Winner of the 2002 Man Booker Prize for Fiction
Yann Martel, the son of diplomats, was born in Spain in 1963. He grew up in Costa Rica, France, Mexico, Alaska, and Canada and as an adult has spent time in Iran, Turkey, and India. After studying philosophy in college, he worked at various odd jobs until he began earning his living as a writer at the age of twenty-seven. He lives in Montreal.
From the mailbox of the Prime Minister's Office to your bookshelf, a list of more than 100 books that every Canadian should read. This largely one-sided correspondence from the "loneliest book club in the world" is a compendium for bibliophiles and those who follow the Canadian political scene. Smart, subversive, signed, sealed, and now available to you...even if your address is not 80 Wellington Street.

評分朋友那裏拿來的書,本來隻想著順著目錄標記一下reading list,沒想到我斷斷續續,花瞭我三天時間看完。非常不錯的一本書。 要說所有接觸的藝術載體,繪畫,攝影,文學,電影,音樂。我最熟悉的就是後兩種,已經是狂人狀態。研究分鏡,樂章,知道什麼是更新的鏡頭語言,音樂混...
評分 評分知道這本書是從“不止讀書”的公眾號,在此應該感謝魏小河一直以來為大傢薦書和宣傳獨立書店。 最開始被吸引,是被這個給總理堅持寫信推薦文學作品的形式所吸引,說實話,我在讀這本書之前以為他們彼此是有交流的,來而不往非禮也嘛! 讀瞭幾篇發現,大部分時間裏本書都是揚一...
