不算少的译者,怎么能连人话都不会说呢!!!我对比了英文原文,发现人家说的是人话呀!!而且说得很好!!!这么好的一本书,全被译者糟蹋了啊!!!不论是译者...
Damn.
评分The Death of An Egotist -- 那是一个动摇信仰、毁灭理想、杀死爱情的年代。Amory一边长大,一边死着。他不是做哪一门生意的,他走路因为买不起车,他是被财富养大的弃儿。菲茨杰拉德的才华已露端倪,融入剧本形式的尝试尤见自命不凡的野心。跳脱不出时代,但至少还能看清自己的自私、冷漠和荒谬,看见纯真熄灭的过程:真·迷惘,真·自我挖掘和展述。对城市和风景的描写也非常优美,且带有极强的情感色彩。不知海明威怎么想,整本书铺了一条通往地狱三头犬的大路?描述每所大学特点的一段可爱极了,那是真正局内人在戏里脱不了身的写法,自负又自嘲。最后还有Amory的情人们,从TSOP到盖茨比,他写过的女人都很像她。
评分一般好看。想讲的东西太多了,多种叙事风格的尝试也没太大意思,最重要的是刚刚重新拜读了Gatsby.. 不过考虑到这是费少爷大学时候写的,还能说些什么呢。
评分RIding bike at night and reading Keats. Oh life was good.
评分"it's cleaner to be rich and corrupted than poor and kind"
