內容簡介

John Dos Passos traveled widely in Europe, the Middle East, Mexico, and the United States, witnessing many of the tumultuous political, social, and cultural events of the early 20th century and recording his changing response to them. This volume collects the vibrant and insightful travel books and essays he wrote at the same time he was publishing his fictional masterpieces Three Soldiers, Manhattan Transfer, and U.S.A.

Rosinante to the Road Again (1922) is a vivid collection of essays on Spanish life, literature, and art that demonstrates Dos Passos' enduring fascination with a country he would repeatedly visit and write about. Orient Express (1927) records his 1921-22 journey through the Middle East, and contains provocative and haunting descriptions of the effects of the Greek-Turkish War; the Caucasus in the aftermath of Soviet conquest; Persia during the rise of Reza Khan; the creation of Iraq by the British; and a winter trip by camel caravan across the desert from Baghdad to Damascus. In All Countries (1934) collects pieces on Russia in the late 1920s, Mexico in the aftermath of Zapata, the troubled Spanish Republic, and strikes and protests in the United States, while articles that appeared in Journeys Between Wars (1938) examine the Popular Front in France and the Spanish Civil War.

Also included are A Pushcart at the Curb (1922), a cycle of poems inspired by his travels; nine political and literary essays written between 1916 and 1941, including his denunciation of the execution of his friend Jose Robles by Spanish Communists; and a selection of letters and diary entries from 1916 to 1920 that record his wartime service as an ambulance driver in France and Italy.

古人雲：“書中自有黃金屋，書中自有顔如玉。”可見，古人對讀書的情有獨鍾。其實，對於任何人而言，讀書最大的好處在於：它讓求知的人從中獲知，讓無知的人變得有知。讀史蒂芬?霍金的《時間簡史》和《果殼中的宇宙》，暢遊在粒子、生命和星體的處境中，感受智慧的光澤，猶如攀登高山一樣，瞬間眼前呈現齣仿佛九疊畫屏般的開闊視野。於是，便像李白在詩中所寫到的“廬山秀齣南鬥旁，屏風九疊雲錦張，影落明湖青黛光”。 對於坎坷麯摺的人生道路而言，讀書便是最佳的潤滑劑。麵對苦難，我們苦悶、彷徨、悲傷、絕望，甚至我們低下瞭曾經高貴驕傲的頭。然而我們可否想到過書籍可以給予我們希望和勇氣，將慰藉緩緩注入我們乾枯的心田，使黑暗的天空再現光芒？讀羅曼?羅蘭創作、傅雷先生翻譯的《名人傳》，讓我們從偉人的生涯中汲取生存的力量和戰鬥的勇氣，更讓我們明白：唯有真實的苦難，纔能驅除羅曼諦剋式幻想的苦難；唯有剋服苦難的悲劇，纔能幫助我們擔當起命運的磨難。讀海倫?凱勒一個個真實而感人肺腑的故事，感受遭受不濟命運的人所具備的自強不息和從容豁達，從而讓我們在並非一帆風順的人生道路上越走越勇，做命運真正的主宰者。在書籍的帶領下，我們不斷磨煉自己的意誌，而我們的心靈也將漸漸充實成熟。
