註釋In 'Brite and Fair' by Henry A. Shute, the reader is taken on a journey through the lives of fishermen in a small New England coastal town. Written in a realistic and straightforward style, the novel reveals the harsh realities of life at sea and the struggles of the working class in the late 19th century. Shute's attention to detail and vivid descriptions immerse the reader in the daily lives of the characters, creating a memorable and authentic portrayal of this time period. The novel's exploration of themes such as family, friendship, and the pursuit of happiness makes it a compelling and thought-provoking read for those interested in social realism literature. Henry A. Shute, a lawyer and newspaper editor, drew inspiration for 'Brite and Fair' from his own experiences growing up in a coastal community. His firsthand knowledge of the fishing industry and the hardships faced by fishermen informs the novel, adding depth and authenticity to the narrative. Shute's ability to capture the essence of working-class life and his compassion for his characters shine through in this compelling work of fiction. I highly recommend 'Brite and Fair' to readers who enjoy immersive historical novels that explore the human experience with honesty and compassion. Shute's lyrical prose and realistic depiction of life in a coastal town make this novel a must-read for those interested in the realities of 19th-century America.
