Everyone knows that Dicken's "Bleak House" is a literary classic. But how many know it was the first detective novel too? Introducing "Crime Classics", from Atlantic Books.Jarndyce versus Jarndyce - a dispute over a vast fortune left by an intestate miser - has occupied the Court of Chancery for years. When, one day, Lady Dedlock faints upon recognizing the handwriting in one of the documents pertaining to the case, her sinister lawyer, Tulkinghorn, immediately senses a hidden secret - and an opportunity for blackmail...But he is playing a dangerous game, and he is found dead: the victim of murder most horrid. It is down to Detective Inspector Bucket - the first ever detective in a British novel - to solve the labyrinthine mystery.From the peaceful countryside aristocracy to the starving of the dank London streets; from the legal profession and its hangers-on, to its numerous poor litigants; from philanthropist Jarndyce to orphan Esther and parasitic Skimpole, "Bleak House" reveals the vast complex of relationships in multi-layered Victorian society. It is classic crime fiction at its most enduring and well-loved best.
目前为止,狄更斯对英国社会司法系统,对贫富差距,对工业污染等等有着入木三分的刻画,但是我对于他书中女性形象的塑造感觉不舒服。很遗憾,他没能走在时代的前列,女性在他看来是家中天使。因此那些走出家庭内部空间,在公共空间进行活动的女性形象被塑造成负面消极,例如Mrs...
评分费时20天,完成了这部1122页60万字的大作,疲累十分,如一位网友评论,其实冗长的不是字数而是其讲故事的方式,按我的想法,以三分之一的篇幅完全可以轻松完成,怎么能那么啰嗦呢,同一件事,这个说完了那个再来一遍都说完了再议论个长篇。 再之,读完感受这部作品最大的问题一...
评分本书作者批判了腐朽的资本主义及其法制制度,揭露了这种罪恶制度对人性的摧残。 (果然是不会写这种体) 实际上不怪我用这种腔调,除了这些我实在看不出本书还有什么意义。 首先,本书女主是圣母兼万人迷。要是现在的网文女主有其中一个属性,就够被人骂个狗血淋头了,更何况...
评分古话云“儒以文乱法,侠以武犯禁”,而统治者又以权力作恶,那么对于平民百姓来说,怎么样才能保证自己的人身财产安全呢?于是人们想到了法律,这也是西方文明的核心之一。所以律师法官一职成为最受人尊重并且是地位高尚的职业。西方舆论也大力宣扬“法律把权力关进笼子”,可...
评分初见它时,很旧了。灰暗的封面,泛黄的书页,看起来温厚而忧郁,仿佛是一个立意要陪伴你许久的朋友。那年冬天,那个阴郁而寒冷的一月,几乎每天都在下雨,我闭门不出,呆在自己的屋子里,几乎每天我都在阅读这部小说,它散发着旧书特有的一种霉味,蒙尘的封面就像书内描写的被...
