Book Description
The Wordsworth Classics covers a huge list of beloved works of literature in English and translations. This growing series is rigorously updated, with scholarly introductions and notes added to new titles.
The diary is that of someone who acknowledges that he is not a "somebody" - Charles Pooter, a clerk in the city of London, chronicles with often hilarious detail the everyday life of the lower middle classes during the great Victorian Age.
From AudioFile
The greatness of George and Weedon Grossmith's masterpiece of comic irony, THE DIARY OF A NOBODY, rests to a large extent on perceptions of class. It purports to be the diary of Charles Pooter, a lower-middle-class individual of the mid-nineteenth century who lives at "The Laurels," Brickfield Terrace, Holloway. This address alone, simultaneously poignant and stifling, reverberates with blandly devastating irony--a note sustained at perfect pitch throughout the book. Pooter is house-proud, thrifty, scrupulous in duty, alive to social niceties and given to the occasional punning witticism, but the story he tells is not quite the story he believes he's telling. Frederick Davidson's impeccable reading is truly inspired, in perfect unity with the Pooteresque view of the world.

没有期望的那么搞笑,不过也蛮搞笑了~ 一想起那个“马拉第二”,我就想笑——哎,小人物的虚荣和健忘总是难免的。。。 还有“股票投资”事件,老爸听儿子的建议,想小小地赚一点却折了本——这样的事我真知道有;没办法,历史总是重演啊~ 最后,我发现,如果我想给我的日记...
評分这本书算不上什么大作,但内容却非常的有趣,可能有些人会认为太过"絮叨"了,不过家长里短,但细细品位还是很不错的一本书。如果你是一个肯耐下心来端详生活的人,那么这本书就再适合不过了。
評分首先疑惑我的是这本书的名字应该怎么翻译,很聪明的,叫做《小人物日记》,nobody意味着我们身边的everyone,好的开始往往是成功的一半,一个吸引人的标题就会吸引一大部分读者;再者如果是内容再涉新猎奇一点,那就向畅销的路上跨了一大步,我相信日记这种文体肯定会有一个固...
評分没有理由,也没有证据,但我觉得这本书和《围城》有点像。 Both of them relate stories of Nobodies. Both of them were written in an age preceeding my birth. However,neither of them will fade into the time as my mortal coil will. If you are Somebo...
評分昨天一天过得闲闲散散的,就拿起《小人物日记》翻看。二十三章,每章只短短的三四页,阅读起来很轻松。中午坐在阳台上晒太阳,看了几页,后来发现风太大,就移入室内继续看了些。下午M来邀吃中饭,就将这本小书塞进包中,在等我的黑芝麻汤圆的间歇又翻看了几页。晚上,去C...
確實不錯,讀來饒有趣味,連錢老都說不錯的書,能不看看麼?!
评分happy medium 還是miserable mediocrity?whatever拉~ 標準英國中産階級老紳士一本正經的記錄(逗比)生活。嘮嘮叨叨生活中每件事情都要寫上一筆,卻又自我感覺略良好,因而雖然沒有在搞笑但是讀起來真的好好笑! 永遠狀況不斷的big red letter day,永遠會齣問題的生活小事諸如enamel paint 。配角也都很齣彩,Lupin 和他的朋友們印象最深。另外深情點贊The Wordsworth Classics係列,讀瞭兩本瞭都很喜歡,排版也不會緊巴巴的讓人沒地方做筆記,開本大小和厚度也適閤隨身攜帶閱讀,這一本的配圖也真的起到瞭illustration之用,附注的100個注釋也很通俗~
评分裏麵有真真切切的生活。
