The Peregrine

The Peregrine pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2025

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.

前几日生病,空出大段时间。 于是躺在床上把《游隼》又翻了一遍。 真是好。虽然是第一百次感叹。 对于看了太多遍的《游隼》,我几次想提笔讲它,临纸却忐忑了,因为我始终怀有一种隐忧,担心自己最高的赞誉,不过是一个人与一种精神间自私的共鸣。 “我一直渴望成为外在世界的...

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...

J.A.贝克的《游隼》被归类为自然文学,但读过就知道它不止于此。自然辽阔,万物有灵有时是人尽皆知的秘密,时常被忽略。忠实的陪伴与分担者,将眼光黏附在高贵的飞行的灵魂之上,用时间和文字去描述那些城市里看不到的细节。 对读者来说,他那些克制、欲言又止的寂静叙述,不仅...

非常遗憾不是一部纪录片

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
