John Carey is Merton Professor of English at Oxford University, a distinguished critic, reviewer and broadcaster, and the author of several books, including studies of Donne, Dickens and Thackeray, and most recently, Pure Pleasure: A Guide to the Twentieth Century's Most Enjoyable Books, described, by James Wood in the London Review of Books, as 'likeable, wise and often right . . . one feels an attractive sense of partisanship in Carey's writing, an alliance with the ordinary, the plain spoken, the unlettered, the sympathetic and the humane. Carey writes with an Orwellian attention to decency'. He is a regular critic on BBC2's Newsnight Review. He is also the editor of the best-selling anthologies The Faber Book of Reportage, The Faber Book of Science and The Faber Book of Utopias.
In Pure Pleasure, John Carey, one of Britain's most respected literary critics, introduces us to what he believes are the fifty most enjoyable books of the twentieth century based on sheer reading pleasure. Mixing fiction, nonfiction, and poetry, Carey includes literary heavyweights like James Joyce, Thomas Mann, and T. S. Eliot, as well as more populist writers like Arthur Conan Doyle, Kingsley Amis, and John Updike. Carey also discusses masterpieces like F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby and Gunter Grass's The Tin Drum, alongside lesser-known works like D. H. Lawrence's Twilight in Italy and George Orwell's Coming Up for Air.In a series of intelligent and fast-moving essays -- each devoted to a single book -- Carey mixes criticism, biography, and cultural context about each selection with illuminations on the author's inspiration and how each work was written. The end result is a book that no one who is passionate about reading should be without.
阅读约翰·凯里《阅读的至乐》,很容易联想到其他的书,比如那本由哈罗德·布鲁姆撰写的厚厚的令人望而生畏的《西方正典:伟大的作家和不朽的作品》,除了介绍文学史上著名的作家及其代表作,更在其书后开列了一份长达四十页的经典书目。而约翰·凯里似乎特意为了反其道而行之...
评分“莫名我就喜欢你,深深地爱上你。”每次遇到一本好书,就是这样的感觉。什么是好书,大家都说好,对你个人而言未必就是。让我说的话,让你哭让你笑,能在你心上留下一条印记,就足够了。读一本书,本来是站在局外,静看书中世界,但伴随主人公成长,失落,兴奋喜悦,撕心裂肺...
评分最近一直在思考如何写好一篇书评,介绍一本对方没看过的书,在不怎么剧透的情况下让人了解到这是什么样一本书。如果是本好书,就有让人阅读的兴趣和欲望。如果是一本烂书,也能成功劝告大家远离。同时又希望书评的类型多样,不拘一格,让阅读书评本身也不觉得枯燥。本着这样的...
评分摘自《新浪博客》 作者:海 猫 看了一本好书,《阅读的至乐——20世纪最令人快乐的书》。 作为英国最杰出的批评家之一,约翰•凯里在这本薄薄的小书里说,我们之所以需要读书是因为,书籍与电影、电视相比,具有不完美的缺陷,“电影和电视所传递的图像几乎是完美...
