1973 年,Paul Theroux 踏上了一场为期四个月的火车之旅,从英国出发,横贯欧洲、中东和东南亚。在 The Great Railway Bazaar 中,他以鲜活生动的细节和深刻透彻的洞察力,记录了这场盛大的洲际之旅中无数引人入胜的趣闻、冒险与相遇。

Hacker News 上怎么说

  • 塞鲁是我最喜欢的旅行作家。这篇文章里提到的所有书都可以闭眼入,不过《大铁路市集》是我接触他那种旅行写作风格的入门作,我觉得这是一个很好的起点。他所有的火车旅行书在体裁上都很相似(这是一件好事)。他略去了所有关于……的讨论

    Theroux is my favorite travel writer. Easy to recommend all the books mentioned in this article, though The Great Railway Bazaar was my introduction to his way of writing about travel, and I think it's a good place to start. All his train travel books are pretty similar in format (that's a good thing). He skips any discussion…

  • ……搞笑的是,他们没有通过客服电话或邮件来解决这事,反而好像非得跟 JetBlue 的 CEO 喝着咖啡来聊。到这儿,这个点子就已经从保罗·塞鲁(《大铁路市集》之类)的画风偏向茱莉亚·艾莉森(Julia Allison)的网红名媛路线了。

    …funny bit is that rather than arranging this over the phone/email with a customer rep, they apparently need to discuss it over coffee with JetBlue's CEO. This is where the idea moves from Paul Theroux ("Great Railway Bazaar" etc) territory into Julia Allison land.

  • 作家保罗·塞鲁基本上把这趟旅程跑了两次,两次相隔了数十年。分别记录在他的《大铁路市集》和《幽灵列车开往东方》两本书中。

    Writer Paul Theroux has made essentially this trip twice now, decades apart. Chronicled in his books THE GREAT RAILWAY BAZAAR and GHOST TRAIN TO THE EASTERN STAR.

  • 我觉得这其实是在为 Folio Society 刚刚再版的《老巴塔哥尼亚快线》打广告,如果你想花 100 美元买一本装帧精美的书的话。我猜他聊《大铁路市集》是因为在他心目中这本书比《老巴塔哥尼亚快线》更具开创性。我也才刚知道保罗是路易斯(Louis)的父亲。我以前总好奇贾斯汀(Justin)和路易斯是不是亲戚,但不知为何从没想过保罗。

    I think it is actually a plug for The Old Patagonian Express, which the folio society just reissued, if you'd like to buy a nicely bound book for $100. I suppose he talked about The Great Railway Bazaar because it is more seminal in his mind than the Old Patagonian Express. I also never realized Paul is the father of Louis. I often wondered if Justin was related to Louis, but never Paul for some reason.

  • 挺有趣的一篇短文,完全出乎我的意料。看起来有点像是在给《大铁路市集》这本书打广告,对我来说,阅读它来了解那个逝去的时代应该挺有意思的。得去看看能不能在本地图书馆里借到它。

    Interesting little article and not what I expected. Seems to be a bit of a plug for book "The Great Railway Bazaar', which to me would be an interesting read of a bygone era. Will need to see if I can find it in one of the local libraries.
