弗兰克·迈考特爱尔兰裔美籍教师,作家。1930年生于纽约,4岁时举家迁往爱尔兰,在贫民窟度过悲惨的童年。13岁辍学,19岁重返美国,当过兵,做过码头工人。“家国不幸诗人幸”,迈考特为这句话作了最好的诠释。苦难童年没有消磨他的斗志,反而让他学会在挫折中成长,在灰烬中微笑。1996年,处女作、自传体小说《安琪拉的灰烬》出版,一举获得普利策文学奖、全美书评奖、洛杉矶时报图书奖、美国年度好书奖等,连续117周雄踞<纽约时报》畅销书榜。之后陆续推出《就是这里了》和《教书匠》,好评如潮,使一个“教书匠”誉满全球。
《教书匠》于2005年11月出版,一周内即登上《纽约时报》畅销书榜首,后迅速被译成20多种文字,受到全世界教师、学生和广大读者的普遍好评:“自传体故事中最真诚的作品”、“教师的《圣经》”、“每个学生需要至少熟读10遍的温馨文字”。
《教书匠》以一个个生动的故事,用辛辣诙谐的文字,回顾作者30载从教生涯的苦涩与甘甜,讲述令人过目难忘的精彩人生。作者从不吝惜对自己的嘲讽,从不否认与学生似敌似友的关系,对规则和权威从骨子里透出蔑视,幽默和善良也从未在生命中缺席。他从不向学生灌输什么,而是在春风化雨问教会了他们唱自己的歌、跳自己的舞、讲自己的故事……

评分或许是书名打消了很多人的阅读欲望,以为一本讲当老师的书不会怎么有趣。 其实不然。 这本书是“巴学园”系列里我最中意的一本。《窗边的小豆豆》是不错,可对很多人来说,读到这本书时已经太迟;《教书匠》则不会,每个年龄段的人都能在这里找到触动自己的地...
评分《教书匠》这本书我可以相信它是一本小说,但很难相信它是一部自传,因为我不相信有人会那么真实地描述自己的经历隐私,从而怀疑书里的迈考特先生是不是作者本人,或者只是借用了作者名子和身份的一个虚构人物。 不管怎么样,开始读这本书时我就对它产生了兴趣,尽管我始终怀疑...
评分考分考分,学生的命根,麦考特不是太把分数当一回事,他的课程很受欢迎。几百个学生报名要选修他的课。学生和家长们无所不用其极。有个学生母亲甚至提出,如果麦考特让孩子上他的写作课,她可以陪他上床。麦考特在酒吧里和朋友吹嘘此事,朋友说:老哥,有这样的好事?你还有心...
评分最近在看Frank McCourt的《教书匠》(Teacher Man)。国内有些介绍中将此书书名译为《为人师表》,属点金成铁。作者文笔轻松,举重若轻,喜自嘲,将书名译成《教书匠》更为传神,也更形似。 再现爱尔兰风采 作者弗兰克•麦考特(Frank McCourt)是个移民美国的爱尔兰作家,单...

Nearly a decade ago Frank McCourt became an unlikely star when, at the age of 66, he burst onto the literary scene with Angela's Ashes, the Pulitzer Prize-winning memoir of his childhood in Limerick, Ireland. Then came ' Tis, his glorious account of his early years in New York. Now here at last, is McCourt's long-awaited audiobook about how his thirty-year teaching career shaped his second act as a writer. Teacher Man is also an urgent tribute to teachers everywhere. In bold and spirited prose featuring his irreverent wit and heartbreaking honesty, McCourt records the trials, triumphs and surprises he faces in public high schools around New York City. Teacher Man shows McCourt developing his unparalleled ability to tell a great story as he works to gain the attention and respect of unruly, hormonally-charged or indifferent adolescents. McCourt's rocky marriage, his failed attempt to get a Ph.D. at Trinity College, Dublin, and his repeated firings due to his propensity to talk back to his superiors ironically lead him to New York's most prestigious school, Stuyvesant High School, where he finally finds a place and a voice. For McCourt, storytelling itself is the source of salvation and in Teacher Man the journey to redemption -- and literary fame -- is an exhilarating adventure.
