The legal thriller of the decade. --Cleveland Plain Dealer
Now a Major Motion Picture!
In this true story of an epic courtroom showdown, two of the nation's largest corporations stand accused of causing the deaths of children. Representing the bereaved parents, the unlikeliest of heroes emerges: a young, flamboyant Porsche-driving lawyer who hopes to win millions of dollars and ends up nearly losing everything, including his sanity. A searing, compelling tale of a legal system gone awry--one in which greed and power fight an unending struggle against justice-- A Civil Action is also the story of how one determined man can ultimately make a difference. With an unstoppable narrative power, it is an unforgettable reading experience.
Jonathan Harr lives and works in Northampton, Massachusetts, where he has taught nonfiction writing at Smith College. He is a former staff writer at New England Monthly and has written for The New Yorker and The New York Times Magazine.
Harr spent nine years researching and writing A Civil Action, which was published in 1995, subsequently nominated for a National Book Award, and awarded the National Book Critics Circle Award.
之前上課讀完the Buffalo disaster老師就推薦瞭這本,說不是每一個案子都伸張正義瞭,這個就輸的很慘,破産的主角還來我們學校演講過。。。。終於抽空讀瞭寫的真好。。。
評分The most intriguing and compelling litigation story I have ever read. 整個感恩節都在讀的一本書,也是各大法學院的必讀,沒讀過簡直不好意思說自己pre-law。在法庭上無法獲得的正義,讓全社會,讓曆史來重新審判。
評分4.5。本學期完成的第二本閱讀教材。最後那段真是。。。一個人是要被什麼摧毀的過程中纔有可能意識到存在的真相的。被摧毀而未消亡,就有可能抵達真正的自己。很殘酷。所幸他遊嚮深海之後,最後還是迴來瞭。
評分Civ Pro required reading
評分Easy to read and attractive,but the end is quite gloomy.
下半年入P大国际法学院,这本是导师推荐的入学前需要读完的第一本书,算是对美国法律体系是怎么运作的初步印象吧,导师强调的还是解决问题的思维而不是法律条文。另外的一本的是To Kill A Mockingbird.

評分在看虚构写作里面提到了这部,这个奇怪的译名让我好找。 看到三分之一 关于法律知识和实物有点了解,比如律师是如何开展工作的,如何攻击对手的,的确是个吸血,变相敲诈的行当哈哈哈哈,不过也算利益再分配的一种方式吧,特别是伤人赔偿这一环,可能特别有行侠仗义感 写作方面...
評分 評分书看完的一些感受: 1、在法律保障基本人权方面,我们与美国还差50年的距离。1970年代的美国民事诉讼,原被告的证人都可以在人身安全得到保障的前提下、没有负担地参与诉讼,在法院工作人员的见证下,接受双方询问,以期尽可能接近事实真相,不会被对方威胁、不用担心被报复。...
