In 1942, a dashing young man who liked nothing so much as a heated game of poker, a good bottle of scotch, and the company of a pretty girl hopped a merchant ship to England. He was Robert Capa, the brilliant and daring photojournalist, and Collier's magazine had put him on assignment to photograph the war raging in Europe. In these pages, Capa recounts his terrifying journey through the darkest battles of World War II and shares his memories of the men and women of the Allied forces who befriended, amused, and captivated him along the way. His photographs are masterpieces -- John G. Morris, Magnum Photos' first executive editor, called Capa "the century's greatest battlefield photographer" -- and his writing is by turns riotously funny and deeply moving.

From Sicily to London, Normandy to Algiers, Capa experienced some of the most trying conditions imaginable, yet his compassion and wit shine on every page of this book. Charming and profound, Slightly Out of Focus is a marvelous memoir told in words and pictures by an extraordinary man.

书如其人,清晰简练,极富感染力,书也不长,和作者的生命一样,短暂而精彩,在忧伤弥漫的硝烟之中。

20131102想读。对个人生死,战争成败,家国命运统统言笑豁达,几乎带些无厘头的感觉。不羁不畏的粗线条下又仍容得下让人心肝疼的细节,如意大利童子军葬礼上太小的儿童棺木,解放巴黎时即将被鲜血覆盖的口红印,攻取柏林时年轻战士最终成为遗像的照片,等等。美酒与爱情是唯二生存必需品,这大概是这个战地记者完全不计生死的原因吧。

评分

本以为是一本很沉重的书,却时不时被capa的幽默逗乐。但真的没有什么比在战场上试图去苦中作乐,更让人唏嘘不已的。还有一个片段是海明威对着capa光火,说capa老是躲在后面是不是就等着拍下著名作家被袭击身亡的一瞬间。当然了他们关系还是很铁的。

What is an ordinary life?

单最后一页 以为是出自一个一篇有始无终的爱情小说的结尾;却没想到来自世界上最著名war photojournalist 的著作。看书之前我以为这会是一本荡气回肠 刀光血影的小说:或许有煽情的文字;大量描写战争残酷的话语;作者在在枪林弹雨中对人生的感悟 对今生的回顾 对生活的向往 等。但是读的过程中觉得作者是一枚柔情的逗逼。并且我对二战的了解没有增长多少 反而记得是Pink, 酒精,party,干爹海明威,永远的护照问题;跳伞;在各种交通工具上追赶war zone 等偏离主题的场景。有几个片段印象深刻 第一是children’s funeral; 在诺曼底他回到船上因为害怕;年轻人在他身边死去;这些记录又体现出他逗逼于敏感共存的特质,以及他的真诚坦率。不知他是如何用轻描淡写的方式写的这本书?
