“活着,奋斗着,爱着我们的生活,爱着生活馈赠的一切悲欢,那就是,一种实现。生活的充实常在,人人皆可获得。”
贝蒂·史密斯(1896—1972),德国移民的女儿,成长于纽约布鲁克林的威廉斯堡。她的经历与这部小说主人公弗兰西相似,早年也是靠自学完成了初步的知识积累。后来她进入大学学习新闻、戏剧、写作和文学。《布鲁克林有棵树》是其最主要作品,曾被改编为电影、电视、音乐剧等多种形式,并曾获得过奥斯卡奖。她还是一位剧作家,一生写过多部独幕剧和完整的长篇戏剧,曾获洛克菲勒基金会和戏剧家协会基金会资助。
A moving coming-of-age story set in the 1900's, A Tree Grows in Brooklyn follows the lives of 11-year-old Francie Nolan, her younger brother Neely, and their parents, Irish immigrants who have settled in the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn. Johnny Nolan is as loving and fanciful as they come, but he is also often drunk and out of work, unable to find his place in the land of opportunity. His wife Katie scrubs floors to put food on the table and clothes on her childrens' backs, instilling in them the values of being practical and planning ahead. When Johnny dies, leaving Katie pregnant, Francie, smart, pensive and hoping for something better, cannot believe that life can carry on as before. But with her own determination, and that of her mother behind her, Francie is able to move toward the future of her dreams, completing her education and heading oft to college, always carrying the beloved Brooklyn of her childhood in her heart.
这是一本有关童年、成长、苦难和教育的书,更是一本有关信念,甚至是信仰的书。掩卷,一个问题在脑海中回荡:是什么让弗兰西有种超出年龄的智慧?这种智慧面对苦难能够豁达,面对贫困能够淡然,面对辍学能够坚持。我觉得,一个重要的原因是阅读。一字不识的外祖母让孩子...
评分“是的,等我长大了,有了自己房子,我不要豪华椅子,不要花边窗帘,也不要室内橡胶树。我只要这样的书桌,放在客厅里,还有白墙壁。每个星期六有一张干净的绿色吸墨纸,一排闪亮的黄色铅笔,削好放在那里随时派上用场。还要金褐色的碗,里头总放着一朵花,或是一些叶子,...
评分《布鲁克林有棵树》,1943年初版便大受欢迎,长驻畅销书排行榜榜首,改编电影后获奥斯卡奖,改编为音乐剧,上演267场。时隔60多年,到了2008年,又被美国公共广播电台推荐,还当选为亚马逊网站的最佳读物之一。一本“过时”的小说为什么会再度红了起来?原来是经济衰退,山...
评分这算是最近看的最久的一本书了,而对于这样的小说看了这么长的时间就大的毛病就是常常会看了后面忘了前面。而我在前半部分几乎都是迷迷糊糊翻页码而已。即便是不断的看书的简介也没有找到什么遗失的记忆。而当读到弗兰西十四岁开始在上学和工作之间徘徊时,我好似醍醐灌...
