昨天,美国作家迈克尔·麦尔在单向街书店与读者分享他的新书《再会,老北京》,他不断流露出的对北京人的爱、对北京胡同的爱感染了众人。
1995年,迈克尔·麦尔作为美国“和平队”志愿者首次来到中国,在四川一座小城培训英语教师。
1997年志愿者服务结束后他搬到北京,对这座古都一见钟情。他曾在海运仓、小西天、上地等多个地方居住,2005年以后,又出于对胡同的浓厚兴趣,搬进了大栅栏里的胡同。他曾拜访了梁从诫等诸多人士,最终成就了该书。在这本书中,迈克尔忠实记录了在胡同里的两年生活时光,夹叙北京历史和对这座城市建设的思考。
迈克尔说,他2005年住进杨梅竹斜街后,在炭儿胡同小学找了一份英语教师的工作。他因此有机会深入到了胡同生活,与邻居大妈朝夕相处,跟随收垃圾的“废品王”前往垃圾场一探究竟,到拉面店老刘的山西老家去亲身感受他的家乡生活。而他也发现,胡同所在的社区并不像外界想象的那样缺乏管理,恰恰相反,大栅栏的胡同治安良好,充满生气。
