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.

評分花了两天时间看完的，也就是了解了一个皮毛而已。而且放弃了看英文版，而看了翻译本，觉得挺别扭。 估计少有人看女性作家的作品，更不要说时外国女作家了。全文也就是说了一个怨妇在一堆怨妇中挣扎的故事。要面子又没钱的那个怨妇活得很累，要面子又有钱的怨妇们活着跟死了一样...
評分“智者的心，住在哀伤之家；愚者的心，住在欢乐之家”。 莉莉·芭特灿烂短暂如流星的一生命运，正是在这两级间的挣扎。一卷跌宕起伏的感情史，一幅衣香鬓影的纽约风情画，一个无法泯灭最终良心的困顿灵魂，一个上流阶层版本的《嘉利妹妹》，又一出美国悲剧。 本书是伊迪丝·华...

讀來有切膚之痛。不喜歡用乾巴巴的理論分析它，因為它明明隻是社會風俗小說，卻直擊瞭生活核心的真實。
评分English version of 長恨歌
评分Most pretentious & wordy.Origin of Gossip Girl. Or I only dip in the surface and never get the greatness?
评分Weeping with anger and despair. I want to strangle every person in this book except Lily, Gerty, Mrs Struther... and perhaps Carry Fisher and Rosedale.
评分第一本認真讀完每一頁的英文小說。congratulations= =
