BETWEEN THE WOODS AND THE WATER
Book ID/图书代码： 12100010B37768
English Summary/英文概要： The acclaimed travel writer’s youthful journey - as an 18-year-old - across 1930s Europe by foot began in A Time of Gifts, which covered the author’s exacting journey from the Lowlands as far as Hungary. Picking up from the very spot on a bridge across the Danube where his readers last saw him, we travel on with him across the great Hungarian Plain on horseback, and over the Romanian border to Transylvania.
The trip was an exploration of a continent which was already showing signs of the holocaust which was to come. Although frequently praised for his lyrical writing, Fermor’s account also provides a coherent understanding of the dramatic events then unfolding in Middle Europe. But the delight remains in travelling with him in his picaresque journey past remote castles, mountain villages, monasteries and towering ranges.
Although Between the Woods and the Water was published nine years after A Time of Gifts, Fermor is famously still at work on the concluding part of his trilogy.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 游记作家的青春之旅——在20世纪30年代，一个18岁的行者开始了他跨越欧洲的徒步青春旅程 ——从《时间的礼物》开始，记载着从荷兰远足至匈牙利惊人之旅。 他的读者最后一次见到他，是他横跨多瑙河的桥梁时。我们骑马，与他同行，横跨伟大的匈牙利平原，穿越罗马尼亚边境走向特兰西瓦尼亚。
这是大陆探险之旅，已经露出了大屠杀的迹象。虽然他以抒情写作闻名，Fermor也构造了一个连贯在欧洲中部展开的重大事件。但仍然停留在他过去喜欢的，流浪汉向远方城堡、山区村庄，寺庙和高塔旅行的题材。
虽然《森林与水之间》比《时间的礼物》后出版9年，Fermor仍然名声显赫，继续完成他的三部曲的最后一部。(LNL)
