20 世纪 20 年代，世界上人均最富有的群体是 Oklahoma 的 Osage Nation 成员。在他们的土地下方发现石油后，Osage 人乘坐专职司机驾驶的汽车，修建豪宅，并送子女赴欧洲留学。然而，Osage 人随后开始接连惨遭杀害。一位名叫 Mollie Burkhart 的 Osage 女性的家族成为了首要目标。她的一位亲戚遭枪杀，另一位被毒死。而这仅仅是个开始，越来越多的 Osage 人在离奇的情形下丧命，许多敢于调查这些谋杀案的人自己也惨遭

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.
《花月杀手》里出场的人物包括年轻时的胡佛，它对胡佛的崛起刻画得相当不错。它本身也是一本极好的书，应该赶在即将上映的电影剧透之前先读一读……
Killers of the Flower Moon has a young Hoover in its cast of characters, and it does a pretty good job of describing his rise. It's also a fantastic book in its own right, which should be read before the incoming movie spoils it…
……不过非虚构作品确实改变了我。顺便说一句，你上面写的大部分/全部内容，非虚构作品也一样能有力地传达出来。像陈佩香（Chanrithy Him）的《When Broken Glass Floats》就极具冲击力。《花月杀手》也是如此。我怀疑任何涉及相同题材的虚构作品能否带来更大的震撼。这两本书本来都可以写成（并读作）小说，但知道这些事件都是真实发生过的，感觉就完全不一样了……
…changed by nonfiction, though. Incidentally, most/all of what you wrote above can be done as effectively with nonfiction. Books like When Broken Glass Floats by Chanrithy Him are extremely powerful. As was Killers of the Flower Moon. I doubt any works of fiction dealing with the same topics would be more powerful. Both of these books could have been written (and read) as fiction, but knowing the events were true makes a huge difference…
刚读完《The Wager》——历史非虚构类——和《花月杀手》是同一个作者。写得相当好——虽然不如《花月杀手》。我不会剧透任何你在前几页看不到的内容。《The Wager》是一艘 18 世纪初的英国军舰，因为遭遇恶劣天气而失事……
Just got done reading The Wager - historical nonfiction - same author as Killers of the Flower Moon. It's quite good - not as good as Killers of the Flower Moon. I won't spoil anything you won't learn from the first few pages. The Wager was a British naval ship in the early 1700s that was lost to inclement…
……看到一只漂亮的渡鸦，腿上系着粉色丝带。多亏了这本书，我现在知道它是伦敦塔里最老、最聪明的渡鸦之一——Merlina。很喜欢这本书，读起来相当有趣。*《花月杀手：奥色治族谋杀案与联邦调查局的诞生》，作者 David Grann - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/29496076-killers-of-the-... 起初白人偷了他们的土地，把他们赶到了一个鸟不拉屎的……
…saw some beautiful raven with pink ribbon on it's leg. Thanks to the book I know now it was one of the oldest and smartest raven in the Tower - Merlina. Likes this book a lot, quite interesting read. * Killers of the Flower Moon: The Osage Murders and the Birth of the FBI by David Grann - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/29496076-killers-of-the-... First white people stole their land and moved them to some shitty place in…
……《诡辩篇》（Sophistical Refutations）- 亚里士多德。像亚里士多德的所有著作一样，读的时候要抱有审慎态度，把它当作历史文献来看。不过，一部 2000 多年前的文献能写成这样，依然令人惊叹。*《花月杀手：奥色治族谋杀案与联邦调查局的诞生》- David Grann。跳过电影，直接看这本书吧。*《1491：前哥伦布时代美洲启示录》- Charles Mann。它挑战了人们普遍的误解……
…Sophistical Refutations - Aristotle. Like anything by Aristotle, read it with a grain of salt and as historical document. Still, it's always a wonder how a text like this can be over 2000 years old. * Killers of the Flower Moon: The Osage Murders and the Birth of the FBI - David Grann. Skip the movie and read this instead. * 1491: New Revelations of the Americas Before Columbus - Charles Mann. It challenges common misunderstandings…
