Feast Days 評價

網友滿意度：



不論是在學生時期或開始工作後

我對語言一直都有難以言喻的嚮往~~

自英文的從國中啟蒙

能夠用其他語言的邏輯來思考事情

也是一件很有趣的一件事

跟一般人喜歡用吃吃喝喝出遊玩來打發時間

我更喜歡用書籍安靜的充實自己

所以特別跟大家推薦我目前在看的

Feast Days

非常好上手、條理分明

對於希望入門別太難的人很適合台中水晶店

而且這最大的成就感就是用新學的

語言查資料了XD

看自己key出之前完全不了解的文字或音

真的有滿滿的感動啊~~

希望推薦的這本書能夠讓大家都能

感受或得知識的喜悅!

一起讀書向前邁進吧!

商品訊息描述:

Intelligent and deeply felt, FEAST DAYS follows a young wife who relocates with her financier husband to S?o Paulo, where she encounters crime, protests, refugees, gentrification, and the collision of art and commerce, while confronting the crisis slowly building inside her own marriage.

Emma is a young woman who has just moved from New York to Brazil. She came for her husband’s career, with no job prospects of her own, a weak grasp of the language, and a deep ambivalence about having a child. Her early days in S?o Paulo are listless but privileged; she dines at high-end restaurants, tutors wealthy Brazilians in English, parses the Latin roots of words, and observes the city she now calls home.

As massive demonstrations against the government are breaking out across the country amid growing economic inequality, Emma begins to volunteer at a local church to assist refugees, and grows more deeply connected to the people she meets in the course of her days. Soon she is unable to resist the tug of the country’s political and social unrest, and as the country moves seemingly closer to a breaking point, so does Emma’s marriage, until she and her husband can no longer ignore the silent, tectonic shifts beneath the surface of their relationship.

With profound wisdom and humor, MacKenzie has written a sharply observed story of expatriate life, as well as a meditation on the hidden costs of modern living and how easily our belief systems can collapse around us.
