In 1942, a dashing young man who liked nothing so much as a heated game of poker, a good bottle of scotch, and the company of a pretty girl hopped a merchant ship to England. He was Robert Capa, the brilliant and daring photojournalist, and Collier's magazine had put him on assignment to photograph the war raging in Europe. In these pages, Capa recounts his terrifying journey through the darkest battles of World War II and shares his memories of the men and women of the Allied forces who befriended, amused, and captivated him along the way. His photographs are masterpieces -- John G. Morris, Magnum Photos' first executive editor, called Capa "the century's greatest battlefield photographer" -- and his writing is by turns riotously funny and deeply moving.
From Sicily to London, Normandy to Algiers, Capa experienced some of the most trying conditions imaginable, yet his compassion and wit shine on every page of this book. Charming and profound, Slightly Out of Focus is a marvelous memoir told in words and pictures by an extraordinary man.

评分单最后一页 以为是出自一个一篇有始无终的爱情小说的结尾;却没想到来自世界上最著名war photojournalist 的著作。看书之前我以为这会是一本荡气回肠 刀光血影的小说:或许有煽情的文字;大量描写战争残酷的话语;作者在在枪林弹雨中对人生的感悟 对今生的回顾 对生活的向往 等。但是读的过程中觉得作者是一枚柔情的逗逼。并且我对二战的了解没有增长多少 反而记得是Pink, 酒精,party,干爹海明威,永远的护照问题;跳伞;在各种交通工具上追赶war zone 等偏离主题的场景。有几个片段印象深刻 第一是children’s funeral; 在诺曼底他回到船上因为害怕;年轻人在他身边死去;这些记录又体现出他逗逼于敏感共存的特质,以及他的真诚坦率。不知他是如何用轻描淡写的方式写的这本书?
评分象童年时代的床头故事一样的精彩。我怀疑爸爸的故事是从这里看来的。卡帕,始终是我心爱的一个人。
评分出乎意料的精彩 幽默是对抗绝望的良方 诙谐之下是细思极恐的残酷
