With an Introduction by Dr Pamela Knights, Department of English Studies, Durham University On a poor farm near Starkfield in western Massachusetts, Ethan Frome struggles to wrest a living from the land, unassisted by his whining and hypochondriacal wife Zeena. When Zeena's young cousin Mattie Silver is left destitute, the only place she can go is Ethan's farm. An embittered man and an enchanting young woman meeting in such circumstances unleash predictable consequences as passions are aroused between the three protagonists, Edith Wharton's characterisation and deft handling of reversals of fortune are so accomplished that Ethan Frome has remained enduringly popular since its first publication in 1911 and is considered her greatest tragic story.
虽然有几本伊迪丝华顿的小说,不过这倒是第一次看 伊迪丝华顿在这篇不长的小说中,叙述了一段美丽的爱情故事,然而,这里更叙述了人类苦难的生活 风雪中,一个爱情故事变成了凄苦,变成了难以承受的苦难。不过,主人公们还在承受着。 不能不承认,伊迪丝华顿的笔触很细腻,...
评分这是一本很容易被忽略的书,薄薄一册,素白的包装,实在显得太不起眼。但就是这样一本不起眼的小书却令我反复读过多次,并且每次读来都仍然不免唏嘘感慨主人公命运的悲惨,同时也为伊迪斯华尔顿的叙述功力所折服。 如果抛开序幕和尾声,那么这部中篇小说的主题内容其实只有四...

评分不会写书评,这个故事是我读过的经典的故事之一。吕叔湘的翻译真是绝了。感情细腻,语言生动朴实。伊坦跟玛特的爱情确实让人叹息,多好的一对啊,偏偏不能在一起,只能双双选择覆灭。若是伊坦舍弃细娜,和玛特远走高飞。实际上他也顾不了细娜了,他想把田地和伐木场留给细娜,...
The love story ends like a ghost story. The ailing Zeena ejected Mattie on the pretext that someone handier than her would be helpful in doing housework. Frome made a clean breast of his affection for her en route to the station. The two merrymakers sledding down the slopes expecting nothing untoward were only to be commiserated instead of blessed.
评分不太能理解Mattie的感情。故事持续的时间非常短,四个冬夜。但读到最后很唏嘘Frome的命运,不只是悲惨,更有种宿命感。 压抑了整整一个下午。

评分比悲伤更悲伤的故事,原本恶毒的原配居然忍气吞声地照顾一心赴死却双双残疾的未婚夫和小三那么久。
