到底是「張迷」—張愛玲在1944

雖然明知是皇冠出版社榨取某人的剩餘價值而出的,掙扎再三還是把它敗回家了,因為裡頭有她的手寫稿copy,我莫名的喜愛她寫的字。還有,可以看到她改稿的認真(這讓我想起Jane Austen也是多次修改Persuasion的結局)

Most wanted New Year Present!

This is my most wanted item for 2009:-
(would it make me more hopelessly addicted to all things Austen?)

2009 Jane Austen Wall Calendar
http://www.jasna.org/merchandise/calendar.html

from AustenBlog: "We received a copy of the Wisconsin Region's 2009 Jane Austen calendar and can attest to it as a lovely and useful item for the Jane Austen fan. The calendar features color illustrations by the Brock brothers, and nearly every day has an entry from Jane Austen's life or novels. The calendar is $15 plus shipping (see the order page for S&H costs) and they will ship to the UK. "

Hmm...a little bit expensive for me though....

This one has beautiful pictures (http://www.austenquotes.com/jane_austen_press/), but I don't really need it as I've actually been to some of the places!(not that I want to show off....)

[轉貼]古書展下月舉行 《愛瑪》初版售395萬

一向認為書中文字要比書本的價值高得多。對Austen的古本、珍本沒興趣研究,不過很好奇這本初版Emma是如何的樣子?

如果Austen知道她的書現在這麼值錢,會不會後悔她的版稅收得那麼便宜?(現在她的文字甚至已是public domain)

Into The Wild

每隔一陣子,總會有那麼的一部電影,令我重新反思生命及活著的意義,即使片子已放完最後一行字幕,那些片段還久久的停在腦海中,最近期的有這一部——




"I have had a happy life and thank the lord.

Goodbye and may God bless all!" — Christopher McCAndless

我不知道有多少人在瀕死時可以這樣正面的寫下這句遺言,尤其是二十出頭少年時,被迫要給人生畫上休止符的時候。但我看到這句遺言時,真的覺得他非常棒!雖然大概大部份人看完電影都只會覺得他太傻太天真。
