"They've gone now, and I'm alone at last. I have the whole night ahead of me, and I won't waste a single moment of it . . . I want tonight to be long, as long as my life . . ." For young Private Peaceful, looking back over his childhood while he is on night watch in the battlefields of the First World War, his memories are full of family life deep in the countryside: his mother, Charlie, Big Joe, and Molly -- the love of his life. Too young to be enlisted, Thomas has followed his brother to war and now, every moment he spends thinking about his life, means another moment closer to danger.
Private Peaceful is a novel written by Michael Morpurgo, and a play by by Simon Reade, based on the book. It is about a soldier called Thomas, or Tommo, Peaceful, who is looking back on his life from the trenches of World War I. Structurally, each chapter of the book brings the reader closer to the present. The story especially underlines the senselessness of war and ineptitude of the commanding officers.
The play by Simon Reade was first performed at the Bristol Old Vic in April 2004, and starred Alexander Campbell. Later the production enjoyed sell-out transfers to the Edinburgh Festival Fringe and London’s West End, and then toured the United Kingdom.
生活在英國小鎮的小托,跟媽媽、兩個哥哥,還有心生好感的姑娘莫莉,一起過著寜靜、明亮、芬芳的生活。生活中也有悲傷、愁苦、失落,和看似解決不瞭的睏境,每每這時,他們就唱起一首名叫《柑橘與檸檬啊》的歌。在歌聲中,敏感、柔弱的小托慢慢長大。戰爭的轟然來臨,改變瞭所有人的生活。小托本能地逃避戰爭的行為,卻被彆人以及他自己認為是懦弱的。為瞭逃避這種羞恥,為瞭逃避愛情的挫敗,小托謊報瞭年齡,和查理一起應徵入伍。在戰火中,小托對世界和自己有瞭更新的認識,他漸漸褪去瞭柔弱和怯懦,懂得堅強、擔當和關懷,內心越來越強大。

評分平淡中的幸福和悲傷並存
評分在描寫戰爭背景下兒童心靈成長軌跡作品泛濫之際,隻能算平平。以我這麼挫的英文都能一口氣看完原版,毫無來由的瞎自信爆棚,orz
評分平淡中的幸福和悲傷並存
評分聽完的一本書(或者說是廣播劇),Robson Green的版本。很短,但聽的我沉醉瞭。
起先,我以为这是一本关于一个小男孩成长的故事。看着看着,我又以为这是一本关于小男孩和哥哥之间的兄弟情谊的故事。接着读下去,我开始以为这是一本以战争为背景的人性温暖的故事。再读下去,我想这本书应该有一个更高的主题,也许是关于生和死。读到最后,我震惊地发现,这...
評分现年70岁的英国小说麦克·莫波格,以擅长描写极端残酷战争中的人性而著称。他最有名的作品应该是《战马》,2011年被斯皮尔伯格拍摄成同名电影,获得奥斯卡六项提名。今年是一战一百周年,上周他接受《苏格兰人报》采访,也是以《战马》为核心回顾了自己创作战争题材的心路历程...
評分Oranges and lemons, Say the bells of St. Clement's. You owe me five farthings, Say the bells of St. Martin's. When will you pay me? Say the bells of Old Bailey. When I grow rich, Say the bells of Shoreditch. When will that be? Say the bells of Stepney. ...
評分安意如的前言可真够呛. 真难得见前言能把整个书的故事内容从头到尾给概括了一遍. 关键情节和结尾整个都给兜出来了. 人家这是故事书又不是随笔散文杂记什么的,你把故事都讲一遍了我还有必要看么? 我读书的过程整个就成了一个情节发生以后等待另一个已知情节的发生. 毫无悬念. 而...
評分我看书可能和其他人有一点不同的地方:喜欢先看完整本书,再看前面的序。 这本书买了很久,大概一年,,却是在这次回澳洲的飞机上才开始看的。从离开家门到抵达另外一个家门,24小时后留下了20页的大结局。而这20页又是在一个月之后的一个失眠之夜读完的。 ...
