有人说，诉说就像是池塘里的浮萍，而文字就是那森林里的大树，它扎根于大地的泥土，给人一种扎实牢靠的保险感。闻着淡淡的书香味，静静地感受着书中人物的悲喜，细细品味着书中意境的悠远。 我们向往美好，名义如此，心灵亦然。假如说有一种最简单的让人变得美好的方式，那一定是读书。当你在倾听一些高尚的灵魂自言自语时，内心也会不由自主地谦逊和聚精会神起来！ “每次遇到问题时，我都会找来相关的书阅读，希望从书中得到些启示。” —— 奥巴马 美国总统奥巴马（Barack Hussein Obama）是一位酷爱阅读的指导人。自从2008年在蒙大拿州（Montana）机场被拍到在读法里德·扎卡利亚（Fareed Zakaria）撰写的《后美国世界》（The Post-American World）一书之后，他的阅读清单就成为了全球图书市场的风向标之一。 今天是世界读书日！ 趁着今天，我们就为大家揭秘美国总统的阅读清单，一同来看看这些书籍你都看过吗？
Fates and Furies 《命运和愤恨》
Lauren Goff 劳伦·格罗夫 Fates and Furiesis a masterpiece that beyond everyone's expectation. Every story has two sides. Every relationship has two perspectives. 《命运和愤恨》是一部超乎人们想象的文学巨制，每一个故事都有两面，每一段关系都有两个视角。 And it turned out that the key to a pleasant marriage was not about its truth, but about its secrets. This novel wrote the story behind a so-called “successful marriage”, and tried to reveal the truth about marriage from different angles. 有时，你会发现，圆满婚姻的关键不是真相，而是秘密。小说从丈夫与妻子的不同角度书写了一段看似胜利的婚姻背地不为人知的故事，试图揭露婚姻的真相。 “Groff writes with a pleasurable, bantering vividness. An intricate plot and a harrowing look at the tie that binds.”—— Kirkus Reviews “格罗夫以轻松诙谐的言语作风讲述了一个虚无缥缈的，以悲剧结尾的故事。” —— 科克斯书评
