內容簡介

I didn't decide to become anorexic. It snuck up on me disguised as a healthy diet, a professional attitude. Being as thin as possible was a way to make the job of being an actress easier . . .

Portia de Rossi weighed only 82 pounds when she collapsed on the set of the Hollywood film in which she was playing her first leading role. This should have been the culmination of all her years of hard work--first as a child model in Australia, then as a cast member of one of the hottest shows on American television. On the outside she was thin and blond, glamorous and successful. On the inside, she was literally dying.

In this searing, unflinchingly honest book, Portia de Rossi captures the complex emotional truth of what it is like when food, weight, and body image take priority over every other human impulse or action. She recounts the elaborate rituals around eating that came to dominate hours of every day, from keeping her daily calorie intake below 300 to eating precisely measured amounts of food out of specific bowls and only with certain utensils. When this wasn't enough, she resorted to purging and compulsive physical exercise, driving her body and spirit to the breaking point.

Even as she rose to fame as a cast member of the hit television shows Ally McBeal and Arrested Development, Portia alternately starved herself and binged, all the while terrified that the truth of her sexuality would be exposed in the tabloids. She reveals the heartache and fear that accompany a life lived in the closet, a sense of isolation that was only magnified by her unrelenting desire to be ever thinner. With the storytelling skills of a great novelist and the eye for detail of a poet, Portia makes transparent as never before the behaviors and emotions of someone living with an eating disorder.

From her lowest point, Portia began the painful climb back to a life of health and honesty, falling in love with and eventually marrying Ellen DeGeneres, and emerging as an outspoken and articulate advocate for gay rights and women's health issues.

In this remarkable and beautifully written work, Portia shines a bright light on a dark subject. A crucial book for all those who might sometimes feel at war with themselves or their bodies, Unbearable Lightness is a story that inspires hope and nourishes the spirit.

精彩書評

“Anorexia was my first love,” de Rossi declares in her memoir of her early Hollywood career and the eating disorders that went along with it. Her unflinching self-portrait depicts a cripplingly self-conscious young Australian in LA overwhelmed by the pressure to be thin. Never comfortable in her own skin, a by-product of her status as a closeted lesbian, de Rossi was sure if she ever gained weight (or came out as being gay), the shooting star she’d been cultivating would turn to lead. Weight loss was the key that allowed de Rossi to feel powerful and in control, until dieting became a sickness that nearly killed her and devastated her family. De Rossi’s story and words are not revolutionary, but they are frank, brave, and revelatory of the unhealthy trends that stardom can generate. Although more development of de Rossi’s happy ending (her eventual complete recovery, self-acceptance, coming-out, and marriage to Ellen DeGeneres) would be welcome, the book succeeds as it’s intended: a journal of her sickness and a provocatively sad love affair with dieting.
--Annie Bostrom

“The blunt, pity-free matter-of-factness with which de Rossi shares secrets and lies about her eating disorders and her sexuality makes this forthright confessional story at once shocking and instructional, especially for younger women who may be secretly suffering on their own.”
—Entertainment Weekly

一如既往的好！工作之餘,人們或楚河漢界運籌帷幄,或輕歌曼舞享受生活,而我則喜歡翻翻書、讀讀報,一個人沉浸在筆墨飄香的世界裏,跟智者神遊,與慧者交流,不知有漢,無論魏晉,醉在其中。我是一介窮書生,盡管在學校工作瞭二十五年,但是工資卻不好意思示人。當我教訓調皮搗蛋的女兒外孫子們時,時常被他們反問:“你老深更半夜瞭,還在寫作看書,可工資卻不到兩韆!”常常被他們噎得無話可說。當教師的我這一生注定與清貧相伴,惟一好處是有雙休息日,在屬於我的假期裏悠哉遊哉於書香之中,這也許是許多書外之人難以領略的愜意。好瞭，廢話不多說。不錯的書，內容很豐富，排版很閤理，一拿到就愛不釋手！絕對是正版的，給圖片上的一樣，而且嶄新的需要特彆強調的是京東訂的價格真的很低，服務態度也很好。快遞公司服務很到位，把書拿到4樓上來瞭（比什麼破“匯通快運”好多瞭！）。錶演賣傢和快遞公司！走過路過韆萬不要錯過，全5分！好瞭，我現在來說說這本書的觀感吧，網絡文學融入主流文學之難，在於文學批評傢的缺席，在於衡量標準的混亂，很長一段時間，文學批評傢對網絡文學集體失語，直到最近一兩年來，諸多活躍於文學批評領域的評論傢，纔開始著手建立網絡文學的評價體係，很難得的是，他們迅速掌握瞭網絡文學的魅力內核，並對網絡文學給予瞭高度評價、寄予瞭很深的厚望。隨著網絡文學理論體係的建立，以及網絡文學在創作水準上的不斷提高，網絡文學成為主流文學中的主流已是清晰可見的事情，下一屆的“五個一工程奬”，我們期待看到更多網絡文學作品的入選。現在，京東域名正式更換為JDCOM。其中的“JD”是京東漢語拼音（JING DON|G）首字母組閤。從此，您不用再特意記憶京東的域名，也無需先搜索再點擊，隻要在瀏覽器輸入JD.COM，即可方便快捷地訪問京東，實現輕鬆購物。名為“Joy”的京東吉祥物我很喜歡，TA承載著京東對我們的承諾和努力。狗以對主人忠誠而著稱，同時也擁有正直的品行，和快捷的奔跑速度。太喜愛京東瞭。|好瞭，現在給大傢介紹兩本好書：被美國學界譽為“思想巨匠”和“最具前瞻性的管理思想傢”的史蒂芬·柯維博士，他的集大成之作《高效能人士的七個習慣》已成為中國企事業單位和政府機關必備的最經典、最著名的一部培訓教材；在美國乃至全世界，史蒂芬·柯維的思想和成就，與拿破侖·希爾、戴爾·卡耐基比肩。《高效能人士的7個習慣（20周年紀念版）》在每一章最後增加瞭一個“付諸行動”版塊，精選柯維培訓課程中的實踐訓練習題，以幫助讀者加深對“七個習慣”的理解和掌握，使“七個習慣”成為屬於每個人自己的行動指南,價值堪比18000元的柯維現場培訓課。史蒂芬·柯維被美國《時代周刊》評為“20世紀影響美國曆史進程的25位人物”之一，他是前總統剋林頓倚重的顧問，《財富》雜誌100強中的90%和500強中的75%的企業是他的直接受教者，AT＆T、通用電子、全祿、可口可樂等大公司的高級主管都是他的學生，李開復等中國頂尖的企業傢和管理者也深受其思想的啓發。每年，來自全球的個人、傢庭、企業、教育界及政府領導者的受教生更是高達百萬人之多。東東槍和地下天鵝絨是兩位在博客、微博、專欄裏都非常受讀者喜愛的作傢，兩人思維跳躍，觀點奇特新穎，對待感情，他們也細細琢磨，也插科打諢。同在滾滾紅塵中摸爬滾打，兩位勇士將他們對兩性情感的所感所悟一一精彩呈現，得此《鴛鴦譜》，閃著智慧幽默的光。鴛鴦譜，靠譜。

今天剛剛拿到書，這本:..郭小窩1.郭小窩寫的風鈴之絆（套裝共2冊）很不錯，櫻聖私立學院神秘的翼公館近來不是很太平，一個空降而來的陌生女孩強硬地闖進瞭這群男生的生活，將他們原本平靜無波的生活攪得雞飛狗跳。這個法力無邊的女生看上去是個乖乖女，實則有股天不怕地不怕的氣勢。先是在開學第一天犯瞭全校女生的眾怒被人追殺，接著又毫無心理障礙地揍瞭無辜的哥哥，美其名曰是替父母管教，後又單槍匹馬地去挑戰人人厭惡又畏懼的校報變態主編。在發現公館那幾個人的秘密後，又瞄準瞭新目標，決定用自己的正能量改造這群彆扭的傢夥，讓他們相親相愛起來。然而，身邊有一個能預知未來的怪異少年經常冷不丁地預測一下明天該誰倒黴瞭，還有一個以探聽他人隱私為樂趣的惡趣味主編時不時對她圍追堵截，她的任務貌似十分艱巨。晶藍的天空萬裏無雲，偶有飛鳥一掠而過。大地蒸騰起一絲熱氣，透著悶悶的潮熱感。這座城市的夏天，已經悄無聲息地來臨。一架從遙遠國度航行而來的飛機，在天空劃齣一道細長的白煙，沿著既定的航綫，它平穩地飛行在空中，最後緩緩往目的地降落。各位乘客請注意，飛機即將在東方國際機場降落，請您檢查好隨身攜帶的物品廣播裏響起空姐溫柔的聲音，讓原本還昏昏欲睡的莫可淩漸漸恢復清醒。倏地，眼前猛然驚悚地閃過那張肥頭大耳，滿臉雀斑，還戴著厚厚眼鏡的書呆子的臉。那是在迴國前，從父親那裏看到的那個素未謀麵的哥哥的照片。於是，在終於想清楚自己的處境後，茫然的錶情瞬間變得異常扭麯，像被大卡車碾過。混蛋混蛋混蛋！！！可惡！居然這麼對我！混蛋！不顧現在身處安靜的機艙，莫可淩失控地抓狂大叫。這個舉動，立即惹來一堆眼球。剋製著內心的不安，坐在她身旁的一位外國友人關切地問道聞言，莫可淩的臉霎時冷若冰霜，她垂著眼皮，麵無錶情地看著那個白皮膚藍眼睛的男人，一字一頓地說，！刹那間，外國友人一臉黑綫。像是摺騰纍瞭，莫可淩有氣無力地看嚮窗外。透過窗戶，她看見地上的建築似乎在瞬間拔地而起，慢慢變大。她開始感受到瞭東方的繁華。莫可淩，莫氏企業的韆金，因為齣生時先天不足，所以在還沒有記憶的時候就被送到瞭國外一座名叫維斯亞的療養島靜養，此後，她沒有踏齣過島內半步。而在國內的哥哥因為種種原因，也從未來過島上，於是本應該相親相愛的兄妹倆，變成瞭素未謀麵的陌生人。如果父母不提起的話，她可能一輩子都不會知道自己還有個哥哥。最近不知為何，父母忽然提齣要自己迴國跟哥哥住在一起，一開始，莫可淩覺得挺新鮮的，便跟父親要哥哥的照片，可是當收到那個所謂的哥哥發過來的照片時，莫可淩不樂意瞭。——我纔不要跟那種醜八怪住在一起！這是莫可淩看到照片後的第一反應。可是連哄帶騙，她最後還是被父母
