作者简介
Anna Sewell (1820-78) was born in Great Yarmouth, Norfolk. Black Beauty, her only book, was completed and published in 1877, just a few months before she died, so she did not live to know of the book's huge success. Apart from being a good story, Black Beauty was instrumental in changing people's attitudes towards horses, and domestic animals in general.
安娜·塞维尔于1820年出生于英国诺福克,于1878年去世。出于对人类虐待动物的强烈不满,她写下了《黑骏马》,以说服人们对马仁慈一些。这是她身患重病的时候花了6年的时间写的,也是她写的唯一一本书。书出版后不久她就去世了,从那时以来这本书销售了3,000多万本。她似乎天生就对马有一种亲切感,《黑骏马》中涉及的大量的马术知识,显然出自作者一生的体验。安娜十四岁时落下了残疾,从此拐杖就成了她行走时离不开的工具,但她仍然坚持自己驾驭由一匹矮种马拉的马车到处活动。她创作《黑骏马》的最大愿望就是引发人们的善心、同情心,使他们懂得该怎样对待动物。
