具体描述

GOD, GIVE ME THE STRENGTH TO WRITE. IT IS POWERFUL. IT IS TRUE. SOMEONE, SOMEWHERE, WILL LISTEN. I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness. I followed a path that always seemed clear, but that in reality was unseen. The path led me here...and now I must stray. Remain until my judgment. My body can travel on, and I can still laugh, but I cannot clear the dust from my feet. I may regret, but cannot repay in this life. If I still live, someday I will try. All that I now can do is write, write in agony for all who travel this way. They will not heed, but at least they will know where they are when they reach these flat lands. You see, there are no more hills to hide behind. I have flattened them all. Danny is dead - who is speaking? Danny's spirit. The mind must 'die' before the spirit can live. About a boy, written by himself and seen in the writing. So wrote eighteen-year-old David Schwimmer in the waning months of his life. And all during his seventeen years David also brilliantly recorded - in his journals, poems, and stories - his agonizing struggles with his soul over his psychological and sexual dilemmas. Through his journals, we also see David strive to become a writer, a long distance runner, an outdoorsman and a friend. We are with him as he begins to experience his sexuality an we watch his spirituality flower beside it. We observe him wrestling with personal relationships in high school and college, see his efforts to question and direct his body, mind, and spirit, carefully nurturing his own conception of himself, while attempting to deal with his inner problems. We watch him work at practicing unconditional love. This record ofDavid's inner life has been compiled and edited by David' s father, George Schwimmer, Ph. D. It is a ritual journey through the mind and soul of David, in which David tries to search out who he is and why he is on Earth. This is the fundamental search that all human beings undertake during their life, to discover who they really are. Everyone who has read David's journals describes David's writing as deeply moving, touching all who experience it.

用户评价

这是一本能够触动灵魂的作品，它带来的震撼并非来自惊心动魄的情节，而是源自于作者对人类情感的深刻洞察。我被书中人物的真实性所深深吸引，他们不是完美的英雄，也不是纯粹的反派，而是和我们一样，有着自己的喜怒哀乐，有着自己的挣扎与困惑。作者用一种极其真诚的笔触，描绘了他们在生活中所经历的种种，那些细微的情感波动，那些不为人知的内心独白，都仿佛就发生在我身边。我常常在阅读的过程中，会不由自主地将自己代入其中，去体会角色的感受，去理解他们的选择。这种强烈的共鸣感，是我在其他许多书中从未体验过的。这本书让我重新审视了人与人之间的关系，让我更加理解了爱与失去，理解了成长与遗忘。它没有说教，但却教会了我很多。它像是一面镜子，照出了我内心深处的情感，也让我对生活有了更深的敬畏。

我必须说，这本书的深度着实令人印象深刻。它不像一本轻松的读物，更多的是需要你投入时间和精力去细细品味，去体会其中的层次感。作者的写作功底毋庸置疑，他对语言的驾驭能力达到了炉火纯青的地步，每一个词语，每一个句子，都仿佛经过了精心的雕琢，充满了力量和美感。在阅读过程中，我常常会因为某句话而停下来，反复咀嚼，从中感受到作者想要传达的独特见解。故事的推进也并非一帆风顺，而是充满了曲折和意想不到的转折，这使得阅读过程充满了挑战，也充满了乐趣。我喜欢作者不回避现实的勇气，他敢于将生活中那些不那么美好的一面赤裸裸地呈现在读者面前，但又不会让人感到绝望，反而会从中看到希望的曙光。总而言之，这是一本需要慢慢读，细细品的作品，每一次阅读都能带来新的启发，也让我对人生的理解又更进了一步。

这本书真的让我眼前一亮，尤其是它在构建人物时的细腻之处。作者似乎拥有一种魔力，能够将角色从纸页中活灵活现地“拉”出来，让你感同身受。我尤其喜欢主角的内心独白，那些看似不经意的想法，却充满了智慧和对生活深刻的洞察。每一次翻阅，我都能从中发现新的东西，就像在与一位老友进行一场别开生面的对话。叙事的手法也相当老道，情节的铺陈张弛有度，时而引人入胜，时而让人沉思。而且，作者在语言的运用上更是独具匠心，遣词造句都恰到好处，既富有诗意又不失通俗易懂，读起来丝毫没有负担感，反而是一种享受。我曾一度以为自己已经看透了故事的走向，但每一次都被作者巧妙的安排所惊艳。这种惊喜感，是很多小说难以给予的。这本书不仅仅是一个故事，更像是一扇窗户，让我得以窥见人性的复杂与美好，也让我对周遭的世界有了更深的理解。我甚至会在闲暇时，一遍遍地回味其中的某些片段，仿佛每次都能从中汲取新的力量。

这本作品给我的感受非常奇妙，它不像市面上那些一味追求情节跌宕起伏的书籍，反而以一种近乎平静却又暗流涌动的姿态，缓缓地渗透进读者的内心。作者的叙事节奏把握得非常精准，不会让你感到急躁，也不会让你觉得沉闷，恰到好处地让你沉浸其中，去品味那些隐藏在字里行间的深意。我特别欣赏作者对细节的关注，那些微不足道的场景描写，那些人物之间不经意的小动作，都仿佛蕴含着某种象征意义，等待着读者去发掘。每一次阅读，我都会有新的感悟，仿佛这本书是在根据我的心境变化而展现出不同的面貌。它没有强行灌输任何道理，而是通过故事本身，引导读者去思考、去感受。这种“润物细无声”的叙事方式，反而更具力量，更能触动人心深处。读完之后，我并没有那种“故事结束了”的怅然若失，反而有一种意犹未尽，仿佛这部作品的故事还在我的脑海中继续延伸，与我的生活交织在一起。

这本书真的给了我前所未有的阅读体验。它打破了我对传统叙事的固有认知，以一种非常规却又极具吸引力的方式展开。我尤其着迷于作者的想象力，那些天马行空的设定，那些超乎寻常的逻辑，都让我在阅读过程中时时刻刻保持着好奇心。每一次翻页，都像是推开了一扇通往未知世界的大门。而且，作者在构建情节时，似乎总能预料到读者的下一步想法，然后又以一种出人意料的方式来打破你的预期，这种“反套路”的设计，让我欲罢不能。这本书不仅仅是娱乐，它更像是在挑战你的思维极限，让你跳出固有的框架去思考问题。我不得不承认，在某些时刻，我甚至需要停下来，花些时间去消化作者所构建的宏大世界观，去理解那些复杂的概念。但正是这种挑战，让我感受到了前所未有的阅读快感，仿佛我自己的认知也在随着这本书的阅读而不断拓展。
