那些诗一般的描述简直不能更美,这样的小说实在是难以被复制到大屏幕上的。
评分追求爱情,总比追求金钱地位什么好一些吧;并不是因为前者高尚,而是难以达到。
评分华丽而简单
评分原文华丽流畅,描述事件充满画面感,内心感受饱含蛋蛋忧伤。抓人物细节简洁有力,遣词造句有诗歌的节奏。Fitzgerald一气呵成有如神助,是那种孔乙己式的扎心作品。中文翻译丢了诗意,这个写作巅峰只可以被敬仰,难以被超越。

Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald (September 24, 1896 – December 21, 1940) was an American author of novels and short stories, whose works are the paradigm writings of the Jazz Age, a term he coined himself. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest American writers of the 20th century.[1] Fitzgerald is considered a member of the "Lost Generation" of the 1920s. He finished four novels: This Side of Paradise, The Beautiful and Damned, The Great Gatsby—his most famous—and Tender Is the Night. A fifth, unfinished novel, The Love of the Last Tycoon, was published posthumously. Fitzgerald also wrote many short stories that treat themes of youth and promise along with despair and age.
In 1922, F. Scott Fitzgerald announced his decision to write "something new--something extraordinary and beautiful and simple and intricately patterned." That extraordinary, beautiful, intricately patterned, and above all, simple novel became The Great Gatsby, arguably Fitzgerald's finest work and certainly the book for which he is best known. A portrait of the Jazz Age in all of its decadence and excess, Gatsby captured the spirit of the author's generation and earned itself a permanent place in American mythology. Self-made, self-invented millionaire Jay Gatsby embodies some of Fitzgerald's--and his country's--most abiding obsessions: money, ambition, greed, and the promise of new beginnings. "Gatsby believed in the green light, the orgiastic future that year by year recedes before us. It eluded us then, but that's no matter--tomorrow we will run faster, stretch out our arms farther.... And one fine morning--" Gatsby's rise to glory and eventual fall from grace becomes a kind of cautionary tale about the American Dream.
It's also a love story, of sorts, the narrative of Gatsby's quixotic passion for Daisy Buchanan. The pair meet five years before the novel begins, when Daisy is a legendary young Louisville beauty and Gatsby an impoverished officer. They fall in love, but while Gatsby serves overseas, Daisy marries the brutal, bullying, but extremely rich Tom Buchanan. After the war, Gatsby devotes himself blindly to the pursuit of wealth by whatever means--and to the pursuit of Daisy, which amounts to the same thing. "Her voice is full of money," Gatsby says admiringly, in one of the novel's more famous descriptions. His millions made, Gatsby buys a mansion across Long Island Sound from Daisy's patrician East Egg address, throws lavish parties, and waits for her to appear. When she does, events unfold with all the tragic inevitability of a Greek drama, with detached, cynical neighbor Nick Carraway acting as chorus throughout. Spare, elegantly plotted, and written in crystalline prose, The Great Gatsby is as perfectly satisfying as the best kind of poem.
《了不起的盖茨比》中有一段非常普通的对话:第二章中,Tom带着Nick去见他的情妇Myrtle,随后三人一同坐火车前往纽约,在车站Myrtle看中了小贩兜售的一条狗,然后很矫情地问“Is it a boy or a girl?” Tom冷冷地回应“It's a bitch.” 李继宏居然翻译为“它是个婊子。”这是一...
评分在黛西和盖茨比终于再次相会的那个午后。黛西:我们有好多年没见了。盖茨比:到11月刚好五年。(我忘了原文是否如此。我没有照原文引用。)作为在场者的尼克立刻意识到,盖茨比的应答让气氛变得无比尴尬。 一定有人对此会心一笑。 几十年后1997年的某个下午,A问B他女朋友C的...
评分等待的哀歌 当我翻完《了不起的盖茨比》的最后一页,我莫名其妙的回忆起一年前的一个秋夜阅读果戈理《涅瓦大街》的情景。当我在涅瓦大街迷人的街灯和喧闹的人群中目睹一个纯真又孱弱的年轻人的激情,被现实的荒谬彻底击碎的时候,我感到一种难以名状的情绪令我无处遁形。庇斯卡...
评分一直都不怎么喜欢菲茨杰拉德,直到喜欢上了村上春树。 在这之前,印象中的菲茨杰拉德是这样一个作家:阴柔、华美,热衷于书写贵公子和美丽的南方女郎的爱情游戏。那时候,一说起20世纪上半期的美国文学,就会想到海明威和福克纳。从他们的小说中,我看到两人的缄默和隐藏在其...
