Katharine Graham was the legendary publisher of The Washington Post. She died in July 2001.
Katharine Graham's father was a multi-millionaire who left private business and government service to buy and restore the down-and-out Washington Post. Her husband Phil Graham was a brilliant and charismatic man whose plunge into manic depression and eventual suicide is recounted movingly and charitably in this book. Above all, Katharine Graham tells her own story - the contradictions of her privileged yet lonely childhood; the tragic drama of her marriage - and the challenges of her new life as the head of a great newspaper company. An extraordinarily frank, honest and generous book by one of America's most famous and admired women, owner of one of its greatest newspapers, the Washington Post. This is more than the mere life story of a successful woman. It deals with power and politics at the centre, and the relationship between the White House and the press, notably over Watergate.
凯瑟琳·格雷厄姆是《华盛顿邮报》的总裁,这个报纸是他父亲买下来的,后面又转给她的丈夫菲利普·格雷厄姆经营。在这700多页的个人历史当中,前一半可能是一个上流社会太太的形象,围绕着自己的丈夫和孩子转,但是故事在她的丈夫菲利普自杀之后,开启了人生的另外一种可能...
评分Katherine Graham陆续这个名字出现在了我喜欢的三本书中,是两位金融大鳄Warren Buffett和Peter Peterson的密友,只是这一点便让我好奇地找来这本书看。 在阅读过程中,我不停地因为格雷厄姆夫人的诚实而客观的描述而感到惊讶,她坦诚地写出童年缺乏母亲关爱导致的不安全感,...
看了年轻部分的她,结婚以后的部分实在不知道再讲什么。
评分这本600多页的自传,我从4月底看到8月底,真的是花时最久的一本书了 这个女人,出生富裕家庭,她爹当过美联储主席,买下了华盛顿邮报,后来她老公接手了邮报的运营,她从白富美直接做阔太太,(他们各地的家都是城堡那种规模的。。。带湖)到46岁一直是超有钱的家庭妇女角色。 然后。。。经历了父亲去世,老公出轨,老公躁郁,老公自杀。。。一夜之间需要靠她撑起一个企业,而她这辈子只有刚大学毕业那一年的工作经验。 这经历是不是比电影都刺激!起点小说都不敢这么写的。后来就是这个女人带领邮报完美渡过了五角大楼文件,水门事件等等危机,让邮报从一家华盛顿地区的小报纸变为全世界都有影响力的声音,中间处理各种危机所表现出的韧性,冷静,好学,勤奋,宽容,以及来源于家庭背景的自信,让人发自内心的钦佩。
评分看了年轻部分的她,结婚以后的部分实在不知道再讲什么。
评分自从十三年前《猎杀红十月号》后之后,再次试图看一本纯文字的英文原版书。600多页,一个白富美的生平自述。不过确实compelling和riveting,清楚明白,不难读。读原版最大的障碍是畏惧感,到后来,就不会强迫自己句句精读,反而比较放松。作为一个大报的发行人、美国的胡舒立,她的生活和全国大多数政要都有交集。她写个人生活可以剖心剖肺,并不避讳隐私,写政治人物却绝不越界,显示了某种令人赞叹的素质
评分Today is 15th April 2020. I bought the book 6 years ago and just finished reading it. I brought it with me to UK 2018 and to US 2020. It was the book taking me six years to read though half of it was finished in the past two months the stay-in home policy of defeating COVID-19.
