二十世纪美国最杰出的作家之一,以诗人和梦想家的气质为“爵士时代”吟唱华丽挽歌。短短四十四年的人生,他的遭际几经跌宕起伏,在名利场中看尽世态炎凉。二十世纪末,美国学术界权威在百年英语长河中选出一百部最优秀的小说,凝聚了菲茨杰拉德才华横溢的两部长篇小说《了不起的盖茨比》和《夜色温柔》均榜上有名,前者更高居第二位。
This Side of Paradise is the book that established F. Scott Fitzgerald as the prophet and golden boy of the newly dawned Jazz Age. Published in 1920, when he was just twenty-three, the novel catapulted him to instant fame and financial success. The story of Amory Blaine, a privileged, aimless, and self-absorbed Princeton student, This Side of Paradise closely reflects Fitzgerald's own experiences as an undergraduate. Amory Blaine's journey from prep school to college to the First World War is an account of "the lost generation." The young "romantic egotist" symbolizes what Fitzgerald so memorably described as "a new generation grown up to find all Gods dead, all wars fought, all faiths in man shaken." A pastiche of literary styles, this dazzling chronicle of youth remains bitingly relevant decades later.
" This Side of Paradise commits almost every sin that a novel can possibly commit," wrote Edmund Wilson. "But it does not commit the unpardonable sin: it does not fail to live. The whole preposterous farrago is animated with life."

评分看到第78页,实在是看不下去了。目录就有一个很低级的错误“一九一九年二月”印成了“九一九年二月”,不过这个并不影响阅读倒也罢了。 第67页最后一段,“二月里雨雪不断,刮龙卷风似的一年级生学年中期考试结束了”,读起来太别扭了。 第78页:所有的三角俱乐部剧目,开始写...
评分“Reform won’t catch up to the needs of civilization unless it’s made to. A laissez-faire policy is like spoiling a child by saying he’ll turn out all right in the end. He will - if he’s made to.” The undeniable befuddlement in the Jazz Age gets transf...
评分大学的时候读过菲茨杰拉德的《美丽与毁灭》,书中都是讽刺,那时的我没见过满纸都是讽刺的书,惊为奇书,惊为最好看的小说。《人间天堂》也是,到处都是讽刺,比如描写艾伦比: 目空一切的神态,仿佛他已意识到这所大学今年希望全都落在他的身上似的,仿佛人们都在期待着他用他...
评分纪念弗·司各特·菲茨杰拉德逝世七十周年 浮华布景后令人心碎的迷惘 转自10.11.02 文学报 文:余扬 1 那时,弗·司各特·菲茨杰拉德还年轻,正处于创作的巅峰状态。他志得意满地说,一个像我这样的作家,必须拥有绝对的信心以及对自己的幸运之星的绝对信仰。这样的坚信,...
