Sideways is the story of two friends-Miles and Jack-going away together for the last time to steep themselves in everything that makes it good to be young and single: pinot, putting, and prowling bars. In the week before Jack plans to marry, the pair heads out from Los Angeles to the Santa Ynez wine country. For Jack, the tasting tour is Seven Days to D-Day, his final stretch of freedom. For Miles--who has divorced his wife, is facing an uncertain career and has lost his passion for living-the trip is a weeklong opportunity to evaluate his past, his future and himself.
A raucous and surprising novel filled with wonderful details about wine, Sideways is also a thought-provoking and funny book about men, women, and human relationships.

评分美国的中年人活得跟我们的年轻人似的,真任性啊!
评分九月上班就读完的第一本书
评分书写的很好,看的过程中真的好想回美国roadtrip,尤其是在Cali,好遗憾没在那边待一段时间。书里的人物除了Maya笔墨少了一些,其他人层次都要丰富不少,比如看Sideways电影版的时候Miles总是会Panic Attack,其中有几次略显突兀,但是在书里可以比较详细的读到他的内心活动,所以也能更理解他的爆发。遗憾的是小说版缺少几个电影里神来之笔的桥段,比如Maya和Miles在借红酒聊人生,还有Miles在快餐店就着汉堡薯条打开拿瓶61年的白马…这两处是我最喜欢的片段,本来很期待能在书里看到。但是总体而言还是很好看,喜欢电影的话值得一读。作者还出过两本续作,期待以后roadtrip时带过去。
