记得小时候觉得那段关于荆棘鸟的文字很玄,所以盲目崇拜。 长大一些才渐渐品出那个传说所背负的命运和情感。 每次看到书架上土黄色的书脊,都感觉置身那个黄色的澳洲内陆地带,感觉自己和梅吉一起顶着卷有飞沙的干燥的风坚决的行走…… 书中的人物没有严格意义上的正反角色之...
评分初中看的这本书,算来好多年前了。 开始看,是因为扉页中这段话:“世界上有一种鸟,一生只歌唱一次,一但它离剿去找荆棘树就要找到才肯罢休。它把自己钉在最尖最长的荆棘上,一次铯唱竟以生命为代价。它的歌声胜过百灵和夜莺,就连天堂里的上帝也摒吸聆听”。 看到后来被那个...
评分最近想入手一本1983年漓江出版社出版,由晓明、陈明锦译,李小棠校的《荆棘鸟》,一是因为这是最早的中译本;二是因为该书市面上已经见不到了(猜想是因为没有买下该书版权的缘故),三是看评价,不少人都觉得翻译得不错,甚至被认为是最好的译本。我先下载了电子版的看了看,...

A phenomenal worldwide bestseller since 1977 THE THORN BIRDS is a robust, romantic saga of three generations. It begins in the early years of this century when Paddy Cleary moves his wife and seven children to Drogheda, an Australian sheep station, owned by his autocratic and childless older sister. For more than half a century we follow their fates, particularly those of Meggie, the only Cleary daughter, and the one man she truly loves, Ralph de Bricassart - stunningly handsome, ambitious, and a priest. As background to the Cleary family's lives there is the land itself: relentless in its demands, brilliant in its flowering.
THE THORN BIRDS is a book that enfolds the reader in its capacious arms.
The story begins in 1915 when Paddy Cleary moves his wife and seven children to an Australian sheep station. It ends after World War II when the only survivor of the third generation sets a course of life and love halfway round the world from her roots.
Colleen McCullough was born in Wellington, New South Wales, working in hospitals in Sydney and London before moving to the Yale University Medical School to train as a nurse. There she wrote the phenomenal bestseller THE THORN BIRDS.
