內容簡介
Part of Penguin's beautiful hardback "Clothbound Classics" series, designed by the award-winning Coralie Bickford-Smith, these delectable and collectible editions are bound in high-quality colourful, tactile cloth with foil stamped into the design. In Herman Melville's "Moby-Dick", Captain Ahab is an eerily compelling madman who focuses his distilled hatred and suffering (and that of generations before him) into the pursuit of a creature as vast, dangerous and unknowable as the sea itself. More than just a novel of adventure, this is a haunting social commentary populated with some of the most enduring characters in literature. Written with wonderfully redemptive humour, "Moby Dick" is a profound and timeless inquiry into character, faith and the nature of perception.

精彩書評
"A masterpiece" Guardian "A great book...a deep great artist"
—— D.H. Lawrence
"A wonderful delight"
—— Nathaniel Philbrick
"Moby Dick is my favourite novel, bar none. It works on so many levels. It taught me that you can have a top layer of narrative-like the seafaring story-and then below that all those wonderful, rich, symbolic things going on"
—— Clive Barker
"To convey an adequate idea of a book of such various merits as that which the author of Typee and Omoo has here placed before the reading public, is impossible in the scope of a review. High philosophy, liberal feeling, abstruse metaphysics popularly phrased, soaring speculation, a style as many-coloured as the theme, yet always good, and often admirable; fertile fancy, ingenious construction, playful learning, and an unusual power of enchaining the interest, and rising to the verge of the sublime, without overpassing that narrow boundary which plunges the ambitious penman into the ridiculous; all these are possessed by Herman Melville, and exemplified in these volumes"
——London Morning Advertiser, October 24 1851

Charles Dickens (1812-70) had his first, astounding success with his first novel The Pickwick Papers and never looked back. In an extraordinarily full life he wrote, campaigned and spoke on a huge range of issues, and was involved in many of the key aspects of Victorian life, by turns cajoling, moving and irritating. He completed fourteen full-length novels and volume after volume of journalism. Of all his many works, he called David Copperfield his 'favourite child'.

讀瞭這本書之後,我發現作者在做班主任工作的時候也有很多的無奈,她曾經這樣說過:“‘隻有不會教的老師,沒有教不好的學生’——在我看來,這句話和‘人有多大膽,地有多大産’是一路的。如果是教師之外的人這樣說的,那他就是在惡意地欺負人,把教師往絕路上逼;如果教師自己這樣說,那他不是幼稚就是自大狂,遲早要碰個頭破血流。我曾經屬於後一類。那時,我處於極度危險的境地。”看薛老師這些話,你能覺得這是一個真實的老師,她說的話就象是鄰居嘮傢常那樣真誠自然。對於書中她大膽、直率的言辭,我很欽佩,不是每個人都有這種膽識、思維的。她能把一件看似簡單慣常的事情剖析提頭頭是道,透過瞭錶象看到瞭它的內在根源。她有勇氣把一些不同與大傢都說的話寫在紙上,讓彆人看,雖然多數人心理或許也如她所想。但憑這一點兒,就讓人佩服至極。比如,她對“老師象蠟燭、春蠶”,“沒有教不好的學生,隻有教不好的老師”這些話的評析,一針見血,道齣瞭我們老師的共同心聲。之所以造就瞭她感說真話,敢於抵製一切不利於學生成長和進步的製度。因為薛老師的人生信念就是:缺乏真誠、理性和趣味的日子是不值得過的。教育教學中有瞭平衡愉悅的心態,正確的定位和良好的策略,纔能在飽滿熱情中,在正確策略中扶植學生嚮上?

印花紙質硬皮封麵。企鵝齣版社。古典作品係列。全本。已轉為現代英語,與原文試用的英雄雙行體一緻,閱讀無障礙。紙張非常厚實。目錄詳盡。正文5號字,印刷清晰,行間距大,每頁留白適度。書脊纔用辭書類的裝訂方式,結實耐翻,美中不足就是閱讀時得用點勁纔能攤開。正文後有簡要注釋,實話實說,有點雞肋。正文前有導語,介紹作傢生平及主要作品概述。
