During years of study and exploration, Stephen Lyman discovered his calling: to paint the wilderness with passionate commitment, and to communicate the joy found there in each image. Through his beautiful paintings and extraordinary photography he celebrates the importance of the wilderness as a whole.
Into the Wilderness is more than a splendid art book. With it, you can journey with Lyman into a wilderness very few have experienced. You can share the sensation of being in the wild--exploring, discovering, studying, and enjoying the all-encompassing beauty of unspoiled nature.
Into the Wilderness features Stephen Lyman's favorite paintings, as well as many unpublished paintings and sketches. In addition, the artist includes more than one hundred of his own photographs showing details and overviews of the natural world that inspires his paintings. Through Lyman's paintings and photography, and in the words of writer and former Sierra magazine editor Mark Mardon, each of us can experience the deep quiet of the woods, find serenity at the water's edge, climb mountains, and be completely at home in the world of the wilderness.
Mark Mardon's writing developed out of a fascination with nature during his childhood in Flagstaff, Arizona. Even at a young age, he roamed the countryside to scrupulously record the descriptions and habits of lizards and snakes. He developed his journalistic skills in Peru, where he wrote for the South American Explorers Club and others. After obtaining a degree in environmental studies from Vermont's School for International Training, he secured an assignment as associate editor of Sierra magazine, where he worked from 1986 through 1994. Into the Wilderness is his first book.
Stephen Lyman is an explorer who specializes in painting the most elusive moments in nature. His love of the great outdoors stems from a childhood spent in the Pacific Northwest, where hiking in Snake River country was a regular family ritual. Lyman has since spent years developing his own style of painting. He has continued to discover the wonders of the natural world and of living a natural lifestyle. He has been a frequent participant in the prestigious international "Birds in Art" show at the Leigh Yawkey Woodson Art Museum in Wausau, Wisconsin, and was invited to be "Artist of the Year" at the 1991 Pacific Rim Wildlife Art show

这本书的整体氛围营造,达到了近乎令人窒息的真实感,但我说的“窒息”并非贬义,而是指那种完全被故事环境所包围的状态。作者对光影的捕捉尤其精湛,我仿佛能清晰地分辨出正午阳光的刺眼和黄昏时分那种带着忧郁色调的光线。我甚至能感觉到空气中水分的变化,从干燥到潮湿,从稀薄到浓厚。这种全方位的感官刺激,让阅读体验远远超出了单纯的文字吸收。书的后记,虽然篇幅不长,但却像是一把钥匙,解开了前面所有伏笔的象征意义,令人拍案叫绝。它没有提供简单的答案,而是提出了更深刻的问题,关于探索的意义和人类在自然面前的谦卑。总而言之,这是一本需要慢下来、细细品味的佳作,它要求读者付出专注,而回报则是远超预期的精神盛宴,绝对值得反复阅读。
评分这本书的文学造诣,老实说,比我预期的要高出不少。它不仅仅是一个简单的探险故事,更像是一部关于人类精神韧性的史诗。我尤其关注那些复杂的象征手法,作者似乎非常擅长利用具体的自然景象来投射角色的内心世界。比如,那段关于河流改道的描写,初看是地理上的变化,细品之下,却是对人生不可逆转的选择和命运的深刻隐喻。语言风格上,它有一种古典的韵味,但又夹杂着现代主义的破碎感,这种结合非常大胆且成功。我试着去模仿其中一句描述山峰的句子,结果发现自己笔下的文字立刻失去了那种磅礴的气势和深邃的意境,这让我更加佩服作者的功力。阅读过程中,我不得不频繁地停下来,查阅一些书中提到的植物或地质名词,这表明作者在资料搜集和细节打磨上下了极大的功夫,确保了故事背景的真实可信度,而非空泛的想象堆砌。这种对细节的执着,是区分优秀作品和普通作品的关键所在。
评分从节奏感上来说,这本书就像是一部精心编排的交响乐。开篇的慢板,铺陈出广袤的背景和主角的迷茫;随后的快板,是几次突如其来的自然灾害或人际冲突,将情节推向高潮;而当故事进入尾声,它又回归到一种近乎冥想的宁静,让所有经历过的一切沉淀下来。我特别欣赏作者在描述“时间流逝”的手法上,它不是线性的,而是以一种更贴近人类感知的、循环的方式呈现的。我感觉自己仿佛也跟着主角一起经历了漫长而无尽的季节更替,身体的疲惫和精神的升华感是同步的。书的后半部分,对“家园”和“归属感”的探讨,触及了非常深层次的哲学命题,但作者的处理方式极其克制,不煽情,不说教,只是把问题摆在那里,留给读者自己去体会和回答。这种留白,恰恰是其魅力所在。
评分这本书的对话部分,处理得极其微妙和真实。角色间的交流很少是直白的“信息交换”,更多的是一种试探、一种隐藏和一种未言明的默契。有几场关键的争执场景,我几乎能听到他们声嘶力竭或者压抑到极致的声音,那种情感的张力是通过极简的用词和停顿来实现的,非常高明。我喜欢作者很少使用“内心独白”来解释人物动机的做法,而是通过他们的行动、他们看向某物的眼神,以及他们对环境做出的反应来展现其复杂性。这要求读者必须保持高度的专注力,去“解码”文本,这无疑是一种更具参与感的阅读体验。特别是主角与那位年长向导之间的互动,那种亦师亦友、又带着某种宿命般对立的关系,刻画得入木三分,他们的对话往往是全书的“情绪高光点”,简单几句,却蕴含着千言万语。
评分这本书的开头,那种沉浸式的体验简直让人欲罢不能。作者对环境的描摹细腻入微,仿佛能闻到雨后泥土的芬芳,感受到林间清晨薄雾的冰凉。主角的内心挣扎和对外在世界的探索交织在一起,形成了一种强烈的张力。我特别欣赏作者在不经意间流露出的那种对自然的敬畏之心,文字本身就带着一种原始的力量感。叙事节奏的把控也极其到位,时而紧凑得让人屏住呼吸,时而又舒缓得如同老旧的留声机慢悠悠地播放着一段悠长的旋律。我读到中间部分时,有那么几页,我甚至放下书,走到窗边,试图捕捉一丝窗外微风带来的野外气息,足见其文字的魔力。那种深入骨髓的孤独感和自我发现的过程,被描绘得既残酷又温柔,让人在阅读的同时,也在进行一场深刻的自我对话。这本书的结构非常巧妙,每一章的结尾都像一个精心设置的钩子,让你迫不及待地想知道下一步会发生什么,完全没有冗余的部分,每一个场景的设置、每一句对话的选择,都像是经过千锤百炼的宝石,闪耀着独特的光芒。
