为什么值得读
- 展现波浪、写作与追求美好生活的交织
- 叙述引人入胜令人捧卷难释
- 兼具类似瓦尔登湖般的精神共鸣
冲浪表面上只是一项运动。但在圈内人眼中，它完全是另一种存在：一种美丽的沉迷、一门严苛的学问、一种带有道德风险的消遣、一种生活方式。在加利福尼亚和夏威夷长大的 Finnegan 自幼便开始冲浪。他追逐着世界各地的海浪，多年来在南太平洋、澳大利亚、亚洲和非洲之间流浪。他曾是个书卷气的少年，后又蜕变成极具冒险精神的青年，最终成为一名作家兼战地记者。《Barbarian Days》带我们深入鲜为人知的世界，其中一些其实就在我们眼皮底下——就在纽约和旧金山的海边

威廉·芬尼根（William Finnegan）的《蛮荒岁月：冲浪生活》（Barbarian Days: A Surfing Life）。一本描写海浪、爱情、写作以及好好生活的绝美之作。作为一名冲浪手、滑雪者、山地车手以及骨子里的冒险狂，这本书带给我的触动就像《瓦尔登湖》（Walden Pond）……
Barbarian Days: A Surfing Life by William Finnegan A beautiful book about waves, love, writing, and living a good life. As a surfer, skier, mountain biker, and overall risk taker, this book affected me in the same way "Walden Pond"…
……萨波尔斯基的《灵长类回忆录》（A Primate's Memoir），别用走的，赶紧冲去最近的书店或者打开 Kindle 买一本。这毫无疑问是我读过的最好的书之一。强烈推荐给喜欢芬尼根《蛮荒岁月》（Barbarian Days）的读者。
…Sapolsky's A Primate's Memoir, do not walk, run to your nearest bookstore or Kindle and grab a copy. It is without a doubt one of the best books I have ever read. Highly recommended for fans of Finnegan's Barbarian Days.
+1 芬尼根。我很喜欢并推荐他那本写自己对冲浪痴迷的普利策奖回忆录——《蛮荒岁月》（Barbarian Days）。https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18693910-barbarian-days
+1 on Finnegan. I enjoyed and recommend his Pulitzer-winning memoir about his surfing obsession - Barbarian Days. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18693910-barbarian-days
……关于原子弹和奥本海默的权威著作。我还读了大卫·E·霍夫曼的《死手》（The Dead Hand），我觉得那是关于后来的军备竞赛和冷战的绝佳续篇。还有威廉·芬尼根的《蛮荒岁月》（Barbarian Days）。在这本书之前，我对冲浪一无所知也根本不关心。但一拿起来读我就放不下了。听说有声书很棒，我可能还会再去重温一遍……
…the definitive book about the atomic bomb and Oppenheimer. I also read The Dead Hand by David E. Hoffman and I think that was a pretty good follow up about the arms race and Cold War that came after. - Barbarian Days by William Finnegan. I knew nothing and cared little about surfing before this book. I couldn’t put it down after I picked it up though. I’ve heard the audiobook is great so I might just read it again…

冲浪一定要去，但别看那部电影了——去读威廉·芬尼根的《蛮荒岁月》（Barbarian Days）吧，它涵盖了冲浪、新闻纪实以及种族隔离时期的南非，而不是美式翻拍版那一套。哦对了，它还拿了普利策奖。
Definitely go surfing, but forget the movie - read Barbarian Days by William Finnegan, it checks the boxes for surfing, journalism, and apartheid South Africa instead of the American reboot. Oh, it won a Pulitzer Prize too.
