The House of Mirth tells the story of Lily Bart, aged 29, beautiful, impoverished and in need of a rich husband to safeguard her place in the social elite, and to support her expensive habits - her clothes, her charities and her gambling. Unwilling to marry without both love and money, Lily becomes vulnerable to the kind of gossip and slander which attach to a girl who has been on the marriage market for too long. Wharton charts the course of Lily's life, providing, along the way, a wider picture of a society in transition, a rapidly changing New York where the old certainties of manners, morals and family have disappeared and the individual has become an expendable commodity.
起初读着准备给五星的,女作家细致的观察和描写,洞彻人的心扉等等,挺有意思。但是这本不厚的书前后断断续续读了两个月,越到后来越是读不下去。整本书用两句话就可以概括了。女主拼搏在万恶却华丽的上流社会,同时又被向往真爱和正义感的另一个自己绊住脚跟,最终失败地、饮...
评分“淡淡的忧伤”,这是雕爷牛腩家的一道前点,其实就是一颗煮鸡蛋,面对诧异的餐客,服务员操着不太标准的普通话,讲着这颗鸡蛋顾名不可思义的做法,脸上的面纱似乎在遮掩背后嘲弄的笑容。这颗在低温的温水中煮熟的鸡蛋,仿佛因为这文艺范儿的名字也显露出一种异常优雅的气质,...
评分 评分读完了,译笔流畅,心理细腻,不错的风俗小说。是世俗的力量打败了爱情吗?诚如鲁迅先生所说,在这困顿中,可以看透很多事情。 “她看不起自己所追求的东西。”这样的人越来越少了。也许,我们会发现自己还没有那么堕落吧?我们有弱点,但是我们也有不能放下的自尊。 从小说的...
评分心理描写很细致,很多处也都很有女权主义的雏形。只是当下社会已经给了女性更多的的选择,所以没有太多的代入感。如今女人不再是当客厅的太太一条路了,就算是上流社会的公主也是要去投行训练一下,有“正经工作”的。在此真挚地谢谢书中扮演背景的女工,是他们的存在和努力最...
读来有切肤之痛。不喜欢用干巴巴的理论分析它,因为它明明只是社会风俗小说,却直击了生活核心的真实。
评分Very entertaining and much fun to read. But somehow I feel it hard to analyse the complicated emotions of the protagonists with the help of Luts' theory in the novel.
评分第一本认真读完每一页的英文小说。congratulations= =
