图书描述

Jeannette Walls's memoir The Glass Castle was "nothing short of spectacular" ( Entertainment Weekly ). Now, in Half Broke Horses , she brings us the story of her grandmother, told in a first-person voice that is authentic, irresistible, and triumphant. "Those old cows knew trouble was coming before we did." So begins the story of Lily Casey Smith, Jeannette Walls's no nonsense, resourceful, and spectacularly compelling grandmother. By age six, Lily was helping her father break horses. At fifteen, she left home to teach in a frontier town -- riding five hundred miles on her pony, alone, to get to her job. She learned to drive a car ("I loved cars even more than I loved horses. They didn't need to be fed if they weren't working, and they didn't leave big piles of manure all over the place") and fly a plane. And, with her husband Jim, she ran a vast ranch in Arizona. She raised two children, one of whom is Jeannette's memorable mother, Rosemary Smith Walls, unforgettably portrayed in The Glass Castle . Lily survived tornadoes, droughts, floods, the Great Depression, and the most heartbreaking personal tragedy. She bristled at prejudice of all kinds -- against women, Native Americans, and anyone else who didn't fit the mold. Rosemary Smith Walls always told Jeannette that she was like her grandmother, and in this true-life novel, Jeannette Walls channels that kindred spirit. Half Broke Horses is Laura Ingalls Wilder for adults, as riveting and dramatic as Isak Dinesen's Out of Africa or Beryl Markham's West with the Night . Destined to become a classic, it will transfix audiences everywhere.

珍妮特•沃尔斯(Jeannette Walls),美国著名记者,撰有《闲聊:流言世界的内幕》、《闲聊:流言如何变成新闻,新闻怎样成为另一场秀》等书。二○○五年出版回忆录《玻璃城堡》,首次公开自己鲜为人知、与众不同的家庭背景和成长经历,从而蜚声文坛。派拉蒙公司买下了此书的电影版权,因《饥饿游戏》在好莱坞大火特火的女星詹妮弗-劳伦斯将担纲主演,和李安合作《少年Pi的奇幻漂流》的制片人吉尔-奈特担当电影制片人。 目前此书已经销售出三十二国版权。二○○九年珍妮特•沃尔斯再度推出新作《半驯之马》(Half Broke Horses),被《纽约时报》评为二○○九年十大好书。这两部作品至今依然高踞各大畅销书排行榜。就在今年7月份,《纽约时报》非虚构类畅销书周榜上,《玻璃城堡》仍名列第7位,距其出版时间已经8年了。

读后感

这是一本为了看而看,看完后会血脉喷张的书--《半驯之马》。临近还书的8小时,一口气看完。起初是为自己精心挑选而不舍,越递进故事情节,越被这位典型的美国化的传奇女性所吸引。那种流淌在血液里的勇敢和智慧、自由和桀骜不驯,使她的人生过的刺激而张弛有度。她是几岁的驯马...

这本书让我明白,就算是纽约时报推荐的好书畅销书,也是一个大众追捧的结果。一碗合格的美式鸡汤,加上美国西部牛仔故事的猎奇佐料,人人爱喝,填饱肚子却不挨饿。女主人公的形象是一个完全的平面,她从一开始就几乎绝对坚强,就算是被骗婚的心伤,和之后对婚姻的逃避,妹妹的...

那时,辽宁省还是全国出版的一个重镇,小布老虎呀,脉望呀,万象呀,凡是辽宁出版界策划出版的书系,几乎都是爆款。我就是在那个时候认识恺蒂的,她的《书缘情缘》,非常喜欢,用一位网友所言,“她的妙处不在大或深,而是有一个宽阔的国际视野。登泰山而小天下,眼界自是不同...
