"A very warm, very engaging read. . . . The reader falls totally under his spell." --"Associated Press " The second volume in the multimillion copy bestselling series Millions of readers have delighted in the wonderful storytelling and everyday miracles of James Herriot in the over thirty years since his delightful animal stories were first introduced to the world. Now in a new edition for the first time in a decade, "All Things Bright and Beautiful" is the beloved sequel to Herriot's first collection, "All Creatures Great and Small," and picks up as Herriot, now newly married, journeys among the remote hillside farms and valley towns of the Yorkshire Dales, caring for their inhabitants---both two- and four-legged. Throughout, Herriot's deep compassion, humor, and love of life shine out as we laugh, cry, and delight in his portraits of his many, varied animal patients and their equally varied owners. "Humor, realism, sensitivity, earthiness; animals comic and tragic; and people droll, pathetic, courageous, eccentric---all of whom he views with the same gentle compassion and a lively sense of the sad, the ridiculous, and the admirable." --"Columbus Dispatch"

【我很喜欢这本书,很喜欢里面的动物的故事。读这本书时,让我无限怀念小时候家中果园里饲养的那些动物。我们家也养过牛羊,还有北京鸭,大麻兔,有鸡有鹅,还有马,但是多年之后,我还是最怀念那是大白鹅。】 记得那时十一岁,小学六年级毕业。那年春天,在我的死缠烂磨下,...
评分是在我的早孕期开始阅读这本书的。初初并不知道自己已经怀孕了,书读到一半的时候,在医院通过抽血检查最终确认了。 很庆幸在这新生初始的时期在读这样的一本书,每一个小故事温馨朴实而又生机勃勃,清新的味道令人极之愉快。 此刻,孕育在腹中的这个生命是我期待已久的,虽...
评分虽然整套系列我才阅读了仅此一本,却情不自禁地爱上了这位淳朴可爱的乡间兽医!他充满灵性与温情的文字,让我这个对小动物们有些天生畏惧的人,也开始留意平日偶然遇见的小动物们:街边的流浪狗狗,广场上的小麻雀,墙头的小野猫!我不再像以前对他们冷漠疏离,不闻不问,匆匆...
评分书没有读多少,胃口却越来越刁,想找本睡前最适合的越来越难了。但是从我买回英国兽医吉米•哈利的两本《万物既伟大又渺小》和《万物有灵且美》之后,这个问题就不存在了。而且令我遗憾的是有时我不得不舍它们而去看几本新书------尽管我已是看第三遍了。 一本翻...
评分自从彼得·梅尔的《普罗旺斯的一年》之后,《万物有灵且美》是头一本让我从头笑到尾的轻松故事集。吉米·哈利就像每个饭局上必不可少的活宝或者是“讲故事高手”,将乡间生活娓娓道来,令在座的每一位都笑得前仰后合——唯一不爽的大概只有辛苦做饭的大厨,因为,没有人...
很期待可以看看作者的写作风格。
