美国作协主席、评论家洛克珊娜-罗宾逊说:“这个令人着迷的故事把让人不安的魔法、心理现实主义和深刻的美感融合在一起。路易斯擅长描写现实世界。故事读来惊心动魄又令人欣慰,充满睿智、富有怜悯又不失优美。”(来源:杰弗雷-布雷出版社)
1. EB White, Charlotte’s Web (1952)
《夏洛特的网》(1952年),EB怀特著
“One day when I was on my way to feed the pig, I began feeling sorry for the pig because, like most pigs, he was doomed to die,” writes White. Charlotte’s Web topped our critics’ poll. “If I were asked to put one book in a space capsule to send to some far-off galaxy to evoke life in all its complexity, I would send White's masterpiece about friendship, loss, resignation and mortality,” notes NPR’s Maureen Corrigan. “It was the first book in which I encountered mortality, legacy and love that transcended differences,” writes author and critic Rigoberto González. “Those were huge lessons from a book that, at its core, was about an adorable friendship between a spider and a pig.”
怀特写道:“一天,在我去喂猪的路上,我开始为猪感到难过,因为就像大多数猪那样,它注定会死去。”《夏洛特的网》在我们的评论家投票中排名居首。美国国家公共广播电台的莫林-科里根写道:“如果要我放一本书到太空舱,发送到遥远的星系,唤醒复杂的生命,我会把怀特的这本有关友谊、失去、放弃和生死的杰作送上去。”作家兼评论家里戈韦托-冈萨雷斯写道:“这是第一本让我遇到超越差异的生死、遗赠、和爱的书。故事的精髓是一只蜘蛛和一头猪之间可敬的友谊,而我们从这本书中却有这么多收获。”
