Book Description
Presents a story of the charismatic Chris Gardner - a once homeless father who raised and cared for his son on the mean streets of San Francisco and went on to become a crown prince of Wall Street. At the age of twenty, Milwaukee native Chris Gardner, just out of the Navy, arrived in San Francisco to pursue a promising career in medicine.
Soon to be a major motion picture starring Will Smith, "The Pursuit of Happyness" is the inspiring, rags-to-riches story of the charismatic Chris Gardner - a once homeless father who raised and cared for his son on the mean streets of San Francisco and went on to become a crown prince of Wall Street. At the age of twenty, Milwaukee native Chris Gardner, just out of the Navy, arrived in San Francisco to pursue a promising career in medicine. Considered a prodigy in scientific research, he surprised everyone and himself by setting his sights on the competitive world of high finance. Yet no sooner had he landed an entry level position at a prestigious firm, Gardner found himself caught in a web of incredibly challenging circumstances that left him homeless with his toddler son. Instead of giving in to despair, the two spent almost a year moving from shelters, "HO-tels", and soup-lines, even sleeping in the public restroom of a subway station - ultimately making an astonishing transformation from the bathroom to the boardroom.

评分2007年威尔•史密斯主演的电影《当幸福来敲门》荣获美国青少年观众票选大奖,这部关于父子之情的励志故事曾经感动了不少人。这个故事主角的原型,是美国著名的黑人投资专家克里斯•加德纳,也就是这本书的作者,所以这其实是一部自传。但是与其他成功人士的传记不同,加德...
评分Chris Gardner:You got a dream, you gotta protect it. 克里斯·加德纳:如果你有梦想,就要捍卫它。 Chris Gardner:People can't do something by themselves,they wanna tell you you can not do it. 克里斯·加德纳:当人们做不到一些事情的时候,他们就会对...
评分其实写标题的时候,我不想用这个名字,有点落入俗套的感觉。不过,思前想后,还是认为这个名字还是很经典的! 《当幸福来敲门》这本是美国作家加德纳写的经典之作,影响了无数的人,为了自己哪怕最卑微的梦想而不懈努力!其实,我最开始的时候,是从一个哥们那问的。当时,...

其实我最喜欢的是他们俩流浪那部分……
评分电影只选取了作者的一小段历程,而且电影作了很大改动,与书关联很小。此书作者从幼年开始回忆,家暴继父和同母异父姐妹,漫无目地成长和自我学习。母亲对作者的正面影响较大,一个贫民区黑人从一无所有到走向成功的确很励志。还有,作者与前任复合了还生了一个女儿,惊喜吗?
评分没看出什么情怀和真理,不懂为何上了#1 New York Times Bestseller
评分《In Pursuit of Happyness》是我最喜欢的电影,看了书才发现,电影只是截取了书的一小部分改编的。 书里用了大量的篇幅描写了作者童年青少年及成年初期的生活经历,作者很诚实,描写了自己很多混乱的,做错事的经历。这给了我很深的思考,任何事情真的都有两面性,如果能正确的对待痛苦和错误,那么它们也可是是你成长的driving force。 另外,Chris的妈妈的教育起到了很大的作用,给Chris树立了相信自己的信念。在Chris怀疑一切时,给了Chris答案。并且,Chris真的是一个good Papa!
评分断断续续两个月终于把这本书读完了,同名电影是自己最喜欢的电影之一,但看了书才发现两者基本没什么关联性。主人公的经历令人唏嘘不已,不断的追逐幸福从未放弃。也算是自己第一本完整读完的原版小说了,值得推荐!
