I come from Des Moines. Somebody had to' And, as soon as Bill Bryson was old enough, he left. Des Moines couldn't hold him, but it did lure him back. After ten years in England, he returned to the land of his youth, and drove almost 14,000 miles in search of a mythical small town called Amalgam, the kind of trim and sunny place where the films of his youth were set. Instead, his search led him to Anywhere, USA; a lookalike strip of gas stations, motels and hamburger outlets populated by lookalike people with a penchant for synthetic fibres. Travelling around thirty-eight of the lower states - united only in their mind-numbingly dreary uniformity - he discovered a continent that was doubly lost; lost to itself because blighted by greed, pollution, mobile homes and television; lost to him because he had become a stranger in his own land. The Lost Continent is a classic of travel literature - hilariously, stomach-achingly funny, yet tinged with heartache - and the book that first staked Bill Bryson's claim as the most beloved writer of his generation.
內容過於無聊瞭…但邊乾活邊聽感覺正是strangely serene, 吐槽也不時讓我笑齣來,William Roberts讀得非常好
評分Bryson自成一派的調侃文風,印象比較深的是Cape Cod,還有卡波特的Cold Blood的原型地挺想去,旅程最後因為對Baseball players不再熟悉而遺憾收場,這股子sense of dislocation總算是畫上瞭句號。

Bill Bryson 的文字里太多机智与幽默,总让我哑然失笑。虽然他的段子多到轻浮的地步。他这一次开车穿行美国大陆,去了不少很无聊的小镇,可这经历被他写的妙趣横生。看完了,我决不会想去跟随他的足迹访问这些小镇,但是我一定会再去读他的书。

評分基本上还原了他当年走的路线,按照书中描写的城镇。 有些地方谷歌自己生成的路线实在无法改,比如他提到有一段景观公路开上去还是gravel road。在地图上无论我怎么拖动路线都改不了。 而且谷歌一段路线的最多节点是固定的,所以只好分了五段,三段是东部的,两段是西部的。 ...
評分“幽默”大概是最常放在Bryson身上的标签了。个人感觉他的书最适合马上枕上厕上等零碎时间看,因为笑点密集,随便拎出几句话,都能让人笑出来。比如他形容美中大平原的平:摞起两本电话黄页站上,能看出去一个州(原文是很大一片风景,get a view)。 但用大块时间一口气读下去...
