What is it in a story that takes it to the New York Times Best Seller List for three years or 156 weeks? When I read this book, that was what I wanted to know. I look at the book on the shelf and think, "What was there that I just did not get?"
The love story set in the 1960s is about Robert Kincaid, a renowned photographer, and a Francesca Johnson, a farm wife. The story is based on her diaries and the personal effects he had sent to her after he died.
She is secluded and alone much of the time. When Robert comes to photograph the bridges, her family is away at the state fair. They are, like Romeo and Juliet, star-crossed lovers who will only remain in each other's hearts and minds for all of their life, though they only shared four days. Her diaries indicate that for about thirty years Francesca maintained the emotional contact she committed to Kincaid by seeing his photography in National Geography, news clippings, and reading the articles written about him.
It is easy to be in love for four days. Anyone can. New love is exciting, romance is thrilling, and a new lover's touch is magical. Yes, it will last forever -- if you do not have to wake up to reality. It was simple to see this aspect of the enchantment about their story. Francesca wrote of the agony that she felt when choosing whether to go with Kincaid or stay with her family, her children. This was the crux of her story; stay with her husband and children, or run off with a stranger.
I could never understand that, my child is first. Today the book is on my daughter's shelf, and she knows more about the emotions that drove Kincaid and Francesca than I ever will. I am too practical; but she tells me I have never loved as they did -- and she just might be right because I still wonder why this book sold millions. Suspend disbelief and enjoy the romantic interlude.
Perhaps I should have seen the movie (I am a Clint Eastwood fan). For me the book was worth three stars, but the millions of people who loved this book and movie cannot all be wrong, so it must be a five. I guess I will give it a four.

若论对爱情惊世骇俗的坚守,《廊桥遗梦》应该是经典中的经典。 有人说,《廊桥遗梦》不过是讲述了一段婚外情,但我不愿意用“婚外情”三个字来简单的概括它。一是因为这段爱情远比“婚外情”复杂,二是这段爱情又远比“婚外情”单纯。既复杂又纯粹,既真实的存在,又如梦一样遥...
评分 评分四天,能干什么?相对于上帝的创世纪,四天工期太紧,所以,只能小规模一些,成就一段荡气回肠的爱情——《廊桥遗梦》。在赞美这个始乱终不乱、在不道德的路线上旗帜鲜明的维护道德的非典型婚外恋之前,我觉得首先应该对故事中伟大的丈夫理查德先生致意诚挚的感谢和良好的祝愿...
评分每个人都希望爱情是轰轰烈烈的证明,其实更多时候,却事与愿违。 可能在未来某一刻,就会遇到让你怦然心动的那个人,那时你心底眼底都是他,想到他时心头微甜。 《廊桥遗梦》向我们展示,不是所有的爱情都可以摆脱环境的束缚,或许也包括心境等等原因,但是短暂的相聚已经是永...
评分《廊桥遗梦》这本书看了一遍又一遍,每次看都让我要不哭一通,要不心里憋的慌,堵很久。后来好久都没有再看。前一阵方大同的《nothing gonna changes my love for you》很火,让我就又想起了它。于是熬夜又读了一遍。 想起来原来的每次难受都是因为它让你感到了共鸣,每个人心...
电影还是相当不错的
评分虽然是编的,但跟真的一样.不服不行.
评分动人的爱情,相互守望,超越一切
评分很小一本书。都说电影改编的好,但是看着小说却哭了。想听那首Francesca。
评分这个寒假最早读完的原版书 因为实在…… 以我CET-6都不敢查分的英语水平也觉得很简单的 想入门原版书的可以参考。因为是原版所以感受也很微妙又直接 不否认是位油菜花的作者 很多构词造句排列都很有灵性 但无奈故事真是太一般了 要把一夜情写成200多页也着实不易 所以不免赘疣的过多细节。然后中文版就尽量别读了 应该会更没养分吧 哎 有可能是我内心不够丰富吧 觉得这么个小破故事真心对不起序言里说的“治好了他对于爱情的偏见”……
