内容概要
肯尼思•格雷厄姆是著名的童话作家。《柳林风声》的基础是1907年他写给儿子的一扎信。本书于1908年出版,被誉为英国散文体作品的典范。除《柳林风声》外,他还留下两本书:《黄金时代》和《做梦的日子》,深受英美不同年龄的人喜爱,所以本书最后也收录了这2个故事。
作者简介
肯尼思·格雷厄姆出生在苏格兰的爱丁堡,5岁丧母,父亲不久也去世了,他们几个兄弟由亲戚抚养。他喜爱文学,用晚上和假日的时间写作。业余时间,肯尼思还喜欢研究自然,这正好为他后来写这部以动物为主角的童话准备了丰富的材料。

章节摘录
"I like your clothes awfully, old chap," he remarked after somehalf an hour or so had passed. "I'm going to get a black velvetsmoking-suit myself some day, as soon as I can afford it." "I beg your pardon," said the Mole, pulling himself together withan effort. "Youmustthink me very rude; but all this is so new to me.So - this - is - a - River!" "The River," corrected the Rat. "And you really live by the river? What a jolly life!" "By it and with it and on it and in it," said the Rat. "It's brother andsister to me, and aunts and company, and food and drink, and(naturally) washing. It's my world, and I don't want any other. Whatit hasn't got is not worth having, and what it doesn't know is notworth knowing. Lord! the times we've had together! Whether inwinter or summer, spring or autumn, it's always got its fun and itsexcitements. When the floods are on in February, and my cellars andbasement are brimming with drink that's no good to me, and thebrown water runs by my best bedroom window; or again when it alldrops away and shows patches of mud that smells like plum-cake,and the rushes and weed clog the channels, and I can potter aboutdry-shod over most of the bed of it and fred fresh food to eat, andthings careless people have dropped out of boats!" "But isn't it a bit dull at times?" the Mole ventured to ask. "Justyou and the river, and no one else to pass a word with?" "No one else to - well, I mustn't be hard on you," said the Rat withforbearance. "You're new to it, and of course you don't know. Thebank is so crowded nowadays that many people are moving awayaltogether. Oh no, it isn't what it used to be, at all.
