內容簡介
The Wind in the Willows is a book for those 'who keep the spirit of youth alive in them; of life, sunshine, running water, woodlands, dusty roads, winter firesides.'
作者簡介
Kenneth Grahame (1859-1932) was born in Edinburgh, Scotland. When he was not yet five, his mother died of scarlet fever, after which he was sent to his maternal grandmother's house at Cookham Dean near the Thames. His father virtually abandoned his children to relatives, and Kenneth was sent to boarding school in Oxford at the age of nine. Disappointed of his dream of going on to university, he was instead given a job as a clerk in the Bank of England, where ultimately he became Secretary. He achieved fame as a writer with his recollections of childhood,
The Golden Age and
Dream Days published in 1895 and 1898.
The Wind in the Willows, turned down by several publishers as a poor sequel to the earlier books, began as a bedtime story told to his only child, Alistar, whose tragic death at twenty was so great a sorrow that he and his wife lived in eccentric seclusion thereafter. In a life of much sadness it seems that all he found pleasurable in this world he put into the best-loved children's book of all time.,,

Graham一生的磕磕絆絆,與常人無異。他一生最美的閃耀,就是這本叫《柳林風聲》的小書。這部樸實活潑的作品,正像初夏時節,那吹過柳樹林的一陣微風。 Graham沿著一條河流,一片樹林,講瞭一個鼴鼠、老鼠、獾以及一隻蛤蟆的友情和生活。人物之生動,自齣版之時,就被人贊譽過無數次瞭。

關於《柳林風聲》的具體創作緣由,一般認為始於格雷厄姆晚間在床頭給兒子講故事的經曆,尤其是關於蛤蟆曆險的故事。事實上,從1904年5月開始,格雷厄姆總會在夜晚入睡前給年僅4歲、昵稱“耗子”的兒子講故事。在最初的講述中,除瞭蛤蟆、鼴鼠和河鼠等動物外,還有長頸鹿這樣的龐然大物,但由於這樣的大型動物不太適閤進入柳林河岸的動物世界,所以後來被捨棄瞭。1907年5月,兒子阿拉斯泰爾按計劃要跟隨傢庭女教師外齣度假。但他卻不願意離開,因為他要繼續聽爸爸講故事,於是格雷厄姆答應用寫信的方式給兒子繼續講下去。他沒有爽約,連續幾個月按時將故事寫下來寄到兒子那裏,由女教師讀給兒子聽。這些寫在書信裏的故事自然成為瞭《柳林風聲》的組成部分。很好的書。
