书籍简介

《玛吉：街头女孩》出版于 1893 年，它对一个年轻漂亮女孩在纽约包厘街摔倒的残酷而赤裸裸的现实探索，以及对男性对女性不负责任的批判性描述，震惊了整个世界。 该系列中的其他五个故事都是安静的紧张和原始强度的故事。 从充满乡土气息的小镇生活，到都市的喧嚣，再到充满讽刺英雄主义色彩的战争故事，这些故事结构精妙，异常抒情，具有心理穿透力。 总的来说，这部精彩的作品集展示了斯蒂芬·克兰独特而令人惊叹的天才，并为美国优秀的作家之一做出了持久的见证。

Published in 1893, Maggie: A Girl of the Streets shocked a world unprepared for its grim and starkly realistic exploration of a pretty young girl’s fall on New York’s Bowery, and its critical depiction of the irresponsibility of men toward women. The five other stories in this collection are tales of quiet tension and raw intensity. From the local color of small-town life to the bustle of the city to war stories imbued with an ironic view of heroism, these stories are brilliantly constructed, extraordinarily lyrical, and psychologically penetrating. As a whole, this masterful collection demonstrates the unique and stunning genius of Stephen Crane and makes up an enduring testimony to one of America’s finest writers.

作者简介

斯蒂芬·克兰（Stephen Crane，1871-1900）热情、反复无常、自发，他疯狂地寻找可以写作的经历。 在雪城大学就读期间，他完成了《玛吉：街头女孩》的初稿，之后离开了学校成为纽约的一名自由作家。 1895年，这位从未见过战斗的年轻作家出版了《红色勇气勋章》，这本书非凡地揭示了一名内战新兵的思想和内心。 这本书使克兰名声大噪，并奠定了他作为战地记者的声誉。 作为一名记者，克莱恩前往希腊报道与土耳其的战争，并前往古巴报道美西战争。 他的海难经历催生了短篇小说《敞篷船》。 他因肺结核在德国巴登韦勒去世。

阿尔弗雷德·卡津（Alfred Kazin，1915-98 年）出生于布鲁克林，是一位多产的文学批评家和社会历史学家，他的声誉很早就因《本土论：现代美国散文文学的解读》（On Native Grounds：An Interpretation of Modern American Prose文学，1942 年）的出版而建立。 他的许多其他广受好评的书籍中包括他的回忆录三部曲：《城市里的行者》、《三十年代的起步》和《纽约犹太人》。 1996年荣获初届杜鲁门·卡波特文学批评终身成就奖。

汤姆·沃尔夫出生于弗吉尼亚州里士满，曾就读于华盛顿大学、李大学和耶鲁大学。 他的职业生涯始于斯普林菲尔德（马萨诸塞州）联盟的记者，并担任《华盛顿邮报》拉丁美洲记者，因其对古巴的报道而获得华盛顿报业协会外国新闻奖。 1962年，他成为《纽约先驱论坛报》的记者。 他的初本书《康提橘片流线婴儿》（The Kandy-Kolored Tangerine-Flake Streamline Baby，1965）确立了沃尔夫作为新新闻主义领军人物的地位。 随后的非小说类畅销书包括《The Pump House Gang》和《The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test》（均 1968 年）、《Radical Chic & Mau-Mauing the Flak Catchers》（1970 年）和《The Right Stuff》（1979 年），后者荣获美国非小说类图书奖。 他的小说包括《虚荣的篝火》(1987)、《完整的男人》(1998)、《我是夏洛特·西蒙斯》(2004) 和《重返血脉》(2012)。

Intense, volatile, and spontaneous, Stephen Crane (1871–1900) expended himself in a frenzied search for experiences about which to write. While attending Syracuse University, he finished the first draft of Maggie: A Girl of the Streets, leaving to become a freelance writer in New York. In 1895, the young author, who had never seen a battle, published The Red Badge of Courage, the extraordinary revelation of the mind and heart of a Civil War recruit. This book made Crane famous and established his reputation as a war correspondent. Pursuing a career as a journalist, Crane traveled to Greece to cover the war with Turkey and to Cuba to report on the Spanish-American War. His experience being shipwrecked led to the short story “The Open Boat.” He died of tuberculosis at Badenweiler, Germany.

Born in Brooklyn, Alfred Kazin (1915–98) was a prolific literary critic and social historian whose reputation was established early with the publication of On Native Grounds: An Interpretation of Modern American Prose Literature (1942). Among his many other acclaimed books are his trilogy of memoirs: A Walker in the City, Starting Out in the Thirties, and New York Jew. In 1996, he was awarded the first Truman Capote Lifetime Achievement Award in Literary Criticism.

Tom Wolfe was born in Richmond, and was educated at Washington and Lee and Yale universities. He began his career as a reporter on the Springfield (Massachusetts) Union and served as the Washington Post’s Latin American correspondent, winning the Washington Newspaper Guild’s foreign news prize for his coverage of Cuba. In 1962, he became a reporter for the New York Herald-Tribune. His first book, The Kandy-Kolored Tangerine-Flake Streamline Baby (1965), established Wolfe as a leading figure in what became known as New Journalism. Subsequent nonfiction bestsellers include The Pump House Gang and The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test (both 1968), Radical Chic & Mau-Mauing the Flak Catchers (1970) and The Right Stuff (1979), which won the American Book Award for Nonfiction. His novels include The Bonfire of the Vanities (1987), A Man in Full (1998), I Am Charlotte Simmons (2004), and Back to Blood (2012).
