endless capacity to hope
評分我最喜歡的角色,是宴會上在蓋茨比書房裏大驚小怪最後又在葬禮上齣現的那個莫名其妙的人。
評分追求愛情,總比追求金錢地位什麼好一些吧;並不是因為前者高尚,而是難以達到。
評分無論讀多少遍,都覺得還是那麼好。
評分君乃在夢中耳。
Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald (September 24, 1896 – December 21, 1940) was an American author of novels and short stories, whose works are the paradigm writings of the Jazz Age, a term he coined himself. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest American writers of the 20th century.[1] Fitzgerald is considered a member of the "Lost Generation" of the 1920s. He finished four novels: This Side of Paradise, The Beautiful and Damned, The Great Gatsby—his most famous—and Tender Is the Night. A fifth, unfinished novel, The Love of the Last Tycoon, was published posthumously. Fitzgerald also wrote many short stories that treat themes of youth and promise along with despair and age.
In 1922, F. Scott Fitzgerald announced his decision to write "something new--something extraordinary and beautiful and simple and intricately patterned." That extraordinary, beautiful, intricately patterned, and above all, simple novel became The Great Gatsby, arguably Fitzgerald's finest work and certainly the book for which he is best known. A portrait of the Jazz Age in all of its decadence and excess, Gatsby captured the spirit of the author's generation and earned itself a permanent place in American mythology. Self-made, self-invented millionaire Jay Gatsby embodies some of Fitzgerald's--and his country's--most abiding obsessions: money, ambition, greed, and the promise of new beginnings. "Gatsby believed in the green light, the orgiastic future that year by year recedes before us. It eluded us then, but that's no matter--tomorrow we will run faster, stretch out our arms farther.... And one fine morning--" Gatsby's rise to glory and eventual fall from grace becomes a kind of cautionary tale about the American Dream.
It's also a love story, of sorts, the narrative of Gatsby's quixotic passion for Daisy Buchanan. The pair meet five years before the novel begins, when Daisy is a legendary young Louisville beauty and Gatsby an impoverished officer. They fall in love, but while Gatsby serves overseas, Daisy marries the brutal, bullying, but extremely rich Tom Buchanan. After the war, Gatsby devotes himself blindly to the pursuit of wealth by whatever means--and to the pursuit of Daisy, which amounts to the same thing. "Her voice is full of money," Gatsby says admiringly, in one of the novel's more famous descriptions. His millions made, Gatsby buys a mansion across Long Island Sound from Daisy's patrician East Egg address, throws lavish parties, and waits for her to appear. When she does, events unfold with all the tragic inevitability of a Greek drama, with detached, cynical neighbor Nick Carraway acting as chorus throughout. Spare, elegantly plotted, and written in crystalline prose, The Great Gatsby is as perfectly satisfying as the best kind of poem.
很多年前,我在中国南方某个城市海边的一个高校演讲,讲完之后答问环节了,有一个年轻人起来举手,他说:“梁老师我不是来问问题的,我是要你看清楚我这张脸,你要记住我的名字,我叫什么什么什么。” 我觉得很有意思嘛,问他,这是为什么呢? 他说:“这是因为你会发现有一天...
評分“爵士时代的挽歌”之类的说法,对The Great Gatsby是个蹩脚的评价。且不说这部小说出版时,距大萧条还有四年多的时间,这个故事的背景,也完全可以放在1900年代、50年代、80、90年代,以及刚刚过去这个十年的中期。唯一可以勉强与爵士时代挂上钩的,或许只有Fitzgerald华丽而...
評分 評分盖茨比的死应该由谁来负责:是开枪的人?如果他是自杀的呢?还是说出肇事车是属于盖茨比从而达到嫁祸目的的汤姆·布坎农?还是守望者盖茨比的等待对象黛西?还是造梦者盖茨比本人? 汤姆·布坎农在三个场合遇到盖茨比,第一次盖茨比是尼克(他在文章里充当叙述者)的朋友,双...
評分等待的哀歌 当我翻完《了不起的盖茨比》的最后一页,我莫名其妙的回忆起一年前的一个秋夜阅读果戈理《涅瓦大街》的情景。当我在涅瓦大街迷人的街灯和喧闹的人群中目睹一个纯真又孱弱的年轻人的激情,被现实的荒谬彻底击碎的时候,我感到一种难以名状的情绪令我无处遁形。庇斯卡...
