"I come from Des Moines. Somebody had to."
And, as soon as Bill Bryson was old enough, he left. Des Moines couldn't hold him, but it did lure him back. After ten years in England he returned to the land of his youth, and drove almost 14,000 miles in search of a mythical small town called Amalgam, the kind of smiling village where the movies from his youth were set. Instead he drove through a series of horrific burgs, which he renamed Smellville, Fartville, Coleslaw, Coma, and Doldrum. At best his search led him to Anywhere, USA, a lookalike strip of gas stations, motels and hamburger outlets populated by obese and slow-witted hicks with a partiality for synthetic fibres. He discovered a continent that was doubly lost: lost to itself because he found it blighted by greed, pollution, mobile homes and television; lost to him because he had become a foreigner in his own country.
基本上还原了他当年走的路线,按照书中描写的城镇。 有些地方谷歌自己生成的路线实在无法改,比如他提到有一段景观公路开上去还是gravel road。在地图上无论我怎么拖动路线都改不了。 而且谷歌一段路线的最多节点是固定的,所以只好分了五段,三段是东部的,两段是西部的。 ...

評分看过杰克凯鲁亚克的《在路上》之后可以看看比尔•布莱森的“在路上”,比尔•布莱森(1951-)被称为最幽默的旅游文学作家,他之于旅游文学就像日本导演宫崎骏之于动漫界,不仅因为他们都有漂亮的大胡子,而且都在全球拥有无可撼动的业界核心地位。他们出现之前,业界混沌...
評分上课断断续续读完了《失落的大陆》。我人在教室,心儿却跟着比尔.布莱森飞啊,飞啊,飞到美国去了。这比什么《红楼梦》的家谱有意思多了。 各种热情奔放的餐馆服务员,以及各种对着游客垂涎欲滴的旅游景点,还有那燥热的无尽公路,富有特色的城镇名称和当地口音,不怀好意的天...
