评分他推荐的一些书不见得有名气但可能是很有意思的好书。每本书的书评短短的两页,简洁而切中要害。
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.
“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...
评分在家无聊听广播,主播推荐的,后来买了一本,很不错,介绍了很多有意思的书,好多都没有中文的,就当读了个迷你版了 哈哈
评分凯里的智慧点评也体现作品和在他本人脑中的构建,涌现出对含混、矛盾、融合、个体与其造物者的依存等等大量的深刻的人性见解,我也看到了他推崇理性是美的破坏者、人性的魅力乃至梦想的魅力都在于,你去忽略不完美、毫无怀疑地去爱它,多么豁达而丰富的世界,愿每个人都如凯里...
