有心人笔下的破岛。
评分有心人笔下的破岛。
评分幽默是好的,但是就单纯地看这些自嘲,似乎也不是很好笑啊,可能是因为我没有在英国生活过吧
评分extremely amusing
评分well with expectation as such, disappointment is perhaps all too natural... managed to extract from my dried up being a few laughs at the very beginning, very much due to my glorious mood in retrospect, but bored me considerably till the very end...esp. after a reading experience like Dorian Gray, most unfortunately...
比尔·布莱森,世界知名的非虚构作家,1951年出生于美国艾奥瓦州,曾任职于伦敦《泰晤士报》与《独立报》,同时也为《纽约时报》、《国家地理杂志》等撰文。作品主要包括旅游类随笔、幽默独特的科普作品——比如《万物简史》、《母语》等等,横跨多种领域,皆为非学院派的幽默之作。他的作品诙谐嘲谑的风格堪称一绝,整体上举重若轻,能让普通读者产生很强的认同感,不失为雅俗共赏的典范,深受读者喜爱,也获得很高的评价。每部作品均高踞美国、英国、加拿大畅销排行榜前茅。
比尔·布莱森之所以能在二十世纪的旅游文学中占据一席之地,并成为目前世界公认的最有趣的旅游文学作家,是因为他擅长用不同的眼光来看待他所游历的世界,他真切地捕捉到了一个旅人的内心感受。自然地理、生活情趣、社会时态,布莱森信手拈来无不奇趣。他的尖刻加上他的博学,让他的文字充满了智慧、机敏和幽默。作为在英国生活了二十多年的美国人,他的作品又兼具了开朗风趣、绝不怕粗俗的美式调侃和冷峻犀利、一针见血的英式嘲讽。
After nearly two decades in Britain, Bill Bryson took the decision to move back to the States for a while, to let his kids experience life in another country, to give his wife the chance to shop until 10 p.m. seven nights a week, and, most of all, because he had read the 3.7 million Americans believed that they had been abducted by aliens at one time or another, and it was thus clear to him that his people needed him. But before leaving his much-loved home in North Yorkshire, Bryson insisted on taking one last trip around Britain, a sort of valedictory tour of the green and kindly island that had so long been his home. His aim was to take stock of the nation's public face and private parts (as it were), and to analyse what precisely it was he loved so much about a country that had produced Marmite, a military hero whose dying wish was to be kissed by a fellow named Hardy, place names like Farleigh Wallop, Titsey and Shellow Bowells, people who said 'Mustn't grumble', and Gardeners' Question Time. So in Notes from a Small Island, Bryson turns a laconic but affectionate eye on his adopted country. Britain will never seem the same again.
怎么说呢,对这本书我有着复杂的感情。它让我平淡的生活平添了很多笑声,也让我收获了在读书时和我共处一室的人们的异样眼光,更要命的是,我眼角的细纹仿佛又增加了几条,虽然我已经尽量按住眼角大笑,但有时爆发式的大笑是那么猝不及防,根本来不及保护我可怜的眼角了。 也...
评分自从半年前的英国游后一直想看一本关于英国文化的随笔。偶然间发现了这本《全民自黑的英国》,随立即下单入手翻阅起来。可能这本书对于特别了解英国的人看后会特别喜欢吧,书中的幽默调侃确实时不时让人看的过程中一直嘴角上扬。并且几乎每个章节都站在了美国人的角度“批判”...
评分稍有些失望呢,刚开始看时,觉得作者有些过于贫了,就像是非要博你一笑似的过于卖弄自己的风趣了。其实当初是冲着黄昱宁的译笔和陆谷孙的推介买下的,所谓希望越大,失望也就就大。不过,看到后半本时倒得好很多了,是我适应了?本也就是消遣,不去细琢磨了。反正读书也...
评分去英国访学,才发现对这个英语的发源地了解很少,可能主要是因为,国人成长和开阔见识的过程中,美国的影响如日中天,以至于英国的面目不是被遮盖就是被混杂和扭曲了。相对于美国人长在身上的自信满满、张扬鲜亮的派头,英国人的礼貌、沉静和内敛其实更接近东方,而所在小镇不...
