具体描述
Anne Fadiman is--by her own admission--the sort of person who learned about sex from her father's copy of "Fanny Hill," whose husband buys her 19 pounds of dusty books for her birthday, and who once found herself poring over her roommate's 1974 Toyota Corolla manual because it was the only written material in the apartment that she had not read at least twice. This witty collection of essays recounts a lifelong love affair with books and language. For Fadiman, as for many passionate readers, the books she loves have become chapters in her own life story. Writing with remarkable grace, she revives the tradition of the well-crafted personal essay, moving easily from anecdotes about Coleridge and Orwell to tales of her own pathologically literary family. As someone who played at blocks with her father's 22-volume set of Trollope ("My Ancestral Castles") and who only really considered herself married when she and her husband had merged collections ("Marrying Libraries"), she is exquisitely well equipped to expand upon the art of inscriptions, the perverse pleasures of compulsive proof-reading, the allure of long words, and the satisfactions of reading out loud. There is even a foray into pure literary gluttony--Charles Lamb liked buttered muffin crumbs between the leaves, and Fadiman knows of more than one reader who literally consumes page corners. Perfectly balanced between humor and erudition, "Ex Libris" establishes Fadiman as one of our finest contemporary essayists.

我穿了件我最喜欢的米色毛衣，上一次穿过后就用金纺浸泡，它还残留着淡淡的香味，是我熟悉的。随手翻着美国当代最优秀的随笔散文作家安妮·法迪曼的《书趣——一个普通读者的自白》，九点就着白开水吃完了整袋（6只）椰球豆沙小面包，狼吞虎咽的，总是没饱。 书的纸张有些粗糙...

评分可能是因为自己是从业于滑雪攀岩登山设备运动公司的原因，我喜欢书的《我的特别书架》这一章节。威尔逊的日记很打动我，恰好2012年7月9日，严冬冬先生因为山难离开，想到此章节更是潸然泪下。我把喜欢的这一章节，工工整整抄在了笔记本上，值得记下并铭记。
评分这本书我最早看的是繁体，简体出版我已经等了好多年了。 那时我还在上大学。我清楚的记得，对这本书的热爱让我在一个暑假跑到国图不外借的图书室里，一字一句的想要将它敲出来——影印每张要2块钱。 当然这和我所有的兴趣爱好一样，在持续了不到3章后就放弃了。 这么多年后...
评分文笔不错的一本小书，只给了三星，给分这么低，是因为我对里面写的小故事们不是很感兴趣，或者说不是很有共鸣。为什么会如此呢？明明作者文笔挺好、说的又是我感兴趣的读书这件事。 纠结两天才想清楚，正如前言里作者说的，普通人读书是为了乐趣，想从碰到的各种零零碎碎中为自...

评分The book starts with this: When the Irish novelist John Mcgahern was a child, his sisters unlaced and removed one of his shoes while he was reading. He did not stir. They placed a straw hat on his head. No response. Only when they took away the wooden chair on which he was sitting did he, as he puts it, "wake out of the book." I was such a child -- and I was such a child.
