"We know the old adage about judging books by their covers, but how could you not when the covers are as lovely as these?"
-Vogue (U.K.)
The jacket design by Coralie Bickford-Smith reflects the elegance and glamour of the Art Deco period paired with the modern aesthetic of mechanical repetition. Each jacket comes with a detachable bookmark.
Anthony and Gloria are the essence of Jazz Age glamour. A brilliant and magnetic couple, they fling themselves at life with an energy that is thrilling. New York is a playground where they dance and drink for days on end. Their marriage is a passionate theatrical performance; they are young, rich, alive and lovely and they intend to inherit the earth. But as money becomes tight, their marriage becomes impossible. And with their inheritance still distant, Anthony and Gloria must grow up and face reality; they may be beautiful but they are also damned.
F. Scott Fitzgerald was born in St. Paul, Minnesota, in 1896. He attended Princeton University and published his first novel in 1920. That same year he married Zelda Sayre. The couple divided their time between New York, Paris, and the Riviera, becoming a part of the American expatriate circle that included Gertrude Stein, Ernest Hemingway, and John Dos Passos. Fitzgerald was a major new literary voice, and his masterpieces include The Beautiful and Damned, The Great Gatsby, and Tender Is the Night. He died of a heart attack in 1940 at the age of forty-four, while working on The Love of the Last Tycoon.x
相比于菲茨杰拉德的另一个长篇《了不起的盖茨比》,我想这本书更有撼动人心的力量,它像一面镜子,兀自出现在我们面前,让我们不得不正视自己、端详自己。 人究竟要怎样活着才算不失败? 安东尼在小说里像个可怜虫。在祖父眼里他是一个无所事事、只知道喝酒享...
评分是一本讲纸醉金迷的书,舞会、漂亮的年轻人、空虚,最终不可避免地走向了毁灭和堕落 一开始看有些很有意思的细节,比如它的小标题、还有“天堂重现”那部分 我尤其想讲“天堂重现”部分,它当然非常不同是“造物主”和一个美人意象在讲话,以一个在跳脱这个时代或者说是历史的...
评分看短篇时一直理解不了别人口中菲茨杰拉德的写作才华,直到我看完了长篇!不由得感叹,这个男人的功力实在是太深厚了。 《漂亮冤家》大部分来自于他自己的生活经历,对于金钱又爱又恨的情感,爱情里激情过后的疲乏感,生活的奢靡,觥筹交错的喧嚣。以安东尼和格洛利亚的爱情和婚...
评分菲茨杰拉德似乎是村上春树最为佩服的作家 村上春树曾说过菲茨杰拉德的《了不起的盖茨比》里面的每句话都说得十分出色,由此菲茨杰拉德的功力可想而知。 《挪威的森林》和《美丽与毁灭》都是我喜欢的小说,但菲茨杰拉德犹胜一筹。 《美丽与毁灭》里面也几乎是句句珠玑,充满了讽...
