纪实?虚构?游记?人类学田野报告?都像是又都不确切。这本书太难归类啦。 愈疗?流浪?远方?邂逅?陌生?心血来潮?幼年心结?这本书的关键词太多啦。 不过,只用一个词汇形容的话,一准是“过目难忘”。
评分One of the best travel book I have ever read, if you are the one who is wondering around, put your motherland in your heart, this book is for you.
评分逼着自己啃了下来。 最开始被各种繁复的人名、地名、没有清晰标题的数字章节给绕得精疲力竭,三度放下,几乎要放弃。 但是在坚持下,意外地发现了好多惊喜。 比如巴塔哥尼亚高原名字的来历, 比如,英旺达的制作过程, 比如,用吸羊屁股的方式治疗羊藓的传说…… 这里面充斥着...
评分虽然没有看过译本,但我觉得无论翻成什么样都不能怪译者,这书本身就很怪,无论是小说读者、纪实文学读者还是游记读者都无法在这本书里找到他们熟悉的配方,所以看起来觉得难受也很正常。 觉得水土不服的首先是他的用词,古生物学地质学之类的专用名词也就算了毕竟无法避免,但...

In Patagonia is Bruce Chatwin's exquisite account of his journey through "the uttermost part of the earth," that stretch of land at the southern tip of South America, where bandits were once made welcome and Charles Darwin formed part of his "survival of the fittest" theory. Chatwin's evocative descriptions, notes on the odd history of the region, and enchanting anecdotes make In Patagonia an exhilarating look at a place that still retains the exotic mystery of a far-off, unseen land. An instant classic upon publication in 1977, In Patagonia remains a masterwork of literature.
读着读着,觉得英语是不可能自诩通达了,能写好议论文足矣。The author walked such a tightrope between affectation and sublime......这书一多半就是靠文风了,诸多神来之笔,极不适合翻译。
评分An impressionistic portrait of a bleak land, and wanderers, murderers, indians, revolutionists, and castaways who were there. For the author was spiritually one of them. The book is full of references, i may need to read it again.
