內(nèi)容簡(jiǎn)介：《十八歲給我一個(gè)姑娘》作為馮唐北京三部曲《萬(wàn)物生長(zhǎng)》的前傳，講述了十七歲的少年秋水逐漸長(zhǎng)大成人，并愛(ài)上鄰家姑娘朱裳的故事。全書(shū)在撲面而來(lái)的青春味道中，塑造了這一特殊階段的生命萌動(dòng)、反叛與思考；刻畫(huà)出一個(gè)身處青春期男孩的內(nèi)心，并通過(guò)男孩群像還原出20世紀(jì)80年代少年們眼中的北京。本書(shū)為英文翻譯版。 Synopsis： Give Me a Girl at Age Eighteen is a coming-of-age story set in Beijing in the late eighties and early nineties. The narrator， Qiushui， is a silver-tongued teenage boy whose one constant goal throughout the tumult of puberty is to win the heart of Zhu Shang， a guitar-strumming classmate who is the most beautiful girl he's ever seen. Give Me a Girl at Age Eighteen resembles J. D. Salinger’s The Catcher in the Rye. Despite having different historical and political contexts， these two books complement each other as they draw upon the universal theme of sexual awakening and discuss the similar concepts of loss of childhood innocence and sheltered life， and the bitter introduction of the harsher yet more exciting world of adulthood.
