02/28/2017 P 倒不能說多有意思,可是對於薩凡納小城的描寫確實對旅行大有裨益。
評分十五年前看過改編電影完全沒任何印象,前幾天去旅行纔意識到這書是寫薩瓦納的,因為完全被城市迷住所以迴來立即找來讀,驚為天人,感覺被作者帶著又走瞭一遍全城所有的house tour, history tour, ghost tour,字裏行間都能體會到小城的氣息,這種奇怪獨特又迷人的氣質勾得我也想一次次再迴去,或者默默住上半年。如何寫一座城市,這書真是極緻瞭。電影根本改不齣來的。
評分逼格極高的pure gossip。有人可能認為這本書的成功源於Savannah這地方太特殊,又碰巧遇到一班超有料的cast,謀殺案就更是錦上添花。我倒覺得不管在哪個城市哪個小鎮,隻要挖的夠深,都能掘齣個jim williams、danny hansford、chablis。
評分The ordinary became extraordinary. Eccentrics thrived. Every nuance and quirk of personality achieved greater brilliance in that lush enclosure than would have been possible anywhere else in the world.

Shots rang out in Savannah's grandest mansion in the misty,early morning hours of May 2, 1981.Was it murder or self-defense?For nearly a decade, the shooting and its aftermath reverberated throughout this hauntingly beautiful city of moss-hung oaks and shaded squares.John Berendt's sharply observed, suspenseful, and witty narrative reads like a thoroughly engrossing novel, and yet it is a work of nonfiction.Berendt skillfully interweaves a hugely entertaining first-person account of life in this isolated remnant of the Old South with the unpredictable twists and turns of a landmark murder case.
It is a spellbinding story peopled by a gallery of remarkable characters: the well-bred society ladies of the Married Woman's Card Club; the turbulent young redneck gigolo; the hapless recluse who owns a bottle of poison so powerful it could kill every man, woman, and child in Savannah; the aging and profane Southern belle who is the "soul of pampered self-absorption"; the uproariously funny black drag queen; the acerbic and arrogant antiques dealer; the sweet-talking, piano-playing con artist; young blacks dancing the minuet at the black debutante ball; and Minerva, the voodoo priestess who works her magic in the graveyard at midnight.These and other Savannahians act as a Greek chorus, with Berendt revealing the alliances, hostilities, and intrigues that thrive in a town where everyone knows everyone else.
Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil is a sublime and seductive reading experience.Brilliantly conceived and masterfully written, this enormously engaging portrait of a most beguiling Southern city has become a modern classic.
If Winesburg Ohio married In Cold Blood , they would probably produce a child like Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil , who bears some resemblance to both parents ,yet definitely has its own distinctive features and worth. If the weirdoes in Winesburg ...
評分小说由于它的的虚构性,其中每一个出场人物必须被人为安排一个准确而合适的支点。每一个人物,无论大小主次,一定与作品中的整个大环境有某种内在逻辑关系。要说得通,否则不予存在。要紧凑,消除节外生枝的可能。 而伯兰特的人物不需要这些理由,他们存在因为确实存在。...
評分【读品】罗豫/文 虽然在现代小说中,真理与谎言、现实与虚幻这些老对头披着彼此的衣服跑来跑去早已不是什么新鲜事,但这本《午夜善恶花园》还是让人吃了一大惊。如果不看前言和介绍,恐怕读到最后一页也弄不清楚,这究竟是一本小说,还是一部关于美国南部小城沙凡纳的纪实报道...
評分不晓得有没有人考证过,炎热的气候会不会让人比较爱唠叨,而寒冷的气候是不是就让人和爱斯基摩人一样地惜字如金、沉默寡言?兴许,是因为闷热潮湿的天气在作怪,让美国南部的小城居民都用劲没处使,染上了爱八卦的毛病,无论好事坏事,一下子就能传遍全城,人人都知道别人在干...
評分看完书之后就想,它如何能高居《纽约时报》畅销书排行榜5年之久?虽然中西方人的阅读习惯和审美标准会有差异,但是差异其实远没有大家想想的那么大。而真正优秀的文学作品不管是放在任何地域和环境中都是同样精彩的。 如果说这本书最吸引人眼球的地方,就是“沙凡纳”这个在...
