关于有关了不起的盖茨比读书感悟1
在很久之前曾经读过这一本书,故事的构成到现在的记忆已经模糊,只知道这是一个求而不得的爱情故事。但是却一直没有领略到盖茨比的了不起体现在哪里?
但我想这本书有如此高的评价,也并非只是讲述了一个男子追求心爱女子的故事这么浅显的故事。我想是我自己太过浅薄了还没有体会到这一个故事想表达的东西。因而又重新去体会了一遍这个故事。
说实话,这个故事并不是我喜欢的有完美结局的故事。但是读完之后,仍然觉得心绪难平,想通过一个渠道去宣泄下心里的情绪。我无法说出来一个故事为什么最后会呈现那样一个结局,如此悲伤而自然的结局。
故事用有个场景,让我到现在想起来都可以体会到那个时候的张力。就像我在现场,看着故事发生,我都紧张的屏住呼吸。在尼克的家里,盖茨比终于要见到一直在等到与守候的心上人——黛西,一个已嫁作他人妇,但是仍然放不下的黛西。
通过作者的笔触,你可以体会到尼克那时候期盼与紧张的心情,以及黛西见到旧情人的时候的羞涩与不安。相顾无言,只有动作在传递着一些情绪。我想那个时候的尼克,看见自己一直遥望的绿灯出现在自己触手可及的地方的时候的心情,是欣喜还是心酸?
随后的故事,像是启动了命运的车轮,越转越快,最终盖茨比成为了牺牲品。但是最令人悲伤的是盖茨比的葬礼,黛西没有来,往常来往于他的宴会的人也没有来,生意伙伴没有来,只有一个心里面有一点亲情和贪婪的老父亲出现。还有一个人,那就是尼克。
葬礼的无人问津和宴会上的觥筹交错,让人觉得恍惚到离奇。辉煌时身边人的络绎不绝,跌落谷底时的少有人的支持。
人性的悲凉,嫉妒,逃避责任,有时候不经意间就推动了一个生命的沉沦。

每个人都能从盖茨比的身上看到自己的影子,我也是。
书名对盖茨比做出了评价,了不起,在于他对于这部分“梦想”的坚持,一颗心的赤诚。故事的结尾充满了悲凉,充满了那个年代里的人性的冷漠与人情的薄凉。生前财富与荣华带来的热热闹闹,对比着,葬礼的冷冷清清,盖茨比毕生追求的,或许只是为了可以与黛西那个阶层的匹配,他的内心是真诚的,只是最后得到的是“背负着早已忘却的梦走过一年又一年,守望着虚无”,那五年他守望与坚持的,是一份想象,美好的想象,“美国梦”般的想象。只可惜到最后梦碎了,满是悲凉。
黛西和盖茨比根本不是一个世界里的人。其实黛西所处的环境,她所在的那个阶层,根本无法体会盖茨比,她只是想要一份快乐,一份安逸,她根本不会为了一份所谓的真挚的感情而放下她拥有的,哪怕是冒一丁点的风险。
“被真相伤害总比被谎言安慰好”,对盖茨比的一生,我总感到惋惜。有时在想,若是五年前盖茨比可以接受现实,懂了过去的终归是过去,那或者又是另一番结局。
细细想来,我又何尝不是如此,当接受了所有的现实,发现即使再回到那年,也早已没了那年的冬天,没了那年的自己,过去了的也早已过去。我很感激,感激曾经的那份感觉带给我的,一种温暖如阳光,一种一直鼓励我往前走的向上的力量。
我很欣赏对生活认真的人,早已过了耳听言语的小小年纪,聆听自己的心,用心感受,追求着让自己更为舒服的生活,一种方式。可以无趣,但贵在真实。
“躲得过对酒当歌的夜,躲不过四下无人的街”,若现实如此,我依然喜欢这座城市,依然喜欢在这里的感觉。

上周一口气读了《了不起的盖茨比》,这是一本在美国很有名的书,在美国人心目中,它对美国人的`心灵产生了很大的影响。
二十世纪二十年代的美国,空气里弥漫着欢歌与纵饮的气息。一个偶然的机会,穷职员尼克从美国西部来到纽约追寻自己的梦想,从事起债券生意,无意中他闯入了挥金如土的大富翁盖茨比隐秘的世界,惊讶地发现,他内心唯一的牵绊竟是河对岸那盏小小的绿灯——灯影婆娑中,住着心爱的黛西。然而,冰冷的现实容不下缥缈的梦,到头来,盖茨比心中的女神只不过是凡尘俗世、任性不负责任的物质女郎。而盖茨比走后,却无人问津,无论生意伙伴还是朋友门客。当一切真相大白,盖茨比的悲剧人生亦如烟花般,璀璨只是一瞬,幻灭才是永恒。最终尼克在纽约没有带走一片云彩,选择了回家,而盖茨比却留给了他一个现实的故事和深刻的思考。
现在的中国,有多少怀揣梦想的“尼克”,我想自己也是其中一个。当然不是每个尼克都会遇到并执著于某个物质女郎。有些“尼克”功成名就,但是却也伤痕累累;有些“尼克”想明白,看明白了,选择了对自己真正重要的东西;更多的“尼克”迷失了。往往我们过分执着于什么,就越容易在什么中迷失,经常走的太远。我想我们需要停下来,休息一下,静静的思考,让自己的灵魂跟上。
生活只有一次机会,不可重来。
“The American Dream”reflected in The Great Gatsby
The Great Gatsby is a novel by the American author F.Scott Fitzgerald.The first time I finished reading it, I treated it as a love tragic story.Gatsby’s love for Daisy was so deep that he loved her for so many years and finally died because of her.However, it is a pity that Daisy was a fickle, shallow girl who only loved money, ease and material luxuty.I feel sorry for Gatsby’s love for a unworthy girl.In fact, the novel involves a much larger and less romantic scope.I came to realize it after knowing more about F.Scott Fitzgerald’s works and the background of the story.The Great Gatsby actually symbolized the disillusion of the American Dream.It shows a vivid picture of the 1920’s with its surface prosperity and underlying sadness.The 1920’s is a decade when Americans worship money and ease of life instead of the original American Dream that dreaming of a better, richer and happier life for all citizens of every rank.The tragedy of Gatsby is an example of the failure of the American Dream.It can be analyzed from people’s pursuit of money, status and love.Money was of great importance during that period of time.It can be found from every aspect of people’s life.Firstly, money was a necessity for love and marriage.Gatsby was penniless when Daisy fell in love with him.They could not get married without money.Thus, Gatsby left to make money for his love.However, Daisy didn’t wait for him but married Tom, an arrogant, hypocritical man who had no moral qualms but money.From it we can see that Daisy chose money, not love.Secondly, people can do anything for money.For example, in order to make money, Gatsby chose to smuggle alcohol and do other criminal activities.These activities were of high risks, but Gatsby was willing to do them for money.Thirdly, money was more important than family kinship.At the funeral of Gatsby, his father didn’t show much sorrow for his son’s death, but were more proud of his son’s wealth.In his eye’s, money was more important than his son.Finally, money could make a normal person a celebrity.At the beginning of the novel, the author spent a lot of ink to describe the gorgeous mansion Gatsby lived, the luxurious car he owned, and the grand parties he held.These things made Gatsby popular in the town and these things all came from money.From above it can be concluded that money was the very pursuit of people in that period of time.Status was also a very important thing people try to pursue.Firstly, it can be reflected from Gatsby’s love for Daisy.Why did Gatsby loved Daisy but not other girls? This was because to Gatsby, Daisy represented the paragon of perfection—she has the aura of charm, wealth, sophistication, grace, and aristocracy that he longed for as a child in North Dakota.All her characters were endowed by her status.Secondly, in the novel, the town was divided into East Egg and West Egg.People like Daisy and Tom lived on the East Egg presented American aristocracy(families with old wealth), and people like Gatsby lived in the West Egg presented newly rich industrialists and speculators.Fitzgerald portrays the newly rich as being vulgar, gaudy, ostentatious, and lacking in social graces and taste.Gatsby, for example, lives in a monstrously ornate mansion, wears a pink suit, drives a Rolls-Royce, and does not pick up on subtle social signals, such as the insincerity of the Sloanes’ invitation to lunch.In contrast, the old aristocracy possesses grace, taste, subtlety, and elegance, epitomized by the Buchanans’ tasteful home and the flowing white dresses of Daisy and Jordan Baker.Thus, it can be concluded that the newly rich admired the aristocracy’s status.Gatsby’s pursuit for Daisy also reflected the American Dream.Daisy was beautiful, charming
and grace, but she was also shallow, bored and sardonic.In reality, therefore, Daisy falls far short of Gatsby’s ideals.Daisy proves her real nature when she chooses Tom over Gatsby in Chapter VII, then allows Gatsby to take the blame for killing Myrtle Wilson even though she herself was driving the car.Finally, rather than attend Gatsby’s funeral, Daisy and Tom move away, leaving no forwarding address.With the pursuits corrupted, Gatsby's American dream is inevitably doomed.Gatsby died in line with the disillusionment of the American Dream.Furthermore,Gatsby is merely a typical representative of the thousands of Americans in 1920s.Through the archetypal story of Gatsby, Fitzgerald tells us that the distorted and perverted American dream in 1920s is doomed a disillusionment.
