讀Vidal的《林肯》已經是十四、五年前的事瞭,讀過的遺憾是圖書館裏隻有一本他的著作……本書雖短,上“聽”不大容易,最初的敘述有點跳躍,平庸的朗讀者和糟糕的製作也是減分項。再聽一遍感覺就好多瞭。封麵上是前三位總統的標準像,實際主要講的是華盛頓和亞當斯任期,主要人物在這三位之外當然還有漢密爾頓。Vidal肯定不能算是嚴謹的曆史學傢,但書中很有些雋語或是幽默值得品味。寫華盛頓過世寫得很剋製,卻催我淚下。不過最令我唏噓的還是結尾那段JFK的感慨:"Maybe it was something in the water," he said helpfully. "I wish we had more of it, the water, that is."

One of the master stylists of American literature, Gore Vidal now provides us with his uniquely irreverent take on America's founding fathers, bringing them to life at key moments of decision in the birthing of our nation.
"Pure Vidal. . . . "Inventing a Nation" is his edgy tribute to the way we were before the fall."--"Los Angeles Times Book Review
""[Vidal offers] details that enliven and . . . reflections on the past that point sharply to today." --Richard Eder, "New York Times
""An engaging [and] . . . unblinking view of our national heroes by one who cherishes them, warts and all."--Edmund S. Morgan, "New York Review of Books
""[Vidal's] quick wit flickers over the canonical tale of our republic's founding, turning it into a dark and deliciously nuanced comedy of men, manners, and ideas."--Amanda Heller, "Boston Sunday Globe"
"This entertaining and enlightening reappraisal of the Founders is a must for buffs of American civilization and its discontents."--"Booklist
""Gore Vidal . . . still understands American history backwards and forwards as few writers ever have."--David Kipen, "National Public Radio"
