The Peregrine pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2025
John A. Baker lives with his wife in Essex. He has had assorted jobs, including chopping down trees and pushing book trolleys in the British Museum. In 1965 he gave up work and lived on the money he had saved, devoting all his time to his obsession - the peregrine. He re-wrote his account of this bird five times before submitting it for publication. Although he had no ornithological training and had never written a book before, when The Peregrine was published in 1967 it was received with enthusiastic reviews and praise for his lyrical prose. Later that year he was awarded the distinguished Duff Cooper prize. He was also awarded a substantial Arts Council grant. His second book, The Hill of Summer, was published in 1969 and was also received with unanimous praise by the critics.

From fall to spring, J.A. Baker set out to track the daily comings and goings of a pair of peregrine falcons across the flat fen lands of eastern England. He followed the birds obsessively, observing them in the air and on the ground, in pursuit of their prey, making a kill, eating, and at rest, activities he describes with an extraordinary fusion of precision and poetry. And as he continued his mysterious private quest, his sense of human self slowly dissolved, to be replaced with the alien and implacable consciousness of a hawk.
It is this extraordinary metamorphosis, magical and terrifying, that these beautifully written pages record.

读后感
J.A.贝克的《游隼》被归类为自然文学，但读过就知道它不止于此。自然辽阔，万物有灵有时是人尽皆知的秘密，时常被忽略。忠实的陪伴与分担者，将眼光黏附在高贵的飞行的灵魂之上，用时间和文字去描述那些城市里看不到的细节。 对读者来说，他那些克制、欲言又止的寂静叙述，不仅...
评分1966年的一天，一位中年人走进了一家伦敦出版商的办公室，拿出了厚厚的四百页的书稿，书稿的内容是有关他对自然的深爱——对游隼的痴迷。那时，没有人认识这位已经不惑之年的写作者。他叫John Alec Baker（1926-1987），土生土长于埃塞克斯的切尔姆斯福特郡，没有接受过高等教...

评分《游隼》一本写鹰的书。是一个作家用自己优美的文字，描写游隼日常生活的说科研不科研，说日记不日记，说升华又没多升华的复合体。看这本书让我想起好多曾经看过的科研类“散文”，比如《一平方英寸的寂静》《狗的家世》等等。 我相信很多人可以通过阅读这本书，找到他不同于其...
