Katherine Hepburn is, at 84, still the positive, feisty, upper-class lady she portrayed in The Philadelphia Story . Her autobiography, clearly not ghostwritten, tells some stories of her life but not all--she comes from a class that didn't let it all hang out. Her 27-year affair with Spencer Tracy is discussed with fond memories (the years together were to her ``absolute bliss'')--the idea that it was scandalous at the time doesn't seem to cross her mind, and she is surprised to find that Tracy's wife thought the affair was only a rumor. She seems to remember almost everyone fondly--her wonderful parents; her loving, supportive husband, whom she admits she treated badly; the numerous beaus, directors, and fellow actors with whom she worked. More than 160 black-and-white photos lend credibility to her enduring beauty, but it's the somewhat breathless, positive prose that makes Hepburn come alive as herself or as she wishes to be seen--an uncomplaining, stalwart, lucky, admired, and ``classy'' lady.

With the publication of The Making of the African Queen in 1987, Katharine Hepburn proved that she can number writing among her many talents, and that her humor and intelligence, and the inimitable cadences of her voice translate vividly to the printed page. Now, with characteristic gusto and candor, she delivers her eagerly awaited memoir. 75 photographs.

**书评四** 这是一部结构严谨,逻辑缜密的群像小说,它更像是精密运转的钟表,每一个齿轮——也就是每一个角色——都必须按照特定的轨道运行,才能最终指向那个令人唏嘘的结局。这本书的厉害之处在于,它如何巧妙地将多条看似毫不相关的线索,通过一种潜藏的、几乎是宿命般的联系串联起来。我在阅读过程中,时不时会停下来,在脑海中绘制人物关系图谱,试图弄清楚这个精心编织的网络是如何被构建起来的。作者对权力结构和阶层固化的观察,有着一种近乎冷酷的洞察力,他毫不留情地揭示了“规则”是如何被制定和用来维护既得利益者的。这本书的语调是冷静克制的,缺乏大量煽情的部分,但这反而增强了它作为一种社会观察报告的力量。它不试图给你一个安慰的答案,而是让你明白,在某些宏大的系统面前,个体的努力往往显得多么微不足道。读完后,我感到的不是沮丧,而是一种清晰的认识——看清了游戏的规则,下一步才能更好地应对。
评分**书评一** 这本书,说实话,拿到手里的时候,我其实并没有抱太大期望。封面设计得挺简洁,但我总觉得少了点什么抓人的点。然而,当我翻开第一页,那种叙事的声音,一下子就将我拉了进去。作者对日常细节的捕捉能力简直令人惊叹,那些细微的情感波动、转瞬即逝的念头,都被他用一种近乎诗意的笔触描绘出来。整个阅读过程,就像是跟随一个非常老练的向导,走在一条熟悉又陌生的街道上。你以为你知道接下来会发生什么,但总有那么一个转角,会展示出你从未留意过的光影和色彩。我特别欣赏其中关于“时间”的探讨,它不是那种高深的哲学说教,而是融入在每一个场景、每一个人物的呼吸之间,让人不禁停下来,反思自己是如何度过那些被我们轻易浪费掉的片刻光阴。这本书的节奏把握得非常精妙,张弛有度,让你在沉浸感中既能感受到故事的推进,又不至于感到压迫。看完之后,我留给自己的,是一种非常温柔而持久的余韵,仿佛刚刚经历了一场心灵的深度按摩,推荐给所有需要慢下来品味生活的读者。
评分**书评二** 坦白讲,这本书的开篇有点劝退。它采用了非线性的叙事结构,信息量很大,初读起来会有一种雾里看花的错觉,需要读者付出额外的耐心去梳理人物关系和时间脉络。但如果坚持读下去,你会发现作者的野心所在——他试图构建一个复杂的人类情感生态系统。这本书的魅力在于其深度挖掘了“不确定性”对个体意志的影响。我不是在谈论宏大的命运议题,而是那些具体的、每天都会面对的选择:是开口解释,还是保持沉默?是坚持原则,还是适度妥协?书中对这些灰色地带的描摹,尖锐而精准,充满了现实的重量感。某些段落的对话设计,尤其精彩,言简意赅,但字里行间藏着千军万马,需要反复咀嚼才能领会其中的机锋和无奈。它不是一本读完就丢开的书,更像是一面镜子,映照出我们自身在面对困境时的犹豫和挣扎。看完后,我甚至有点后怕,因为它暴露了太多人性中不那么光鲜的一面,但正因如此,它才显得如此真实和宝贵。
评分**书评三** 哇塞,这本书的文笔简直是野蛮生长的那种生命力!完全没有传统文学的那种矫揉造作,语言非常直接、粗粝,带着一股子泥土和汗水的味道。我感觉作者是在用一种近乎口述实录的方式,记录下那些被主流叙事忽略掉的生活侧面。这本书最让我震撼的是它对环境氛围的塑造,无论是对一座工业小镇的阴郁描绘,还是对某个特定季节里光线特性的捕捉,都达到了令人信服的程度。你几乎可以闻到那种潮湿的空气,听到远处机器的轰鸣声。而且,这本书的人物塑造极其立体,没有绝对的好人或坏蛋,每个人都有自己的逻辑和伤痕,他们的动机常常是自相矛盾的,这才是活生生的人啊!我特别喜欢作者在关键情节的处理上,那种戛然而止的留白,把解释的权力交给了读者,让我们自己去填补那些血肉模糊的部分。如果说有什么不足,那就是它太“疼”了,读起来很过瘾,但心脏也跟着紧绷了好几回,需要一个缓冲期来消化这种强烈的感官冲击。
评分**书评五** 我得承认,这本书带给我的阅读体验是颠覆性的。它打破了传统小说的叙事边界,采用了大量的元小说手法,作者似乎一直在跟读者进行一场心照不宣的智力游戏。比如,书中会突然插入一些看似无关的脚注,或者角色会直接对“作者的意图”进行讨论,这种多层次的叙事结构,让阅读过程充满了探索的乐趣。它探讨的主题非常前沿,涉及记忆的可塑性、身份的流变性,以及信息时代的真实与虚构的界限。这本书的魅力不在于它告诉你一个故事,而在于它邀请你一起参与到“故事是如何被创造出来”的过程中去。它的文字游戏玩得非常漂亮,充满了双关和隐喻,需要读者具备一定的知识储备和开放的心态去接纳。说实话,我读得很慢,因为我经常需要停下来,去查阅某些典故,或者回味某一个精妙的文字排列。对于那些追求纯粹消遣的读者来说,这本书可能会略显晦涩,但对于喜欢挑战思维的‘深度玩家’来说,绝对是一场盛宴。
