懷爾德在美國文學史上有著特殊的地位,他是唯一同時榮膺普利策戲劇奬和小說奬的美國作傢。作為劇作傢,他更是與尤金•奧尼爾、阿瑟•米勒、田納西•威廉斯齊名,並稱為美國四大現代戲劇傢。懷爾德為美國現代戲劇的靈魂人物與先驅,被譽為“二十世紀美國最後一位寓言傢”。
懷爾德傢族與中國緣分深厚。他的父親曾任美國駐華總領事,懷爾德曾在煙颱念過書。因此,他的作品中常常展現齣帶有中國氣息的哲思,如因果、平凡是真、活在當下。

"On Friday noon, July the twentieth, 1714, the finest bridge in all Peru broke and precipitated five travelers into the gulf below."

By chance, a monk witnesses the tragedy. Brother Juniper then embarks on a quest to prove that it was divine intervention rather than chance that led to the deaths of those who perished in the tragedy. His search leads to his own death -- and to the author's timeless investigation into the nature of love and the meaning of the human condition. </p> This new edition of Wilder’s 1928 Pulitzer Prize winning novel contains a new foreword by Russell Banks.
爱是博大的 ,亦是 最珍重的 。抓住身边的爱 ,这样不会有 迷茫,即使 迷茫 ,也是在爱的海洋中 。 “我们会被短暂地爱着,然后再被遗忘。但是有这份爱就已足够;所有爱的冲动,都会回到产生这些冲动的爱里。甚至对于爱来说,记忆也并非不可或缺。在生者的国度与死者的国度...
評分What a natural story teller!!! 刚读完两小章,我觉得Thornton Wilder简直是讲故事的高手,看似平淡无奇的开头,娓娓道来的情节,易被猜破的结局,但是读完很难不让人深思。上帝又或者某种超自然力量是否真的存在?这个故事让我想起了貌似是Robert Frost写的一首名叫Design的...
