Anne Fadiman is--by her own admission--the sort of person who learned about sex from her father's copy of "Fanny Hill," whose husband buys her 19 pounds of dusty books for her birthday, and who once found herself poring over her roommate's 1974 Toyota Corolla manual because it was the only written material in the apartment that she had not read at least twice. This witty collection of essays recounts a lifelong love affair with books and language. For Fadiman, as for many passionate readers, the books she loves have become chapters in her own life story. Writing with remarkable grace, she revives the tradition of the well-crafted personal essay, moving easily from anecdotes about Coleridge and Orwell to tales of her own pathologically literary family. As someone who played at blocks with her father's 22-volume set of Trollope ("My Ancestral Castles") and who only really considered herself married when she and her husband had merged collections ("Marrying Libraries"), she is exquisitely well equipped to expand upon the art of inscriptions, the perverse pleasures of compulsive proof-reading, the allure of long words, and the satisfactions of reading out loud. There is even a foray into pure literary gluttony--Charles Lamb liked buttered muffin crumbs between the leaves, and Fadiman knows of more than one reader who literally consumes page corners. Perfectly balanced between humor and erudition, "Ex Libris" establishes Fadiman as one of our finest contemporary essayists.

评分The book starts with this: When the Irish novelist John Mcgahern was a child, his sisters unlaced and removed one of his shoes while he was reading. He did not stir. They placed a straw hat on his head. No response. Only when they took away the wooden chair on which he was sitting did he, as he puts it, "wake out of the book." I was such a child -- and I was such a child.

评分Quirky and interesting at times, and the rest of the time..what an tiresome pedantic show-off!
读书:世上最幸福的事情 读安妮 法迪曼《书趣—一个普通读者的自白》 好久没有这样手不释卷一口气读完一本书了,就在读到最后的《二手文章》时,才恍然大悟原来早就“认识”她了:那是在读董桥先生的那部绒面精...
评分这本书我最早看的是繁体,简体出版我已经等了好多年了。 那时我还在上大学。我清楚的记得,对这本书的热爱让我在一个暑假跑到国图不外借的图书室里,一字一句的想要将它敲出来——影印每张要2块钱。 当然这和我所有的兴趣爱好一样,在持续了不到3章后就放弃了。 这么多年后...
评分前几天和美院的几个刚认识的朋友一起吃饭,其中一个告诉我说他的专业是室内设计。 我一听这个专业,不禁乐了一下。因为想起安妮法迪曼在【书的婚事】里讲的一件事儿。 安妮的朋友把房子租给一个室内设计师住了几个月。过了一段时间,当房子重新收回的时候,他们发现整个书房...
评分读着安妮.法迪曼的<<书趣>>,嘴角禁不住的扬起来,感觉那种在书中才能找到的小小快乐又回来了. 很羡慕她周围的环境,有这么多嗜书的亲人,朋友.这种家庭氛围就是书香门第的氛围. 我一直心向往之...她的这本书让我不由得想到杨绛先生写到的家庭场景,一张书桌,每人各据一角,中间堆...
评分我们每个人都会象巨大的蜗牛般留下痕迹。 一直都写不好书评,反省原因,不外乎没有耐性,无法慢慢阐述书本本身,只顾着抒发自己的感受。 但书给人的最宝贵的东西,不就是这些吗? 下面的东西,与《书趣》几乎没有关系,但又都是书趣——书引发的,属于我自己的小趣味。 人如...
