簡短卻很有力。
評分簡短卻很有力。
評分2016年第55本 小時候一丁點兒小事兒都覺得天塌下來瞭,朋友背叛更是無法想象,總覺得大傢會一直一直在一起,特彆是August年少失去母親,陷入迴憶中始終拒絕母親已去世的真相,把朋友看得無比重要,成長過程中大傢最終走散,但情感創傷還在。
評分2017讀的第一本書,沒想到一天不到就讀完瞭。Woodson的文筆簡潔流暢,讀的時候就像聽著August有意無意地說著自己的故事。This is memory. Memories about a lost family member, friends, love, femininity, self-growth, religion, self-awakening.
評分Beautiful poetry and prose style of writing.
I used to say I’d be a teacher or a lawyer or a hairdresser when I grew up but even as I said these things, I knew what made me happiest was writing.
I wrote on everything and everywhere. I remember my uncle catching me writing my name in graffiti on the side of a building. (It was not pretty for me when my mother found out.) I wrote on paper bags and my shoes and denim binders. I chalked stories across sidewalks and penciled tiny tales in notebook margins. I loved and still love watching words flower into sentences and sentences blossom into stories.
I also told a lot of stories as a child. Not “Once upon a time” stories but basically, outright lies. I loved lying and getting away with it! There was something about telling the lie-story and seeing your friends’ eyes grow wide with wonder. Of course I got in trouble for lying but I didn’t stop until fifth grade.
That year, I wrote a story and my teacher said “This is really good.” Before that I had written a poem about Martin Luther King that was, I guess, so good no one believed I wrote it. After lots of brouhaha, it was believed finally that I had indeed penned the poem which went on to win me a Scrabble game and local acclaim. So by the time the story rolled around and the words “This is really good” came out of the otherwise down-turned lips of my fifth grade teacher, I was well on my way to understanding that a lie on the page was a whole different animal — one that won you prizes and got surly teachers to smile. A lie on the page meant lots of independent time to create your stories and the freedom to sit hunched over the pages of your notebook without people thinking you were strange.
Lots and lots of books later, I am still surprised when I walk into a bookstore and see my name on a book’s binder. Sometimes, when I’m sitting at my desk for long hours and nothing’s coming to me, I remember my fifth grade teacher, the way her eyes lit up when she said “This is really good.” The way, I — the skinny girl in the back of the classroom who was always getting into trouble for talking or missed homework assignments — sat up a little straighter, folded my hands on the desks, smiled and began to believe in me.
Running into a long-ago friend sets memories from the 1970s in motion for August, transporting her to a time and a place where friendship was everything—until it wasn’t. For August and her girls, sharing confidences as they ambled through neighborhood streets, Brooklyn was a place where they believed that they were beautiful, talented, brilliant—a part of a future that belonged to them.
But beneath the hopeful veneer, there was another Brooklyn, a dangerous place where grown men reached for innocent girls in dark hallways, where ghosts haunted the night, where mothers disappeared. A world where madness was just a sunset away and fathers found hope in religion.
《另个一布鲁克林》,这是一本很小很小的小说。书小,字数也少,一会儿的功夫就能读完。但读完之后,回荡在脑海之中的是久久不肯离去的有关故乡、亲情、友情以及成长的哀伤。 想着布鲁克林的故事,然后,很容易就会想到自己。 作者是美国作家杰圭琳·伍德森,目前她和家人便生...
評分亲爱的朋友,你现在过得好吗?当微风轻轻拂过面颊时,你是否还会忆起过往的时光?当夜空的星星在高远的苍穹闪耀时,你是否还能想到昔日的玩伴?当拖着一身疲惫终于从城市的密网中回缩到居所时,你是否曾不止一次地望见父母和故乡? 不论从何时起,只要一个人真正地长大,那他必...
評分这是一本字数并不算多的书,如果你看书的速度足够快,不到一个上午足以将其看完。书的名字叫做《另一个布鲁克林》。 关于布鲁克林这个词的印象,是来自于童年时所看的一个故事。在那个故事中,我第一次知道了这个地方,似乎那里是有色人种的聚集地,相对来说绝不是一个高大上的...
評分奥古斯特出生在八月的第一天。 夏天这时已近尾声,走到了最后一个时段,余下的温度与热量将在余日里挥霍殆尽。随后,炎炎酷暑在记忆里逐渐褪色,伴随着秋天里的沉静克制而缓慢沉淀。 沉淀下来。 落在记忆的最深处。 然后被遗忘刷上一层薄薄的灰。 等到偶然一个瞬间,再度拾起,...
