Perceptive, funny, and nostalgic, E.B. White's stroll around Manhattan remains the quintessential love letter to the city, written by one of America's foremost literary figures. The New York Times has named Here is New York one of the ten best books ever written about the metropolis, and The New Yorker calls it "the wittiest essay, and one of the most perceptive, ever done on the city.
E.B. White's underground classic, and one of the most beautifully written, accurate portrayals of the world's most diverse and interesting city.
Elwyn Brooks White was a leading American essayist, author, humorist, poet and literary stylist and author of such beloved children's classics as Charlotte's Web, Stuart Little, and The Trumpet of the Swan. He graduated from Cornell University in 1921 and, five or six years later, joined the staff of The New Yorker magazine. He authored over seventeen books of prose and poetry and was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Letters in 1973.
Funnily enough for such a famous writer, he always said that he found writing difficult and bad for one's disposition but he kept at it!
Mr. White has won countless awards, including the 1971 National Medal for Literature and the Laura Ingalls Wilder Medal, which commended him for making “a substantial and lasting contribution to literature for children.”
认识怀特,是从他的散文集《这就是纽约》和《重游缅湖》开始的。在今年的这个难熬夏天里,因了在书店里与怀特作品的一次不期而遇,便不由自主地被这透着诙谐的、干净而充满温暖的文字所吸引,以致于忘记了室外的酷热与喧嚣。 E.B怀特,美国作家,1963年获美国肯尼迪总统颁予的...
评分我很喜欢纽约,原因是“Breakfast at Tiffany's”和“Sex and the City”。怀特是很有风格和绅士之气的作家,虽然我没见过他,但从他的文笔可以隐约看出他应该是一位有趣、有风度,常常面带善意微笑的老人。他笔下的纽约没有明确的地标,没有对The 5th Street、Empire State Bu...

评分《GQ》“生活-LIFE”专栏 这半年里我喜欢的作家是E.B.怀特,闲来就翻翻他的书信集。他写的多半是在缅因州的农场里与15头羊、112只红母鸡、36只白岩母鸡、3只鹅、一条狗、一只雄猫、一头猪和一只笼鼠共度的日常生活。各种寻常小事他讲得温文尔雅,我读了之后,明白人家是真...
评分读E.B.White <Here is New York>。写得真不错,这是一个能品尝出城市情绪的敏感的人。 纽约,这种文艺青年向往的地方有什么好呢?有很多人。有很多颓废的人。有很多怀旧的人。有很多失败的人。有很多成功的人。也有奸商、学者、技艺非凡,天才出挑的人。大多数人都只会是落寞...
怎么会有写的这么好的英文........
评分第一次发现电子书的不好:不知道有多薄,还以为多便宜......
