Here is New York

Elwyn Brooks White was a leading American essayist, author, humorist, poet and literary stylist and author of such beloved children's classics as Charlotte's Web, Stuart Little, and The Trumpet of the Swan. He graduated from Cornell University in 1921 and, five or six years later, joined the staff of The New Yorker magazine. He authored over seventeen books of prose and poetry and was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Letters in 1973.Funnily enough for such a famous writer, he always said that he found writing difficult and bad for one's disposition but he kept at it!Mr. White has won countless awards, including the 1971 National Medal for Literature and the Laura Ingalls Wilder Medal, which commended him for making “a substantial and lasting contribution to literature for children.”

Perceptive, funny, and nostalgic, E.B. White's stroll around Manhattan remains the quintessential love letter to the city, written by one of America's foremost literary figures. The New York Times has named Here is New York one of the ten best books ever written about the metropolis, and The New Yorker calls it "the wittiest essay, and one of the most perceptive, ever done on the city.

E.B. White's underground classic, and one of the most beautifully written, accurate portrayals of the world's most diverse and interesting city.

读后感

我很喜欢纽约，原因是“Breakfast at Tiffany's”和“Sex and the City”。怀特是很有风格和绅士之气的作家，虽然我没见过他，但从他的文笔可以隐约看出他应该是一位有趣、有风度，常常面带善意微笑的老人。他笔下的纽约没有明确的地标，没有对The 5th Street、Empire State Bu...

读E.B.White <Here is New York>。写得真不错，这是一个能品尝出城市情绪的敏感的人。 纽约，这种文艺青年向往的地方有什么好呢？有很多人。有很多颓废的人。有很多怀旧的人。有很多失败的人。有很多成功的人。也有奸商、学者、技艺非凡，天才出挑的人。大多数人都只会是落寞...  

“有谁指望孤独或者私密，纽约将赐予他这类古怪的奖赏”。E•B•怀特在《这就是纽约》的开头这样写到。现在，如果把句子中“纽约”替换成“北京”，这句话也将继续表现出它的合理性。事实上，《这就是纽约》会让所有生活在大城市的人感同身受。读罢此文，我脑海中出...  

门口有一只蜘蛛，老是喜欢在那里织网。可是我怨他织错了地方，毁掉它的网，因为他挡了我的门口，阻扰我的进出。但蜘蛛却不屈不挠，一而再再而三的织它的网，但最终都毁在我手里。作为人，我为了自己无烦扰，只能举起扫帚；作为蜘蛛，我觉得值得敬佩。因为网是蜘蛛的一切。 今...  

随笔这种文体，按作者自己所说，确实只能算是二等文学艺术。是呀！虽然我们都很喜爱读随笔，但要是我们买起藏书来，总是喜欢小说、哲学、社会学等等。很难得清一色的随笔。这种文体只适合在一个悠闲或者无聊的午后，拿起来了读一读，打发点时间或者消磨一下心情。好吧。我是出...  

用户评价

!!!

很多地方半个世纪后读起来还是觉得非常贴切，但是文艺界涉及到的好多人我都没看太懂。这个城市真的还有太多值得淘值得理解的东西。I heart NY。

写得像诗又像歌词 虽然我本人不喜欢ny 但看完可以清楚感觉到并有点理解作者对城市的热爱

写得太美 一封献给纽约的迷人情书

White真的是會寫 也無愧於一個有情懷的作家 一番文字盡顯心意 。紐約 不免想望一個世界之都的模樣。BTW 讀散文 詞彙量不足真是硬傷啊……
