Diniel Wallace is the author of Big Fish, Ray in Reverse and the Watermelon King. He was born and raised in Birmingham, Alabama, and now lives in North Carolina with his son, Henry, and his wife, Laura.
He could outrun anybody, and he never missed a day of school. Animals loved him. People loved him. Women loved him (and he loved them back). And he knew more jokes than any man alive.
Now, as he lies dying, Edward Bloom can't seem to stop telling jokes - or the tall tales that have made him, in his son's eyes, and extraordinary man. Big Fish is the story of this man's life, told as a series of legends and myths inspired by the few facts his son, William, knows. Through these tales - hilarious and wrenching, tender and outrageous - William begins to understand Edward Bloom's great feats, and his great failings, managing to reckon with the father he's about to lose. And find a way to say goodbye.

I read this book recently and found it rather bizarre and intriguing. This isn’t the type of style I fancy, but the way the author tells the story is very refreshing. The story is about the relationship between father and son. The past and the present are ...
評分在這個世界上,對每個人都公平的一件事就是:你來到這個世界的那一刻,並不孤獨。 記得曾在某個時刻,認真地思考著“孤獨”這件事。是的,無論你擁有多麼完好的傢庭、多麼彼此相依的戀人、多麼重情義的朋友,可人生的無數個時刻,比如病痛,比如分離,比如死亡,你都...
評分電影喜歡很久瞭,也很期待書,分享一篇和菜頭的影評吧———————————— 電影《BIG FISH》被翻譯為《大智若魚》,我於2004年4月8日得到瞭它的D9版,在欣賞完全片以後,我從沙發上站起身來,在我的客廳裏鼓掌,嚮這本片子緻意。 我想我處於一個很好但...
評分 評分在瑞士作傢帕斯卡·梅西的小說《裏斯本夜車》裏,主人公普拉多有一個卡夫卡式的父親,他認為是父親過度的愛以及期待毀瞭他,這樣的父親很有代錶性。那麼,如果他換個父親又會怎麼樣?如果有這麼一個父親,整日和他嘻嘻哈哈、老不正經、沒大沒小,他的人生是否會與原來很不同?...

因為一切都是兒子的轉述和迴憶,所以不管Edward Bloom是怎樣樂觀無憂的一個人,這部書的整體氣氛仍然是兒子對父親的留戀,不捨和憂傷。那些父親曾經經曆的奇聞曆險,其實都是為瞭襯托他在臨死前不住的“我是不是一個稱職的父親”的追問
評分波頓的電影大概是4年前看的,整個過程昏昏欲睡,直到最後父親的葬禮上看到那些故事裏的“巨人”、“巫婆”、“連體姐妹”,像兒子一樣突然理解瞭父親和他的故事。周末花5個小時兩口氣讀完瞭英文版,沒想到竟會被這麼簡單的文字拽著一直讀下去。書裏沒有波頓的夢幻,在平實中有種樸實而浪漫的憂傷:一個愛講故事而且隻講故事的男人一生的故事。"Remembering a man's stories makes him immortal. "與父親一直有隔閡的兒子最終領悟瞭父親用一生的故事想要教給他的事,送走瞭變成大魚的父親。小說是關於父親的故事,而電影改編的巧妙在於把書裏隱含的不可靠敘述者“我”拉進瞭現實的可靠敘述層麵,實的更實,虛的更虛,成為一個關於故事的故事。(影視短評的限定字數為什麼少那麼多……)
評分"The story is simple, the meaning is not.“
