在线阅读本书Book DescriptionStanley Yelnats is under a curse. A curse that began with his no-good-dirty-rotten-pig-stealing-great-great-grandfather and has since followed generations of Yelnats. Now Stanley has been unjustly sent to a boys' detention center, Camp Green Lake, where the warden makes the boys "build character" by spending all day, every day, digging holes: five feet wide and five feet deep. It doesn't take long for Stanley to realize there's more than character improvement going on at Camp Green Lake. The boys are digging holes because the warden is looking for something. Stanley tries to dig up the truth in this inventive and darkly humorous tale of crime and punishment--and redemption.Amazon.com"If you take a bad boy and make him dig a hole every day in the hot sun, it will turn him into a good boy." Such is the reigning philosophy at Camp Green Lake, a juvenile detention facility where there is no lake, and there are no happy campers. In place of what used to be "the largest lake in Texas" is now a dry, flat, sunburned wasteland, pocked with countless identical holes dug by boys improving their character. Stanley Yelnats, of palindromic name and ill-fated pedigree, has landed at Camp Green Lake because it seemed a better option than jail. No matter that his conviction was all a case of mistaken identity, the Yelnats family has become accustomed to a long history of bad luck, thanks to their "no-good-dirty-rotten-pig-stealing-great-great-grandfather!" Despite his innocence, Stanley is quickly enmeshed in the Camp Green Lake routine: rising before dawn to dig a hole five feet deep and five feet in diameter; learning how to get along with the Lord of the Flies-styled pack of boys in Group D; and fearing the warden, who paints her fingernails with rattlesnake venom. But when Stanley realizes that the boys may not just be digging to build character--that in fact the warden is seeking something specific--the plot gets as thick as the irony.It's a strange story, but strangely compelling and lovely too. Louis Sachar uses poker-faced understatement to create a bizarre but believable landscape--a place where Major Major Major Major of Catch-22 would feel right at home. But while there is humor and absurdity here, there is also a deep understanding of friendship and a searing compassion for society's underdogs. As Stanley unknowingly begins to fulfill his destiny--the dual plots coming together to reveal that fate has big plans in store--we can't help but cheer for the good guys, and all the Yelnats everywhere. (Ages 10 and older) --Brangien Davis Amazon.co.uk ReviewI'm not going to run away," Stanley said. "Good thinking, " said Mr Sir. "Nobody runs away from here. We don't need a fence. Know why? Because we've got the only water for a hundred miles. You want to run away? You'll be buzzard food in three days." Stanley could see some kids dressed in orange and carrying shovels dragging themselves towards the tents. "You thirsty?" asked Mr Sir. "Yes, Mr Sir," Stanley said gratefully. "Well, you better get used to it. You're going to be thirsty for the next eighteen months."If you are looking for a truly remarkable novel, something to get your teeth into, something to make you think, and something to make you feel that you have just touched real class, then look no further than Louis Sachar's extraordinary, award-winning novel Holes.Camp Greenlake is a place for bad boys, where the belief is: "if you take a bad boy and make him dig a hole every day in the hot sun, it will turn him into a good boy." When Stanley Yelnats, accused and found guilty of a crime he did not commit, is sent to Camp Greenlake he really doesn't think it can be so bad. Stanley and his family try to pretend that he is just going away to camp like the rich kids do, and he promises to write to them every day. But the harsh realities of the camp, and the evil Warden with her lizard-venom impregnated fingernails with her own reasons for making the boys in her charge dig so many holes, sometimes make dying seem like a great idea. When Stanley leaves the camp to go in search of his friend Zero, their journey towards freedom becomes a battle with hunger, thirst and heat in the shadow of Big Thumb--a mountain so entwined in Stanley's own family history that he knows if they can reach it they will somehow find salvation.A complex story, riddled with the harsh imagery and barren despair, Holes is a perceptive and intricate homage to family and friendship which never shies away from the harshest of realities yet injects the story of a seemingly hopeless boy with a sly, sideways humour that crackles against the backdrop of the arid wastelands of the desert. An absolute must for anyone, young or old, who relishes an intelligent, courageous and dynamic read. (Age 11 and over) --Susan Harrison From Publishers WeeklyPW's starred review of the 1999 Newbery Medal winner described it as a "dazzling blend of social commentary, tall tale and magic realism." Ages 10-up. (May) From School Library JournalGrade 5-8-Stanley Yelnats IV has been wrongly accused of stealing a famous baseball player's valued sneakers and is sent to Camp Green Lake, a juvenile detention home where the boys dig holes, five feet deep by five feet across, in the miserable Texas heat. It's just one more piece of bad luck that's befallen Stanley's family for generations as a result of the infamous curse of Madame Zeroni. Overweight Stanley, his hands bloodied from digging, figures that at the end of his sentence, he'll "...either be in great physical condition or else dead." Overcome by the useless work and his own feelings of futility, fellow inmate Zero runs away into the arid, desolate surroundings and Stanley, acting on impulse, embarks on a risky mission to save him. He unwittingly lays Madame Zeroni's curse to rest, finds buried treasure, survives yellow-spotted lizards, and gains wisdom and inner strength from the quirky turns of fate. In the almost mystical progress of their ascent of the rock edifice known as "Big Thumb," they discover their own invaluable worth and unwavering friendship. Each of the boys is painted as a distinct individual through Sachar's deftly chosen words. The author's ability to knit Stanley and Zero's compelling story in and out of a history of intriguing ancestors is captivating. Stanley's wit, integrity, faith, and wistful innocence will charm readers. A multitude of colorful characters coupled with the skillful braiding of ethnic folklore, American legend, and contemporary issues is a brilliant achievement. There is no question, kids will love Holes. Alison Follos, North Country School, Lake Placid, NYBook Dimension length: (cm)19.7 width:(cm)12.8
《远征的呼唤:失落文明的遗迹与探险家的足迹》 内容概要 本书并非关注个体命运的幽微或特定场域的封闭,而是聚焦于人类历史上那些宏大而磅礴的“远征”叙事。它深入探讨了探险家们如何面对未知的地理、文化和精神挑战,并记录了他们绘制世界版图、挑战自然极限的史诗性旅程。全书分为四个部分,层层递进地展现了探险精神的演变、驱动力及其对现代世界的深远影响。 第一部分:蛮荒之地的引力——早期探险的动机与艰辛 本部分将考察人类对未知地域的原始渴望。从古老文明中零星的航海记录和地理志中,我们可以窥见早期探险家们朴素的求知欲和生存需求。我们详细分析了早期探险的几种核心驱动力:对稀有资源(如香料、丝绸、贵金属)的追逐,以及宗教信仰驱动下的“朝圣”之旅。 重点案例分析将集中于那些在极度缺乏现代导航技术的条件下完成的壮举。例如,早期波利尼西亚航海家如何仅凭星象和洋流在浩瀚太平洋上定位,他们的知识体系是多么精妙而系统。又如,中世纪欧洲朝圣者和商队穿越撒哈拉沙漠的生存哲学——这不是简单的路线规划,而是一种与极端环境共存的智慧。我们将细致描述他们所依赖的工具、图腾、口头传统,以及失败的代价。失败往往是沉默的,是地理学知识库中被抹去的一页,但这些失踪的探险队恰恰构成了早期探险史的底色。 本部分特别关注探险中的“信息黑箱”现象。在信息流通极其缓慢的时代,一位探险家带回的信息往往被垄断或扭曲,成为权力斗争的筹码。我们考察了早期地图绘制中的“想象性地理学”,即当真实信息缺失时,人类心智如何用神话、传说和愿望来填补空白,创造出奇异的动物和富饶的黄金国度。 第二部分:科学的罗盘与帝国的影子——地理大发现时代的重构 地理大发现(Age of Exploration)是人类历史上的一个转折点。本部分将避开传统的英雄叙事,转而从技术、经济和意识形态三个维度解构这一时期的远征活动。 技术革新: 重点分析了卡拉维尔帆船(Caravel)、先进的象限仪和星盘如何从根本上改变了远洋航行的可行性。这些工具不仅仅是技术,更是新知识体系的具象化,它们使得“绕过已知”成为可能。我们详尽对比了早期绘图师如何将新采集的经纬度数据融入到旧有的托勒密体系中,以及这个融合过程中的理论冲突。 经济驱动: 探讨了重商主义如何将远征活动从个人冒险转化为国家战略。远征队不再仅仅是为了寻找新土地,更是为了建立贸易站、开辟垄断航线。我们分析了早期特许公司的运作模式,以及探险家如何成为资本扩张的前哨。 意识形态的构建: 这一时期的探险往往与“文明使命”的概念纠缠不清。本节将审视探险家们如何将“发现”行为合理化,构建起一套新的世界秩序叙事。这包括对“未知世界”的标签化处理,以及随之而来的对原住民文化和知识的系统性贬低或选择性吸收。探险家的日记和信件是研究这种双重标准的绝佳文本。 第三部分:极地与深渊——十九世纪的极限挑战与知识的专业化 随着世界主要陆地轮廓的确定,探险的焦点转向了地球上最后的“空白地带”:南极、北极的冰盖之下,以及海洋的最深处。本部分的核心议题是“极限环境下的科学探究”。 极地竞赛的内在逻辑: 南北极的探险不再仅仅是关于到达地理极点,而是演变成了一场关于国家意志和个人耐力的较量。我们考察了探险家们如何应对极端低温、幽闭恐惧症和长期孤立对人类心智的影响。对于这些探险的记录,我们侧重于对生理和心理临界点的细致描摹,例如,如何用有限的资源维持团队的纪律和士气,以及在漫长的极夜中如何对抗“感觉剥夺”。 深海的秘密: 伴随着深海考察船的出现,探险的战场转移到了水下。本节介绍了早期潜水钟和机械臂的原始设计,以及查尔斯·汤普森等早期海洋生物学家如何在船上建立临时实验室,研究那些在阳光完全无法穿透的水域中生存的奇特生物。这些考察活动,标志着探险活动开始向高度专业化的科学研究转型。 第四部分:超越界限——现代探险的哲学转向与数字遗产 进入二十世纪,传统的地理探险范式逐渐瓦解,取而代之的是对“内在景观”和“生态系统”的探索。 人类学与生态学的交汇: 现代探险家,如那些深入亚马逊雨林或喜马拉雅偏远山区的考察队,他们的目标不再是绘制地图,而是记录正在消逝的文化和生物多样性。本部分探讨了这些探险活动如何从纯粹的“发现”转向了“记录”与“保护”。我们分析了人类学家如何在不破坏当地文化的前提下,与其建立信任,并采集口述历史和民族志资料的过程。 数字时代的遗产: 现代探险活动与信息技术的结合,使得探险的结果以前所未有的速度和广度传播。然而,这种即时性也带来了新的挑战:如何平衡“现场体验的真实性”与“数字媒介的建构性”?我们考察了现代探险家如何使用高清摄影、无人机测绘和地理信息系统(GIS)来记录他们的发现,以及这些数据如何被用于气候变化模型和生物地理学的研究。 结论:永恒的驱动力 全书的尾声将回归探险精神本身。它探讨了在卫星地图和全球定位系统普及的今天,人类为何仍需要将自己置于不确定的境地。探险不再是对未知空间的征服,而逐渐演化为对人类自身适应能力的再确认,是对全球化时代中“真实距离”和“未被驯化之地”的缅怀与追寻。这是一部关于人类如何通过行走和观察,不断定义和扩展其认知边界的宏大史诗。

作为一本经过时间检验的经典之作,其思想的深度和广度是毋庸置疑的。我特别欣赏作者处理复杂主题时的那种克制与精准,他没有过度渲染或说教,而是巧妙地将宏大的哲学思考融入到具体的情节和生活场景中。每一次重读,我都会有新的领悟,仿佛这本书的内容会随着我自身阅历的增长而展现出新的层次。这才是真正耐得住反复品味的“好酒”,初读是故事,再读是人生,三读则是哲理。我特别关注那些看似微不足道的对话和环境描写,因为它们往往蕴含着最深刻的隐喻。这本书的文本密度非常高,每一个词语的选择似乎都经过了千锤百炼,没有一个多余的字,这种精炼的力量是极其震撼人心的。我期待着未来还能继续从中汲取养分。

从文学史的角度来看,这本书无疑占据了一个极其重要的位置,它对后世的创作风格产生了深远的影响,这一点从它能推出十周年纪念版就能侧面印证。它的叙事结构,在那个年代是具有革命性的,打破了传统的线性叙事,采用了更加复杂和多维度的视角来构建故事的全貌。这种叙事上的创新,在当时无疑是极具勇气的,也展现了作者超越时代的文学视野。对于任何一个对文学发展脉络感兴趣的读者来说,阅读它就像是打开了一扇通往文学变革核心的窗户。它不仅仅是一个独立的故事,它更是一份重要的文本样本,展示了文学如何突破自身的边界,探讨更深层次的人类经验。我能感受到那种文字背后的磅礴野心,以及作者试图通过文字构建一个完整而自洽的“宇宙”的努力。这种里程碑式的作品,值得我们反复研读和致敬。

这本书的排版和字体选择简直是为深度阅读量身定制的,每一个字都像是经过精心雕琢,清晰又不失古朴。我个人对阅读时的字体大小和行距非常敏感,过密或者过疏都会让我阅读速度下降,并且容易产生阅读疲劳。然而,这本书的字号恰到好处,行间距宽松适中,即便是长时间沉浸其中,眼睛也不会感到明显的酸涩。而且,页边距的设计也十分人性化,留出了足够的空白区域供我随时做笔记和标记重点,这对于我这种喜欢做批注的读者来说,简直是太友好了。很多时候,阅读体验的好坏,很大程度上取决于这些“隐形”的细节,它们默默地支撑着你进入故事的深处。这本书无疑在这些技术层面做到了极致,让人可以完全沉浸在作者构建的世界里,而不用被那些不舒服的排版干扰。这种无缝衔接的阅读体验,让我能够更顺畅地跟上作者的思路,体会到文字背后更深层次的含义。

我记得第一次翻开这本书时,那种扑面而来的氛围感就彻底抓住了我,它仿佛自带一种魔力,能瞬间将你从现实世界的喧嚣中抽离出来。那种独特的叙事节奏,时而如涓涓细流般细腻,时而又像暴风骤雨般猛烈,让人完全无法预料下一步的走向。作者对人物心理的刻画入木三分,每一个角色的动机和挣扎都被描绘得淋漓尽致,甚至能让你在某个瞬间,清晰地感觉到自己与书中人物产生了某种奇妙的共鸣。我常常在阅读某个段落后停下来,久久地凝视着书页,思考着那些关于人性、关于选择的沉重议题。这种能引发深度思考的文本,才是真正伟大的文学作品所具备的特质。它不给你现成的答案,而是抛出问题,引导你去探索和寻找,这种被文字“挑战”的感觉,非常刺激和满足。

这本书的封面设计简直是艺术品,色彩的运用大胆而富有张力,一下子就能抓住我的眼球。特别是那个烫金的字体,在灯光下闪烁着低调而奢华的光芒,让人忍不住想立刻翻开它。内页的纸张质感也非常好,不是那种廉价的光滑纸,而是带着一点点粗粝的触感,握在手里沉甸甸的,完全是阅读经典作品该有的仪式感。我是一个非常注重书籍实体感的读者,对装帧设计有着近乎苛刻的要求,而这本特制的十周年纪念版,完全超出了我的预期。它不仅仅是一本书,更像是一件值得收藏的工艺品,摆在书架上都是一道亮丽的风景线。每一次拿起它,都感觉像是在与一位老朋友重逢,那种期待感是阅读电子书完全无法比拟的。这种用心打磨的细节,体现了出版方对作品的尊重,也让读者在阅读体验上得到了极大的升华。可以说,光是冲着这份精美的外表,就已经值回票价了。我甚至不太舍得用力翻开,生怕弄坏了这精美的装帧,这种矛盾的心情,也侧面证明了这版本的成功。
