An atmospheric, gritty, and compelling novel of star-crossed lovers, set in the circus world circa 1932, by the bestselling author of Riding Lessons .

When Jacob Jankowski, recently orphaned and suddenly adrift, jumps onto a passing train, he enters a world of freaks, drifters, and misfits, a second-rate circus struggling to survive during the Great Depression, making one-night stands in town after endless town. A veterinary student who almost earned his degree, Jacob is put in charge of caring for the circus menagerie. It is there that he meets Marlena, the beautiful young star of the equestrian act, who is married to August, the charismatic but twisted animal trainer. He also meets Rosie, an elephant who seems untrainable until he discovers a way to reach her.

Beautifully written, Water for Elephants is illuminated by a wonderful sense of time and place. It tells a story of a love between two people that overcomes incredible odds in a world in which even love is a luxury that few can afford.

我向来都比较相信那些书籍的宣传。这本《大象的眼泪》也不例外。 能够被我买下全靠它华丽的宣传,“一印再印”、“洛阳纸贵”等字词迷惑了我的双眼,保鲜膜的包裹下也让我失去了知情权。 书读到一半,别说大象了,象毛我都没见一根。读完全书我才明白,什么写作灵感,什么仇...

记得课上老师说the “water” in the title is actually the “hope” 整本书在两个时间线里穿插 整个故事很丰富 人与人之间的关系及其变化 阶级之间的冲突 还有男女主人公和大象Rosie之间的感情 有很多细节都是让我动容的……除了发生在过去的精彩故事 年迈的Jacob对于马戏团古怪的偏执也很让人印象深刻
