一本與眾不同的寫魯迅的書

探析人生經歷中的眾多迷團
還原一個人性化的魯迅

他叫周樹人，他是一個普通人

一個身世坎坷、心境落寞、性格冷峻、且又看重感情、渴望愛情、深懷柔情的普通人

周樹人，1881年9月25日－1936年10月19日，字豫才。原名樟壽，字豫山、豫亭。以筆名魯迅聞名於世。浙江紹興人，20世紀中國重要作家，新文化運動的領導人、左翼文化運動的支持者。魯迅的作品包括雜文、短篇小說、評論、散文、翻譯作品，對於五四運動以後的中國文學產生了深刻的影響。

走讀魯迅：一代文學巨擘的十一個生命印記，……在那些老屋舊舍之中，隱藏著多少讓人唏噓感歎的故事啊！只有走進去、讀過去，才能品味魯迅那五味雜陳的內心世界。 紹興、人生之始、無可留連的故鄉、北京、“魯迅”誕生、兄弟失和、兩個“老虎尾巴”、“祝福”為誰而作、“魯迅師”與“廣平兄”、廈門、飛鴻遙繫兩地心、太陽、黑夜與月亮、廣州、大鐘樓上的孤獨宿客、奇怪的“官司”、哪一扇窗戶是他的家？上海、最後的歲月。

歷時十年走讀，行程逾萬公里，踏訪七城故地，解析性格成因，二百六十餘幅精彩圖。

只有當你真正瞭解了魯迅那特有的人生、瞭解了他所經受過的那些屈辱和艱辛，你才能真正讀懂他的內心，才能明白他在生命接近終點的時候為什麼會說出那樣驚世駭俗的話：“讓他們怨恨去，我也一個都不寬恕。”－－作者

孫中山先生自獻身中國革命以來，即與不少有識之士欲就管治之道向香港取經，為中國現代化尋求出路。究竟英國成功治理香港的訣竅何在，值得中國借鏡？

在這部資料詳盡、論據中肯的著作中，曾銳生博士探討被視為香港政府精英的政務官，如何令一百四十年前庸昧的初期殖民地政府，演變成二十世紀末最優秀的現代政體之一。

二次大戰後，香港政府成功融合中國傳統政治和現代英國公務員系統的精髓，把效率、誠信、公正、仁慈家長主義及不干預思想融為一體。香港因而取得空前發展，尤以工商與金融業成就顯著。中國對香港的「一國兩制」政策，部分原意是要確保香港成為中國特別行政區後，其卓越管治得到承傳，延續繁榮安定。

本書從歷史角度描述政務官的工作生涯和演變，從中透視特區政府如何維持並進一步提高管治成效。

Puzzled by signs warning you to “mind the gap” in the London Underground? Wondering what will be on your plate if you order “toad in the hole” in a London café? In Divided by a Common Language, Christopher Davies explains these expressions and discusses the many differences in pronunciation, spelling, and vocabulary between British and American English. He compares the customs, manners, and practical details of daily life in the United Kingdom and the United States, and American readers will enjoy his account of American culture as seen through an Englishman’s eyes. Davies tops it off with an amusing list of expressions that sound innocent enough in one country but make quite the opposite impression in the other. Two large glossaries help travelers translate from one variety of English to the other, and additional lists explain the distinctive words of Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa. Divided by a Common Language is the ideal travel companion for both British visitors to the U.S. and American visitors to the U.K. It is also the perfect book for Britons interested in American culture and Americans enjoying British novels, movies, and television at home.

《北島詩歌集》是詩人北島自８０年代末以來在中國大陸出版的第一本詩集。做為中國當代“朦朧派”詩歌的領袖，曾經獲得諾貝爾文學獎提名的北島在中國詩壇和文化界有著廣泛的影響力。詩集出版消息公布後，北京、上海等大中城市的書店裡，北島的詩集被滿懷期待的讀者搶購一空。經過了十多年的隔膜，熱愛北島詩歌的人們都希望讀到他的新詩作，也想進一步了解這位中國當代偉大詩人的思想現狀。

北島原名趙振開，１９４９年生於北京。１９７８年前後，他和詩人芒克創辦《今天》，成為朦朧詩歌的代表性詩人。１９８９年４月，北島離開祖國，先後在德國、挪威、瑞典、丹麥、荷蘭、法國、美國等國家居住。北島曾著有多種詩集，作品被譯成二十餘種文字，先後獲瑞典筆會文學獎、美國西部筆會中心自由寫作獎、古根海姆獎學金等，並被選為美國藝術文學院終身榮譽院士。

詩歌是詩人最完備的精神自傳，也是感受和獲知一位詩人真實的思想狀況的唯一途徑。《北島詩歌集》中收入了北島各個時期的代表性作品，其時間跨度是３０年，即從１９７２年到２００１年。北島是一代中國青年的精神領袖。他早期的詩歌中具有強烈的懷疑和叛逆精神，在他的詩歌中，人們見到的是一個內心充滿痛苦和不安，熱血激昂，具有社會責任感和正義感，正在努力擺脫黑暗，四處尋找光明的青年形像。面對中國七十年代“文革”前後紛亂荒誕的社會現實，他有時感覺到苦悶和迷惘，“一切都是命運／一切都是煙雲《一切》”，在他的成名代表作《回答》中，他寫出了充滿激憤唾棄和理想追尋的響亮詩句——“卑鄙是卑鄙者的通行証，高尚是高尚者的墓誌銘。”這兩句詩和另一位朦朧詩代表詩人顧城的“黑夜給了我黑色的眼睛／我卻用它來尋找光明”兩句成為了一代青年人的精神寫真。直到今天，這四行詩還是在中國當代青年中傳誦最廣，影響最大的新詩名句。
