圖書描述

Jeannette Walls's "The Glass Castle" was "nothing short of spectacular" ("Entertainment Weekly"). Now she brings us the story of her grandmother -- told in a voice so authentic and compelling that the book is destined to become an instant classic. ""Those old cows knew trouble was coming before we did."" So begins the story of Lily Casey Smith, in Jeannette Walls's magnificent, true-life novel based on her no-nonsense, resourceful, hard working, and spectacularly compelling grandmother. By age six, Lily was helping her father break horses. At fifteen, she left home to teach in a frontier town -- riding five hundred miles on her pony, all alone, to get to her job. She learned to drive a car ("I loved cars even more than I loved horses. They didn't need to be fed if they weren't working, and they didn't leave big piles of manure all over the place") and fly a plane, and, with her husband, ran a vast ranch in Arizona. She raised two children, one of whom is Jeannette's memorable mother, Rosemary Smith Walls, unforgettably portrayed in "The Glass Castle." Lily survived tornadoes, droughts, floods, the Great Depression, and the most heartbreaking personal tragedy. She bristled at prejudice of all kinds -- against women, Native Americans, and anyone else who didn't fit the mold. "Half Broke Horses" is Laura Ingalls Wilder for adults, as riveting and dramatic as Isak Dinesen's "Out of Africa" or Beryl Markham's "West with the Night." It will transfix readers everywhere.

沒有太多的感覺。不如她的那本自傳。當然從她的外婆的這本小傳，可以看齣基因的偉大。

Life’s too short to worry about what other people think of you

作為《the glass castle》的前傳，這本書要好看更多！比起 Jeannette 的姥姥來，她媽媽不論從人物性格、為人處世還是人生經曆上來說都遜色好多。感覺這本書更適閤拍成電影。這本書裏作者提到瞭《Gone with the Wind》我覺得作者挺知道自己的書該往哪個方嚮靠的，姥姥的 gut/gumption 確實頗有斯嘉麗的風采。這種寫法確實聰明，讓讀者産生熟悉感。關於 Jeannette 的媽媽怎麼會長成那樣的一個母親，這完全是另外一個有關 nature v.s. nurture 的故事瞭。讀完這兩本書，我覺得世界上絕大多數父母應該都不知道 what they did right/wrong to end up with the kids of their own 吧。

雖然沒有玻璃城堡好看，但還不錯

Half Broke Horses By Jeannette Walls, author of The Glass Castle If you like Walls’ previous novel “The Glass Castle”, you will probably like this one. Some say “Half Broke Horses” is good, but not “The Glass Castle” good. I find them equally fa...
