One of the most talked about scripts of the year, Adaptation is the story of an orchid collector (Chris Cooper), a journalist (Meryl Streep, as author Susan Orlean), and the screenwriter (Charlie Kaufman, played by Nicolas Cage) who, in adapting Orlean's bestselling book The Orchid Thief, writes himself and his twin brother (also played by Cage) into the movie. In the foreword, written exclusively for this Newmarket edition, Orlean reveals her own struggle to tell the story of the orchid, and her delight that "strangely, marvelously, hilariously, Kaufman's screenplay has ended up not being a literal Adaptation of my book, but a spiritual one." In a fascinating interview, Kaufman and Jonze take readers behind the scenes of Adaptation and their other films to speak about how they collaborate, where truth and fiction diverge, the challenges of balancing various storylines, why they do not like to comment on the meaning of their work, and Kaufman's approach to writing: "I try to write in the midst of confusion and be strong enough to stay there, rather than swim to the shore of some kind of conclusion." Finally, screenwriting guru Robert McKee's commentary attempts to analyze Kaufman's work, identifying many of his themes including "that grand twentieth-century preoccupation with the Self." In the acclaimed Newmarket Shooting Script series format, the book includes the complete screenplay, Orlean's foreword, the interview with Kaufman and Jonze, McKee's critical commentary, 24 black-and-white stills, and cast and crew credits.

《Adaptation》这本书给我最深刻的印象,莫过于其语言的精炼和力量。作者的文字功底可见一斑,寥寥数语,便能勾勒出宏大的场景,或是刻画出鲜活的人物。我尤其喜欢他处理对话的方式,每一句台词都饱含深意,既推动了情节发展,又展现了人物性格。这种“少即是多”的写作手法,在当下快餐文化盛行的时代,显得尤为珍贵。读完之后,很多句子依旧在我脑海中回荡,仿佛拥有了生命力。
评分这本书的包装设计就非常吸引我,封面色彩搭配大胆而有冲击力,字体也很有设计感,一看就知道是精心制作的作品。我平时看书比较注重装帧,这本书在这一点上已经让我非常满意了。拿到手里的时候,纸张的质感也很好,不是那种廉价的光面纸,而是带有细微纹理的哑光纸,翻阅起来手感温润,非常舒适。这种细节上的用心,总是能让我对一本书产生更好的期待。我特别喜欢那种能够从书本本身就传递出作者态度和品质的读物,这本书无疑达到了这一点。
评分我是一个比较喜欢挑战思维极限的读者,而《Adaptation》恰恰满足了我的这一点。它所探讨的主题,非常具有前瞻性和深刻性,能够引发我很多关于现实世界和未来发展的思考。我反复阅读了书中的一些段落,每次都能从中挖掘出新的理解和感悟。作者似乎并没有直接给出答案,而是通过层层铺垫,引导读者自己去探索和思考,这种互动式的阅读体验,让我觉得非常有价值。
评分说实话,我拿到《Adaptation》这本书的时候,并没有抱太大的期望,因为市面上同类题材的作品实在太多了。但是,这本书的出现,彻底颠覆了我之前的看法。作者在处理情节上的安排,简直是炉火纯青,节奏张弛有度,让人欲罢不能。每一个转折都来得恰到好处,既出人意料又在情理之中。我是一个很容易被剧情吸引的人,而这本书的剧情走向,更是让我惊叹不已,几乎是屏息凝神地一口气读完。
评分这本《Adaptation》的开篇就给我一种强烈的沉浸感。作者的叙事风格非常独特,字里行间透露出一种深邃的思考,仿佛每一句话都经过了千锤百炼。我尤其欣赏他在描绘人物内心世界时的细腻笔触,那种复杂的情感纠葛、微妙的心态变化,被他刻画得入木三分,让人感同身受。读着读着,我感觉自己仿佛也置身于故事之中,与主人公一同经历着他们的喜怒哀乐。这种能够轻易调动读者情绪的作品,实在难得。
