一本非常文艺,非常素淡的书
评分英文看得还蛮吃力的,关键其实蛮枯燥的,十年如一日观察同一种鸟。适合鸟类爱好者。中译本好评如潮是因为翻译好,有诗意的享受。但英文只有偶尔的迷离、与隼的对峙比较有意思,绝大部分都只是语言科学般的精确。对了,对照鸟书的英文索引看还不错,游隼猎物一览!哈哈哈。
评分听完有声书,比想象中要残酷一些(不乏血腥场面的描写)| 非常有共鸣的一本书,也想像Baker观察游隼那样从观察一棵树到成为一棵树
评分无法用语言表达我对这文字对痴。

John A. Baker lives with his wife in Essex. He has had assorted jobs, including chopping down trees and pushing book trolleys in the British Museum. In 1965 he gave up work and lived on the money he had saved, devoting all his time to his obsession - the peregrine. He re-wrote his account of this bird five times before submitting it for publication. Although he had no ornithological training and had never written a book before, when The Peregrine was published in 1967 it was received with enthusiastic reviews and praise for his lyrical prose. Later that year he was awarded the distinguished Duff Cooper prize. He was also awarded a substantial Arts Council grant. His second book, The Hill of Summer, was published in 1969 and was also received with unanimous praise by the critics.
From fall to spring, J.A. Baker set out to track the daily comings and goings of a pair of peregrine falcons across the flat fen lands of eastern England. He followed the birds obsessively, observing them in the air and on the ground, in pursuit of their prey, making a kill, eating, and at rest, activities he describes with an extraordinary fusion of precision and poetry. And as he continued his mysterious private quest, his sense of human self slowly dissolved, to be replaced with the alien and implacable consciousness of a hawk.
It is this extraordinary metamorphosis, magical and terrifying, that these beautifully written pages record.

评分 评分距离游隼最近的一次,是在旅顺的某处内湾,或者称之为内海会更准确。此为咸淡水交汇之所,涨潮时海水涌入湾内,鸥鹭逐潮而来,翔集栖止。单凭回忆,我无法复原出完整的场景,只记得湾内有人工建造的堤坝,在正午时分反射出白垩色的光,令人厌倦、瞌睡。 正在观察如白卵石堆一般...
评分初读《游隼》,是在去年十一月。那时正值一段痛苦经历的开端,而我觉察到悲伤。某一个周日下午,我一个人在寝室,难受得喘不过气来。第二天,我读到《游隼》里的句子,诗性,敏锐,而基调带着无端的悲伤。那种感觉瞬间抓住了我。 我一直渴望成为外在世界的一部分,到最外面去,...
