Product Description

Jamie Carragher is one of the most charismatic footballers of his generation. Adored by the fans, he was recently voted the most popular player in the entire Liverpool squad. Yet the young Carra came to Liverpool as an Everton fan, from an Everton family and with Everton friends. Packed with great anecdotes, controversial opinions and large helpings of his trademark humour, this is his story...Born in January 1978 in Bootle, Merseyside, Carragher signed professional terms with Liverpool in 1996, having served a successful apprenticeship, won the FA Youth Cup and played for England Under-21s. He scored a goal in his first full league game for the senior team - pretty good for a defender and very unusual for him - and his versatility was to ensure a permanent place in the starting line up before long and he is now vice-captain. In fact he is so integral to the Liverpool squad, the Kop chants 'we all dream of a team of Carraghers' to the tune of 'Yellow Submarine'. Raw, funny and down-to-earth, his book is an antidote to the anodyne sports autobiography. It takes you behind the scenes of all of Liverpool and England's greatest triumphs and disasters in the company of a player who never fails to be intelligent, controversial or just downright hilarious.

作者简介

Now vice-captain and Liverpool's longest serving player - one of a select band of players to have made more than 500 appearances for the club - Jamie Carragher signed professional terms with the Reds aged 18 in October 1996. His first team debut came at Middlesbrough on 8 January 1997 as a substitute and he made his first start against Aston Villa ten days later. Carra's passion, enthusiasm and incredible versatility soon ensured regular starts from then on, whether at right-back, left-back, centre-half or in defensive midfield. Carra was part of Gerard Houllier's Treble-winning side of 2001, playing most of the season at left-back. His solid displays earned him a full England debut against Holland in August 2001. Sadly, like teammate Steven Gerrard, injury ruled him out of the 2002 World Cup, and there was more heartbreak a year later when a broken leg forced him to miss six months of the 2003-04 campaign. While Carra had always been a first-team regular at Anfield, he'd somehow struggled to get the recognition he deserved. Each new signing was seen as a threat to his place. The arrival of new boss Rafa Benitez changed all this, with Mr Versatile getting the permanent centre-back slot he'd always craved. The Bootle boy was soon being labelled the most underrated defender in the country, not least for his heroics in the unforgettable Champions League final in 2005, and was voted Liverpoolfc.tv's Player of the Year. In July 2005, the defender signed a new four-year deal at Anfield. His loyalty was rewarded a month later when, in the absence of the injured Steven Gerrard, Carra lifted the European Super Cup. There was more silverware at the end of the season despite an own goal in the FA Cup final against West Ham. It was the defender's 10th final in as many years - and what better way to prepare for the World Cup, even though it was to end in crushing disappointment. In August 2006 Carra captained the club in the Community Shield against champions Chelsea, jointly holding the silver dish aloft with injured skipper Gerrard.

用户评价

**第一段评价：** 我最近读完了一本让我心绪久久不能平静的书，它像一团迷雾，在你以为快要触碰到真相时，又突然消散，留下满心的疑惑和回味。作者的笔触极其细腻，描绘的场景充满了异域的风情，那种古老、神秘的氛围一下子就把我拽进了那个虚构的世界里。角色之间的对话常常是那种看似平淡却暗流涌动的类型，每一次试探、每一次欲言又止，都像是在水面下进行着一场没有硝烟的战争。我尤其欣赏作者对于环境的刻画，那种光影的变幻、气味的捕捉，简直让人身临其境，仿佛真的能闻到空气中弥漫的尘土和香料的味道。这本书的叙事节奏把握得相当巧妙，前半部分的铺陈缓慢而扎实，为后半部分突如其来的转折积蓄了巨大的能量。当高潮来临时，我几乎是屏住呼吸一口气读完的，那种情绪上的冲击力非常强大。唯一让我略感遗憾的是，某些角色的动机在结尾处似乎处理得有些仓促，留下的尾巴需要读者自己去拼凑，虽然这或许是作者有意为之，增加解读的空间，但对于习惯于清晰收尾的读者来说，会有些意犹未尽。总而言之，这是一次非常值得的阅读体验，它挑战了我的阅读习惯，也拓宽了我对叙事可能性的想象。

**第三段评价：** 我通常不太喜欢过于宏大的历史背景叙事，总觉得容易失焦，但这本书成功地打破了我的偏见。它以一个极为微小、几乎可以忽略不计的家族史为切入点，却巧妙地辐射出了一个时代剧烈的社会变迁和文化冲突。作者对细节的把握达到了令人发指的地步，无论是衣料的质地、餐桌上的礼仪，还是不同阶层人群的说话口音，都被描绘得栩栩如生，仿佛我不是在阅读文字，而是在翻阅一本高清晰度的老照片集。这本书最打动我的地方，在于它对“人性在巨大历史洪流下的无力感”的描绘。那些曾经雄心勃勃、意气风发的人物，最终都以一种近乎悲凉的方式，被时间的巨轮碾过，留下的只有无声的叹息。情感的张力处理得极其内敛，没有过度的煽情，所有的悲伤都沉淀在了字里行间，需要读者自己去体会那种“此时无声胜有声”的韵味。这本书的结构就像一个精密的钟表，每一个齿轮，无论大小，都在准确地驱动着整体的运行，读完后有一种极度满足的完成感，感觉自己真正经历了一段漫长而真实的人生。

**第四段评价：** 这本书的节奏感简直是教科书级别的！我注意到作者在描写紧张场景时，句子会变得极短，多用动词，画面感强到让人心跳加速，仿佛置身于现场，连呼吸都变得急促。而当叙事转向内心独白或回忆时，语言又会变得舒缓、悠长，充满了画面和音乐性，读起来有一种在林间漫步的放松感。这种动静结合的叙事技巧，使得全书的阅读体验张弛有度，绝不会让人感到疲劳。另外，书中对于“信任”这一主题的探讨非常深刻。它展示了在极端压力环境下，人与人之间关系是如何被扭曲、重塑，甚至彻底瓦解的。很多时候，你以为是盟友的人，转身就成了最锋利的刀刃，这种现实的残酷性被作者毫不留情地揭示了出来。我非常喜欢作者塑造的那个女性角色，她独立、坚韧，但又不失脆弱，她的挣扎和成长构成了全书最动人的弧线。这本书的文字力量强大到足以穿透表象，直击人心深处，是一部充满张力、情节紧凑且主题深刻的佳作。

**第五段评价：** 我对这类带有强烈地域色彩的作品一向抱有很高的期待，而这本书完全没有让我失望。作者似乎对那个特定的地理环境有着深入骨髓的热爱与理解，书中的风景不仅仅是背景，它本身就是一个活生生的角色，影响着每一个人的命运和选择。语言上，作者似乎非常偏爱使用一些古老而富有韵律感的词汇，使得整本书读起来有一种醇厚的美感，像是品尝一杯陈年的老酒，初尝可能觉得有些辛辣，但后劲十足，回味无穷。我尤其欣赏作者对于民间传说和信仰的引入，这些元素巧妙地编织进了现代人物的故事线中，营造出一种古老传统与现代文明激烈碰撞的戏剧张力。虽然故事的主线是围绕着一个悬而未决的秘密展开，但作者并没有急于揭晓答案，而是用大量的篇幅去渲染那种被秘密笼罩的压抑气氛，这种“慢炖”的手法反而更具吸引力。读完后，我立刻在地图上搜索了书中所描绘的那些虚构地名旁边的真实地点，那种强烈的代入感，是很多作品难以企及的。这本书，是写给那些懂得欣赏文字之美和文化肌理的读者的礼物。

**第二段评价：** 说实话，这本书的开头差点让我放弃，那种意识流的写法，句子结构极其复杂，初看之下，如同在阅读一长串没有标点的密码，让人摸不着头脑。我花了几乎两个早上的时间才勉强适应了作者那种跳跃性的思维模式，一旦过了那个门槛，后面的阅读体验就如同坐上了一趟失控的过山车，刺激且不可预测。这本书的哲学意味非常浓厚，它探讨了关于“真实”与“虚构”的边界问题，读着读着，我开始怀疑自己日常生活中的某些认知是否也只是某种约定俗成的幻象。作者大量运用了隐喻和象征，每一个重复出现的物体或颜色，似乎都指向了某种更深层次的含义，这使得阅读过程更像是一场解谜游戏，充满了智力上的挑战。我甚至专门停下来，拿了笔记本记录下了几个关键的象征符号，试图梳理出它们之间的内在联系。这本书的优点在于其思想的深度和广度，它绝不是那种提供即时娱乐的消遣读物，而是需要读者全身心投入、反复咀嚼的“硬菜”。它并不友好，但如果你愿意付出努力，它回报给你的绝对是思想上的震撼。我推荐给那些厌倦了传统线性叙事，渴望被文学“折磨”一番的读者。
