出版商概要
<p>Praise for "Seven Pleasures"<p>"Few happy people write books, but when they do, they confer the blessings of wisdom and their sanguine nature on the unhappy many. I learned so much from "Seven Pleasures." I felt that Willard Spiegelman was personally walking me through all the steps necessary to dance the tango of bliss that he has so delightfully mastered."--Edmund White, author of "Hotel de Dream"<p>"Willard Spiegelman's "Seven Pleasures" mounts a gentle and persuasive argument for what years ago would have been called a more civilized life.

Spiegelman is simply a great essayist." --Mark Oppenheimer, author of "Thirteen and a Day"<p>"[The] impulse to share his enjoyment has resulted in "Seven Pleasures," 再讀一些...
