Sylvia Beach was intimately acquainted with the expatriate and visiting writers of the Lost Generation, a label that she never accepted. Like moths of great promise, they were drawn to her well-lighted bookstore and warm hearth on the Left Bank. "Shakespeare and Company" evokes the zeitgeist of an era through its revealing glimpses of James Joyce, Ernest Hemingway, Scott Fitzgerald, Sherwood Anderson, Andre Gide, Ezra Pound, Gertrude Stein, Alice B. Toklas, D. H. Lawrence, and others already famous or soon to be. In his introduction to this new edition, James Laughlin recalls his friendship with Sylvia Beach. Like her bookstore, his publishing house, New Directions, is considered a cultural touchstone.
Sylvia Beach (March 14, 1887 – October 5, 1962), born Nancy Woodbridge Beach, was an American-born bookseller and publisher who lived most of her life in Paris, where she was one of the leading expatriate figures between World War I and II.
自从出版了乔伊斯的《尤利西斯》后,毕奇女士的莎士比亚书店就成了乔伊斯的个人事务代理所,来往书信、收支账务、订购图书,乔伊斯的事儿总是忙不完,更甚的是,每临近周末,乔伊斯总会拿出一大堆事来,但是毕奇女士说:“我可以为乔伊斯做任何事,但是我周末必须休假!”几乎...
评分希尔维亚·碧奇是20世纪2、30年代英美现代文学的保姆,她的莎士比亚书店不仅仅是书店,还是银行、邮局和图书馆,更是落魄作家的避难所。海明威在身后的回忆录《巴黎圣宴》中对此感激涕零,乔伊斯客居迪利亚斯特时,不止一次念叨希尔维亚的好,作曲家安萨尔住在书店二楼,他不习...
评分 评分中学时,每日和好友一起乘公交车上学,当经过城市中心广场边的一个巨大而拥挤的杂志亭时,我两总会不约而同的感叹道:“啊,好想抢了这个杂志亭。”这是一种来自于囊中羞涩的无奈,也是由青春期荷尔蒙催发的强烈猎奇求知心理和占有欲望。当时,在我出生成长的地方,书店业总体...
评分“假如你有幸能年轻时在巴黎生活过,那么此后一生中不论去到哪里,巴黎都会与你同在,因为巴黎是一个不固定的盛节。”海明威如是说。1921年年轻的海明威移居巴黎,在塞纳河左岸结识了一众文学同好,后来许多人和海明威一样,都成为了家喻户晓的文学大师,其间,斯泰因的沙龙和...
真正的“谈笑有鸿儒 往来无白丁”的地方,能拥有这样一家书店真是此生别无他求了。在感叹Finnegans Wake绝难读懂的时候,为什么不来看看本书里那位鲜活亲切的James Joyce呢?

评分Walt Whitman在Bucherie的家
评分a glorious age and a peculiar crowd. Beach herself isn't a particularly engaging storyteller and the book is almost entirely focused on Joyce (looking for scott and hemingway I finished it a bit disappointed). some language interestingly reflect certain ideas that now seem outdated. hemingway's own movable feast is way better.
评分爱这个书店!爱Sylvia Beach!读的时候那些人事物感觉就在旁边发生!
