I've been reading The Lost City of Z by David Grann. Really enjoying it: * The Lost City of Z * http://www.amazon.com/Lost-City-Deadly-Obsession-Amazon/dp/0...
我推荐这本:大卫·格雷恩写的《迷失之城Z:亚马逊的致命执念》(2009)。“它讲述了英国探险家珀西·福塞特的故事,他在1925年与儿子在亚马逊寻找失落的古老……时神秘失踪。
I can recommend this one: The Lost City of Z: A Tale of Deadly Obsession in the Amazon (2009) by David Grann. "It tells the story of the British explorer Percy Fawcett who, in 1925, disappeared with his son in the Amazon while looking for an ancient…
David Attenborough 的《Life on Air》是我最喜欢的作品之一——是他本人亲自朗读的。David Grann 的任何书听起来都特别棒,不过我尤其喜欢《花月杀手》(Killers of the Flower Moon)和《迷失 Z 城》(Lost City of Z)。
Life on Air by David Attenborough is one of my favorites - it's narrated by the man himself. Any books by David Grann are great to listen to but I particularly enjoyed Killers of the Flower Moon and Lost City of Z.

我推荐读读穿越亚马逊的游记类纪实,比如《迷失之城Z》。热带雨林里能对人体造成恐怖伤害的害虫数量多到吓人,狂蝇还仅仅是其中一种。这真让我庆幸有高浓度避蚊胺(DEET)这样的现代产物。
I recommend reading accounts of traveling through the Amazon, like The Lost City of Z. The number of pests in rainforests that do horrifying things to the human body is astounding and the botflies are only one of them. Makes me thankful for modern conveniences like pure DEET.
……与谋杀》。调研做得很扎实,把相互矛盾的各种说法梳理串联得很好。读完之后我特意去查了作者,发现他还写过《花月杀手》和《迷失之城Z》,两本我都超喜欢!如果你喜欢《坚忍号》、《坚不可摧》或《荒野之境》这类的书,你一定会很中意这本。
…and Murder". It's very well researched and pieced together from conflicting accounts. After I was finished I decided to look up the author and found out he wrote "Killers of the Flower Moon" and "The Lost City of Z", both of which I really enjoyed! If you like books like Endurance, Unbroken, or A Land So Strange, you'll dig this one.
