On a May afternoon in 1943, an Army Air Forces bomber crashed into the Pacific Ocean and disappeared, leaving only a spray of debris and a slick of oil, gasoline, and blood.
Then, on the ocean surface, a face appeared. It was that of a young lieutenant, the plane's bombardier, who was struggling to a life raft and pulling himself aboard. So began one of the most extraordinary odysseys of the Second World War.
The lieutenant's name was Louis Zamperini. In boyhood, he'd been a cunning and incorrigible delinquent, breaking into houses, brawling, and fleeing his home to ride the rails. As a teenager, he had channeled his defiance into running, discovering a prodigious talent that had carried him to the Berlin Olympics and within sight of the four-minute mile. But when war had come, the athlete had become an airman, embarking on a journey that led to his doomed flight, a tiny raft, and a drift into the unknown.
Ahead of Zamperini lay thousands of miles of open ocean, leaping sharks, a foundering raft, thirst and starvation, enemy aircraft, and, beyond, a trial even greater. Driven to the limits of endurance, Zamperini would answer desperation with ingenuity; suffering with hope, resolve, and humor; brutality with rebellion. His fate, whether triumph or tragedy, would be suspended on the fraying wire of his will.
In her long-awaited new book, Laura Hillenbrand writes with the same rich and vivid narrative voice she displayed in Seabiscuit. Telling an unforgettable story of a man's journey into extremity, Unbroken is a testament to the resilience of the human mind, body, and spirit.
每次读书都在很长的waiting list上面精挑细选,上榜的都是精品,再反复pk,配合当时的心境和情绪,用有限的阅读时间里榨取最大的养分。这么做的好处是选中的都是经典中的经典,当然也有坏处,就是往往期望值过高,而现实无法企及。 Unbroken就是这样,两周前带着九十多分的期...

评分《坚不可摧》是我国庆长假读的比较完整的一本书,初次拿到这本书时,封面上的一个关于生存、抗争和救赎的二战故事,一语中的。 书中第一部分从主人公赞贝里尼的叛逆的少年,到后来在哥哥皮特的指引下跑步,他有着跑步的天赋,曾经在一英里赛中打破了第一次世界大战的记录...
很早开始看,前两天集中看完了。非常好。
评分怎么到现在才发现这么喜欢、这么和我胃口的一本书!以及,读完才发现以及有了中文版。。。
评分impossible is possible.
评分宗教意味太浓
评分挺喜欢作者的文笔,简洁得不得了。相比之下,同时在读的walden就是截然相反的风格。不过就是觉得书写得太细致太厚了,还有最后好人宽恕坏人,世界和平还是有点俗套。这本书里提到当时在日本的战俘营的生活,显示在日本的战俘的待遇要比在欧洲的差一万倍,小日本真是不是人,是禽兽啊。
