约翰·欧文(John Irving),被美国文坛泰斗冯内古特喻为“美国最重要的幽默作家”,是当代最知名的小说家之一,他作品中所呈现的高超的说故事技巧与优美的文学性,使人们常将他与狄更斯和J. D. 塞林格等重量级小说家相提并论。他的小说不仅赢得书评界的一致推崇,而且叫好又叫座,是西方最畅销的小说家之一。
‘The first of my father's illusions was that bears could survive the life lived by human beings, and the second was that human beings could survive a life led in hotels.’ So says John Berry, son of a hapless dreamer, brother to a cadre of eccentric siblings, and chronicler of the lives lived, the loves experienced, the deaths met, and the myriad strange and wonderful times encountered by the family Berry. Hoteliers, pet-bear owners, friends of Freud (the animal trainer and vaudevillian, that is), and playthings of mad fate, they ‘dream on’ in this funny, sad, outrageous, and moving novel.

评分我靠,终于看完了!
评分Sorrow strikes and floats but the life goes on.
评分读得超级愉快的。
评分之前一口气读完中译本觉得故事写的过于精彩了,然后看了原文才知道语言更精彩,这次读借鉴了董桥说的泛读的方法,不拘泥于不认识又不太影响理解的单词,很快的看完,反正这本小说肯定还要再看的。
评分Sorrow strikes and floats but the life goes on.
