“Ackroyd is like a literary spiritualist who summons up thevoices of the dead and encourages them to possess his writing….[ Poe ] is as short and sharp as a flick-knife.” – Daily Telegraph “Ackroyd reveals a man ahead of his time, an extraordinarygenius…” – Daily Express “[a] deft, lively summary” – The Spectator “Ackroyd…makes the reader want to re-read Poe, and indeed to readmore of Ackroyd on Poe.” – Scotland on Sunday “Poe’s brilliant, erratic, abbreviated career stands to gain ratherthan lose from the form of brief life patented by Ackroyd. A shortbiography is not a long one shrunk. Instead of patientlyaccumulated details, emotional complexity and architecturalshaping, it operates by lightening strikes, atmospheric colouring,impressionistic techniques of concision and suggestion.” – Observer “With an adept ventriloquism Ackroyd weaves together contemporarytestimony with his own crisp narrative…a vivid recreation of thelife and sensibility that lay behi

SPEAK, MEMORY(ISBN=9780679723394)
The late Vladimir Nabokov always did things his way, andhis classic autobiography is no exception. No dry recital of dates,names, and addresses for this linguistic magician--instead, Speak, Memory is a succession of lapidary episodes, in whichthe factoids play second fiddle to the development of Nabokov'ssensibility. There is, to be sure, an impressionistic whirl throughthe author's family history (including a gallery of Tartar princesand fin-de-siècle oddities). And Nabokov's account of his tenure atSt. Petersburg's famous Tenishev School--where he counted Osip Mandelstam among hisschoolmates--offers a lovely glimpse into the heart of Russia'ssilver age. Still, Nabokov is much too artful an autobiographer topresent Speak, Memory as a slice of reality--a word, by theway, that he insisted must always be surrounded by quotationmarks.

NATHAN BEDFORD FORREST(ISBN=9780679748304) 英文原版
Nathan Bedford Forrest was the only soldier to rise from therank of private to general during the U.S. Civil War. At once "asoft-spoken gentleman of marked placidity and an overbearing bullyof homicidal wrath," Forrest is best remembered for the combinationof brilliant military leadership and flamboyant bravery that drovehis Confederate cavalry troops from victory to victory on thebattlefield. His subordinates feared him (he shot those who turnedtail), as did his enemies (he rarely lost a fight). General Shermanonce said that Forrest must be "hunted down and killed if it costs10,000 lives and bankrupts the [national] treasury." Detractorspoint out that Forrest never has been exonerated from the FortPillow massacre, in which many Union soldiers, most of them black,were slaughtered after attempting to surrender. Following the war,he went on to found the Ku Klux Klan. Late in life, however,Forrest disavowed racial hatred and called for black politicaladvancement. Author Jack Hurst has written the essentia

STORY OF MY LIFE, THE(ISBN=9780553213874)
As a young girl Keller was obstinate, prone to fits of violence,and seething with rage at her inability to express herself. But atthe age of 7 this wild child was transformed when, at the urging ofAlexander Graham Bell, Anne Sullivan became her teacher, an eventshe declares "the most important day I remember in all my life."(Sullivan herself had once been blind, but partially recovered hersight after a series of operations.) In a memorable passage, Kellerwrites of the day "Teacher" led her to a stream and repeatedlyspelled out the letters w-a-t-e-r on one of her hands whilepouring water over the other. This method proved a revelation:"That living world awakened my soul, gave it light, hope, joy, setit free! There were barriers still, it is true, but barriers thatcould in time be swept away." And, indeed, most of them were.

And the myths surrounding Plath have only been intensifiedby the strong grip her estate--managed by Hughes and his sister,Olwyn--had over the release of her work. Yet Plath kept journalsfrom the age of 11 until her death at 30.
