内容简介

Stanley Yelnats is under a curse. A curse that began with his no-good-dirty-rotten-pig-stealing-great-great-grandfather and has since followed generations of Yelnats. Now Stanley has been unjustly sent to a boys' detention center, Camp Green Lake, where the warden makes the boys "build character" by spending all day, every day, digging holes: five feet wide and five feet deep. It doesn't take long for Stanley to realize there's more than character improvement going on at Camp Green Lake. The boys are digging holes because the warden is looking for something. Stanley tries to dig up the truth in this inventive and darkly humorous tale of crime and punishment—and redemption.

　　少年叶那茨·斯坦利被人误指偷窃了一双球鞋，被迫进入绿营湖基地接受十八个月的惩罚，在那里遇到了许多和他一样在接受惩罚的少年，而挖洞就是他们每天的任务。在绿营湖的日子里，他结交到一个好朋友，尽管他们的祖先之间曾有过仇恨，两人还是同甘共苦，一起逃离，一起流浪。历经艰难后的他们究竟会受到怎样的对待呢？而深藏在洞中的巨大秘密又是什么呢？

精彩书评

Stanley Yelnats IV has been wrongly accused of stealing a famous baseball player's valued sneakers and is sent to Camp Green Lake, a juvenile detention home where the boys dig holes, five feet deep by five feet across, in the miserable Texas heat. It's just one more piece of bad luck that's befallen Stanley's family for generations as a result of the infamous curse of Madame Zeroni. Overweight Stanley, his hands bloodied from digging, figures that at the end of his sentence, he'll "...either be in great physical condition or else dead." Overcome by the useless work and his own feelings of futility, fellow inmate Zero runs away into the arid, desolate surroundings and Stanley, acting on impulse, embarks on a risky mission to save him. He unwittingly lays Madame Zeroni's curse to rest, finds buried treasure, survives yellow-spotted lizards, and gains wisdom and inner strength from the quirky turns of fate. In the almost mystical progress of their ascent of the rock edifice known as "Big Thumb," they discover their own invaluable worth and unwavering friendship. Each of the boys is painted as a distinct individual through Sachar's deftly chosen words. The author's ability to knit Stanley and Zero's compelling story in and out of a history of intriguing ancestors is captivating. Stanley's wit, integrity, faith, and wistful innocence will charm readers. A multitude of colorful characters coupled with the skillful braiding of ethnic folklore, American legend, and contemporary issues is a brilliant achievement. There is no question, kids will love Holes.

"A dazzling blend of social commentary, tall tale and magic realism."

前言/序言

Stanley Yelnats was the only passenger on the bus, not counting the driver or the guard. The guard sat next to the driver with his seat turned around facing Stanley. A rifle lay across his lap.
Stanley was sitting about ten rows back, handcuffed to his armrest. His backpack lay on the seat next to him. It contained his toothbrush, toothpaste, and a box of stationary his mother had given him. He’d promised to write to her at least once a week.
He looked out the window, although there wasn’t much to see—mostly fields of hay and cotton. He was on a long bus ride to nowhere. The bus wasn’t air-conditioned, and the hot heavy air was almost as stifling as the handcuffs.
Stanley and his parents had tried to pretend that he was just going away to camp for a while, just like rich kids do. When Stanley was younger he used to play with stuffed animals, and pretend the animals were at camp. Camp Fun and Games he called it. Sometimes he’d have them play soccer with a marble. Other times they’d run an obstacle course, or go bungee jumping off a table, tied to broken rubber bands. Now Stanley tried to pretend he was going to Camp Fun and Games. Maybe he’d make some friends, he thought. At least he’d get to swim in the lake.
He didn’t have any friends at home. He was overweight and the kids at his middle school often teased him about his size. Even his teachers sometimes made cruel comments without realizing it. On his last day of school, his math teacher, Mrs. Bell, taught ratios. As an example, she chose the heaviest kid in the class and the lightest kid in the class, and had them weigh themselves. Stanley weighed three times as much as the other boy. Mrs. Bell wrote the ratio on the board, 3:1, unaware of how much embarrassment she had caused both of them.
Stanley was arrested later that day.
He looked at the guard who sat slumped in his seat and wondered of he had fallen asleep. The guard was wearing sunglasses, so Stanley couldn’t see his eyes.
Stanley was not a bad kid. He was innocent of the crime for which he was convicted. He’d just been in the wrong place at the wrong time.
It was all because of his no-good-dirty-rotten-pig-stealing-great-great-grandfather!
He smiled. It was a family joke. Whenever anything went wrong, they always blamed Stanley’s no-good-dirty-rotten-pig-stealing-great-great-grandfather!
Supposedly, he had a great-great-grandfather who had stolen a pig from one-legged Gypsy, and she put a curse on him and all his descendants. Stanley and his parents didn’t believe in curses, of course, but whenever anything went wrong, it felt good to be able to blame someone.
Things went wrong a lot. They always seemed to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.
He looked out the window at the vast emptiness. He watched the rise and fall of a telephone wire. In his mind he could hear his father’s gruff voice softly singing to him.
“If only, if only,” the woodpecker sighs,
“The bark on the tree was just a little bit softer.”
“While the wolf waits below, hungry and lonely,
He cries to the moo–oo–oon,
“If only, if only.”
It was a song his father used to sing to him. The melody was sweet and sad, but Stanley’s favorite part was when his father would howl the word “moon”.
The bus hit a small bump and the guard sat up, instantly alert.
Stanley’s father was an inventor. To be a successful inventor you need three things: intelligence, perseverance, and just a little bit of luck.
Stanley’s father was smart and had a lot of perseverance. Once he started a project he would work on it for years, often going days without sleep. He just never had any luck.
Every time an experiment failed, Stanley could hear him cursing his dirty-rotten-pig-stealing-great-great-grandfather.
Stanley’s father was also named Stanley Yelnats. Stanley’s father’s full name was Stanley Yelnats III. Our Stanley is Stanley Yelnats IV.
Everyone in his family had always liked the fact that “Stanley Yelnats” was spelled the same frontward and backward. So they kept naming their sons Stanley. Stanley was an only child, as was every other Stanley Yelnats before him.
All of them had something else in common. Despite their awful luck, they always remained hopeful. As Stanley’s father liked to say, “ I learned from failure.”
But perhaps that was part of the curse as well. If Stanley and his father weren’t always hopeful, then it wouldn’t hurt so much every time their hopes were crushed.
“Not every Stanley Yelnats has been a failure,” Stanley’s mother often pointed out, whenever Stanley or his father became so discouraged that they actually started to believe in the curse. The first Stanley Yelnats, Stanley’s great-grandfather, had made a fortune in the stock market. “He couldn’t have been too unlucky.”
At such times she neglected to mention the bad luck that befell the first Stanley Yelnats. He lost his entire fortune when he was moving from New York to California. His stagecoach was robbed by the outlaw Kissin' Kate Barlow.
If it weren’t for that, Stanley’s family would now be living in a mansion on a beach in California. Instead, they were crammed in a tiny apartment that smelled of burning rubber and foot odor.
“If only, if only….
The apartment smelled the way it did because Stanley’s father was trying to invent a way to recycle old sneakers. “The first person who finds a use for old sneakers, “ he said, “will be a very rich man.”
It was this lastest project that led to Stanley’s arrest.
The bus ride became increasingly bumpy because the road was no longer paved.
Actually, Stanley had been impressed when he first found out that is great-grandfather was robbed by Kissin’ Kate Barlow. True, he would have preferred living on the beach in California, but it was still kind of cool to have someone in your family robbed by a famous outlaw.
Kate Barlow didn’t actually kiss Stanley’s great-grandfather. That would have been really cool, but she only kissed the men she killed. Instead, she robbed him and left him stranded in the middle of the desert.
“He was lucky to have survived,” Stanley’s mother was quick to point out.
The bus was slowing down. The guard grunted as he stretched out his arms.
“Welcome Camp Green Lake,” said the driver.
Stanley looked out the dirty window. He couldn’t see a lake.
And hardly anything was green.

好的，这是一本名为《寻宝小子》的图书的详细简介，内容完全不涉及原书《Holes》的情节： --- 《星辰之歌：失落的奥秘》 作者：伊莱亚斯·文森特 类型：青少年冒险与奇幻 适读年龄：10岁及以上 字数：约15万字 装帧：精装典藏版 故事背景：艾瑟利亚大陆的黄昏 故事发生在一个名叫艾瑟利亚的古老大陆上。艾瑟利亚并非由王国或帝国统治，而是由十二个相互独立、文化迥异的“光之城邦”维系着脆弱的和平。在这些城邦的传说中，艾瑟利亚的繁荣源于三块被称为“创世之石”的远古遗物，它们拥有调节自然法则、维持生态平衡的神秘力量。 然而，数百年前，一场被称为“大寂静”的灾难席卷了大陆，创世之石的下落变得扑朔迷离，而大陆的边缘地带——“灰烬荒原”——则开始蔓延，吞噬着肥沃的土地和生机。现在，世界正处于一个不确定的黄昏时期，人们对未来充满恐惧，旧有的知识和魔法正在逐渐褪色。 主角介绍：被命运选中的制图师之子 我们的主人公是卡伦·维特，一个生活在最古老、最保守的光之城邦——奥瑞恩的十七岁少年。卡伦的父亲是一位著名的皇家制图师，他毕生致力于绘制一张详尽的、能标示出创世之石可能藏匿地的“星图”。然而，父亲在一年前的一次探险中神秘失踪，只留下一个布满晦涩符号的古老罗盘和一张未完成的星图草稿。 卡伦继承了父亲的制图技艺和对未解之谜的执着。他沉默寡言，但内心深处燃烧着对真相的渴望。他最大的天赋在于对“空间错位”的敏感——他能察觉到地图上的微小偏差，甚至能“看”到那些被时间掩盖的古代路径。 核心冲突：追寻被遗忘的坐标 故事的开端，卡伦在整理父亲遗物时，无意中激活了那枚古老的罗盘。罗盘不再指向正北，而是开始指向一个不断变化、似乎只存在于理论中的方向——“零度纬线”。 很快，卡伦发现自己卷入了一场远超他想象的巨大阴谋。一群自称为“守序者”的神秘组织，信奉“秩序必须通过清除混乱来维持”的教条，正在秘密搜寻创世之石，意图利用它们的力量重塑艾瑟利亚，消除所有“异端”和不确定的因素。 卡伦的父亲正是因为发现了“守序者”的计划，才被迫踏上逃亡之路，并留下了线索。卡伦必须抢在“守序者”之前，解读父亲的星图，找到失踪的创世之石，否则整个大陆的平衡将被打破，灰烬荒原将彻底吞噬生命。 冒险历程：穿越十二城邦的奇诡之旅 卡伦的旅程，是一场穿越艾瑟利亚十二座风格迥异的城邦的史诗级探险： 1. 奥瑞恩（起点）： 知识的殿堂，拥有巨大的古代图书馆，但被严苛的规矩束缚。卡伦在此地首次遭遇“守序者”的追捕，并结识了第一位伙伴——莉亚。 2. 莉亚——风语者： 莉亚来自游牧的空中城邦“风息之塔”。她精通古代的气流导航和利用声波破译符文的能力。她性格开朗，是卡伦冷静分析之外的活力源泉，她加入卡伦的队伍，是为了追查“守序者”偷走她族群的“风之晶体”的下落。 3. 赤铁熔炉： 一座建立在活火山上的工业城邦，那里的人们掌握着将魔法能量转化为机械动力的技术。在这里，卡伦和莉亚必须学会信任机器的力量，并对抗一个迷恋于“完美机械体”的狂热工程师。 4. 幽暗沼泽的隐士： 为了理解星图上的“时间折叠点”，卡伦一行人必须深入被诅咒的沼泽地，寻求隐居在那里的，被主流社会驱逐的古代时间术士的帮助。 在旅途中，他们不仅要破解父亲留下的地理谜题，还要应对那些基于信仰而非理性的阻碍。卡伦发现，创世之石并非简单的强大工具，它们更像是某种“校准器”，只有通过特定的心灵和知识的“共振”，才能被正确引导。 关键主题与挑战 1. 知识与禁锢： 故事深入探讨了知识的本质。奥瑞恩的知识是结构化的，但却是僵化的；而灰烬荒原的知识是野生的，但却是危险的。卡伦必须学会如何平衡理性分析与直觉感应，才能真正理解星图的意义。 2. 罗盘与方向感： 罗盘象征着内在的指引。在没有地图、规则不断被打破的世界中，真正的方向感来自于对自我信念的坚持。卡伦的挑战在于，学会相信一个无法被精确测量的“未来”。 3. 伪善的秩序： “守序者”看似维护和平，实则以消除“不确定性”为名义，压制一切创新和自由思考。卡伦的冒险，是对这种僵化控制的反抗，是对“生命在于变化”这一自然法则的捍卫。 高潮与结局的序幕 在故事的后半部分，卡伦破译出星图的最终坐标指向了被认为是神话的“静默之海”中心。他们意识到，创世之石的真正用途并非是“统治”世界，而是“连接”世界。它们是十二城邦之间能量流动的枢纽。 最终，卡伦与莉亚在“守序者”的伏击中，成功抵达了静默之海，但他们发现，父亲留下的最后线索指向的并非是取回一块石头，而是必须完成星图上最后的一段“绘制”——将所有城邦的坐标点连接起来，形成一个稳定的能量网络。 故事在卡伦即将完成最后一步，天空被前所未有的光芒照亮，而“守序者”的领袖带着强大的压制魔法冲向他们的瞬间戛然而止。卡伦手中的罗盘发出了刺眼的蓝光，他必须在电光石火间做出选择：是保护自己，还是将所有希望寄托在那张未完成的星图上，引领艾瑟利亚进入一个全新的、充满变数的时代？ 《星辰之歌：失落的奥秘》 是一部关于勇气、制图学、古老预言与年轻灵魂如何重塑世界的冒险史诗。它邀请读者跟随卡伦，去探索那些被遗忘的角落，去聆听那些关于真正自由的低语。

评分☆☆☆☆☆

《寻宝小子》这本书，与其说是一本故事，不如说是一次与作者共同经历的奇幻旅程。我被那种独特的叙事节奏深深吸引，它不像市面上很多故事那样急于将情节推向高潮，而是用一种缓慢而又充满韵味的方式，一点点地展开，让你在不知不觉中沉浸其中。书中的每一个细节，都仿佛经过精心打磨，无论是那个神秘的营地，还是那些古怪的人物，都带着一种引人入胜的魅力。我特别喜欢作者对环境的描写，那种炎热、干燥、一望无际的沙漠景象，仿佛就展现在眼前，让你能够感受到那份炙烤和枯竭。而主角的每一次挖掘，不仅仅是身体上的劳累，更是一种精神上的磨砺，一种在绝望中寻找出路的努力。书中的人物，虽然不是那种完美的英雄形象，但他们的缺点和挣扎，却反而让他们更加真实和 relatable。我常常会为主角的遭遇感到心疼，但也为他身上那种不轻易放弃的品质而感到振奋。这本书让我体会到，即使是最平凡的经历，也可以蕴藏着最不平凡的意义。

评分☆☆☆☆☆

这本书的封面就带着一种神秘又冒险的色彩，那几个小小的脚印在黄色的背景上蜿蜒，让人立刻联想到追踪、探索和未知的旅程。我第一次翻开它的时候，就被一种独特的叙事风格吸引住了，作者似乎有一种魔力，能够用最简洁的语言勾勒出最生动鲜活的场景和人物。我特别喜欢书里那种不动声色的幽默感，有时候一个不起眼的细节，一个简单的对话，都能让人会心一笑。而且，它不是那种情节跌宕起伏、惊险刺激的冒险故事，更多的是一种潜移默化的力量，一种在看似枯燥乏味的经历中发现意义和成长的过程。主角的经历，虽然充满了不公和挑战，但却展现出了一种难能可贵的韧性。我总觉得，这本书不仅仅是关于一个孩子在荒漠里挖坑的故事，它还在悄悄地探讨着一些更深层次的东西，比如命运、家庭、友情，以及如何在困境中保持希望。每一个人物，哪怕是那些看起来有些奇怪的配角，都仿佛有着自己的故事，自己的秘密，这让整个故事世界变得异常立体和真实。我甚至开始想象，如果我身处那个环境，会是什么样的感受，会做出什么样的选择。这本书真的有一种让人沉浸其中的魔力，让人在阅读的过程中，不自觉地去思考，去感受，去回味。

评分☆☆☆☆☆

这本《寻宝小子》给我带来的惊喜，简直就像是在一片干燥的土地上意外发现了一汪清泉。我本以为故事会聚焦于那个所谓的“寻宝”情节，但实际上，它远远超出了我的想象。故事的背景设定在一个极端而又充满奇特规则的地方，而主角的每一次挥锹，每一次劳作，都不仅仅是在执行一项惩罚，更像是在进行一场无声的探索，一种对未知世界的试探。我惊叹于作者如何将一个简单的劳动场景，描绘得如此富有张力，每一个挖坑的动作，每一次身体的感受，都仿佛能够透过文字传达给我。书中的人物关系，虽然不是那种热情洋溢、亲密无间的，但却充满了微妙的张力和潜藏的情感，那些沉默的对视，那些含糊不清的话语，都透露着角色之间复杂的关系网。我喜欢作者对于“公平”和“正义”的探讨，它并没有给出一个简单的答案，而是让读者自己去体会，去衡量。在阅读过程中，我常常会暂停下来，想象主角所处的环境，感受他的孤独和无奈，同时也为他身上那种不屈不挠的精神而感动。这本书更像是一部关于成长和蜕变的寓言，它告诉我们，即使在最严酷的环境下，希望的光芒也从未熄灭。

评分☆☆☆☆☆

拿到这本书的时候，我被它的名字和封面吸引了，感觉会是一个充满乐趣的冒险故事。而阅读的体验，也确实没有让我失望，甚至可以说，它带给我的远比我最初的期待要多得多。我喜欢它那种不动声色的幽默感，有时候一个小小的转折，一个出人意料的发现，都能让我忍不住笑出声来。故事的推进方式非常引人入胜，作者似乎知道什么时候该透露一点信息，什么时候又该保持神秘，让你始终保持着好奇心。书中的人物塑造也相当出色，每一个角色都有自己的特色，他们的对话也很有意思，有时候简单的一句话，就能看出人物的性格和立场。我特别喜欢书中关于“运气”和“命运”的探讨，这让故事不仅仅停留在表面，而是触及到了更深层次的思考。在阅读过程中，我常常会把自己代入到主角的处境，去感受他的迷茫、他的困惑，以及他内心深处的那份渴望。这本书让我明白，有时候，最好的宝藏，并不是金银珠宝，而是那些在经历中获得的成长和感悟。

评分☆☆☆☆☆

刚开始读这本书的时候，我完全没抱太大的期望，以为就是一本给小孩子看的轻松读物，没想到越读越觉得有意思。故事里的那个大坑，看似毫无意义，却串联起了整个故事的线索，而且随着故事的推进，你会发现每一个看似随机的事件，其实都隐藏着深远的联系。作者的叙事手法非常巧妙，他并没有一开始就点破所有的谜团，而是像剥洋葱一样，一层一层地揭开真相，让你在阅读过程中不断地猜测和推理。我最欣赏的是它对人物心理的刻画，即使是年仅十来岁的孩子，他的内心世界也描绘得相当细腻，他的困惑、他的委屈、他的小小的坚持，都让人感同身受。而且，书中的对话也非常有特点，有时候看似简单直白，但细细品味，却能发现言外之意，充满智慧。我特别喜欢书里那些关于“运气”和“诅咒”的讨论，这让故事带上了一层淡淡的宿命感，也引发了我对人生中很多巧合和偶然的思考。读完之后，我才发现，原来一个看似简单的故事，可以承载那么多丰富的情感和深刻的寓意。它不是那种会让你大声叫好的故事，而是那种会在你心里留下印记，让你久久回味的故事。

评分☆☆☆☆☆

我算不上一个“地道”的读书人，没有什么经验可谈，就和大家在一起谈一些个人的观点。我个人对“读好书”的见解可以概括为12个字：精读、常读、笔读、心读、鉴读、多读。
