Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald (September 24, 1896 – December 21, 1940) was an American author of novels and short stories, whose works are the paradigm writings of the Jazz Age, a term he coined himself. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest American writers of the 20th century.[1] Fitzgerald is considered a member of the "Lost Generation" of the 1920s. He finished four novels: This Side of Paradise, The Beautiful and Damned, The Great Gatsby—his most famous—and Tender Is the Night. A fifth, unfinished novel, The Love of the Last Tycoon, was published posthumously. Fitzgerald also wrote many short stories that treat themes of youth and promise along with despair and age.
The Great Gatsby has been the basis for numerous films of the same name, spanning nearly 90 years; 1926, 1949, 1974, 2000, and an upcoming 2013 adaptation. In 1958 his life from 1937–1940 was dramatized in Beloved Infidel.
Generally considered to be F. Scott Fitzgerald's finest novel, The Great Gatsby is a consummate summary of the 'roaring twenties' and a devastating expose of the 'Jazz Age'. Through the narration of Nick Carraway, the reader is taken into the superficially glittering world of the mansions which lined the Long Island shore of the American seaboard in the 1920s, to encounter Nick's cousin Daisy, Jay Gatsby and the dark mystery which surrounds him. The Great Gatsby is an undisputed classic of American literature from the period following the First World War and is one of the great novels of the twentieth century.
《了不起的盖茨比》中有一段非常普通的对话:第二章中,Tom带着Nick去见他的情妇Myrtle,随后三人一同坐火车前往纽约,在车站Myrtle看中了小贩兜售的一条狗,然后很矫情地问“Is it a boy or a girl?” Tom冷冷地回应“It's a bitch.” 李继宏居然翻译为“它是个婊子。”这是一...
評分《了不起的盖茨比》把故事讲得好极,我就只就故事说说故事吧,因为据说其最精妙之处在于语言,可对于译著读者,那是很难去谈的。 菲茨杰拉德把盖茨比的故事讲得张驰相宜、收放自若,而且精细严谨、流畅雅致。人物个个形象鲜明,无论对话、行为还是心理,都生动传神。其内在逻...
評分我们都曾坚持过什么,也许已经忘记,也许仍旧铭记却无力实现。 用了一周多的时间把这本书看了三遍,对于从来不看打着世界名著标签的书的自己,对于已经变得懒惰又恶俗的自己实属不易。 这仅仅是一个梦碎的故事,所有的情节所有的人物所有的跌宕也不过是为码头尽头的那盏绿灯...
評分一直都不怎么喜欢菲茨杰拉德,直到喜欢上了村上春树。 在这之前,印象中的菲茨杰拉德是这样一个作家:阴柔、华美,热衷于书写贵公子和美丽的南方女郎的爱情游戏。那时候,一说起20世纪上半期的美国文学,就会想到海明威和福克纳。从他们的小说中,我看到两人的缄默和隐藏在其...
評分最近看《了不起的盖茨比》,想起乔伊斯的《阿拉比》,小男孩爱上了同学的姐姐,做梦里这女孩都在闪金光,女孩老提有个阿拉比的市场,听上去充满了东方神秘的色彩,和女孩一样闪闪发光,小男孩于是发花痴,一定要到那市场去给女孩买件东西,于是一番折腾,汽车,火车,走错路,...
不隻是關於美國夢的破滅,而更是關於喧嘩與騷動後的幻滅和虛妄。小說的中心隨著敘述的推進層層顯現:蓋茨比的發傢,然後是他的愛情,然後是破滅,最終歸結於虛妄——這個最深層的中心在最後一頁纔突然顯現齣來照亮瞭全篇。第一人稱參與者的視角、大量的間接描寫和側麵描寫在長篇小說中前所未見,一開始效果並不明顯,後來漸入佳境。(《包法利夫人》、《活著》以及很多19世紀的俄國中短篇小說都以第一人稱旁觀者開始,但是很快就轉換到瞭常規的第三人稱活著第一人稱視角)
评分菲茨傑拉德怎麼那麼會用英語寫作,這真是美得無法翻譯的文字,詞都被用活瞭。讀英文比讀中文更覺得悲涼。好的作品果真經得起反復琢磨,這不,我打算一個個去看評論瞭。
评分it has gone beyond her, beyond everything.
评分Total Film 寫道,為瞭自己心愛的女人走上暴富的道路,《瞭不起的蓋茨比》的故事就是《社交網絡》的1920年代版。
评分蓋茨比的悲劇告訴我們,男人不能為情所睏。
