What are the greatest children’s books ever? In search of a collective
critical assessment, BBC Culture’s Jane Ciabattari polled dozens of critics
around the world, including NPR’s Maureen Corrigan; Nicolette Jones,
children’s books editor of the Sunday Times; Nicole Lamy of the Boston
Globe; Time magazine's books editor Lev Grossman; Daniel Hahn, author of the
new Oxford Companion to Children's Literature; and Beirut-based critic

发帖数: 1642 | 2 A Wild Goose Chase
On the southern bank of Lake Erie,
I was an apparent stranger among locals.
I was not a treasure hunter, rather a wild goose chaser,
even though these two might have the same fate.
I was not disappointed though.
A fleet of wild geese flying afar
melted into the sunset, just the scene
I have dreamt of over and over again.
The air vibrated with my heart beats, which in turn
rhymed with the flutters of the geese's wings.
Above the water, a kite flew high.

发帖数: 1826 | 4 Richard Dawkins’ Law Delusion
AIX-EN-PROVENCE – Richard Dawkins is one of the great minds of our time;
yet in his just-published memoir, Brief Candle in the Dark: My Life in
Science, he notes that great minds often err when they leave their field of
expertise. He cites the great astronomer Fred Hoyle, whose book The Nature
of the Universe was essential reading a half-century ago. When Hoyle turned
to biology, he went astray. The same thing happens to Dawkins when he turns
from science to law.

What happened that night? Your final night.
Double, treble exposure&#

My last sight of you
alive.
Burning your letter to me, in the ashtray,
With that strange smile.
Had I bungled your plan?
Had it surprised me sooner than you purposed?
Had I rushed it back to you too promptly?
One hour later—-you would have been gone
Where I could not have
traced you.

album have good melodies. If you replace the vocal, these songs

发帖数: 1129 | 30 《伤逝》是鲁迅的短篇小说集里面的吧？他写过不少短篇小说，如果你看hard copy的
鲁迅全集，就知道很多语句可能都有指代，有讽刺。我认为鲁的小说其实是行杂文之实
，这位大人性格比较坚硬，耐不得水磨工夫，所以小说也直接切入，情节服务于思想完
了就拉倒。
子君为什么会逝去？在我看来她逝去再对不过了：physically,她被涓生抛弃了（虽然
涓生没有说这个话，实际上离此不远）；mentally,她绝望了，可能不止对romantic
relationship,而且对这个让她极度失望的世界；metaphorically, 她的逝去代表她的
做法的行不通（你知道鲁迅很反对像娜拉那样出走，所以我想他同样反对子君这种出走
）。
读完以后感觉居然完全不同。

可是认真看完第二遍，只觉得悲就一个字。
