The Merriam-Webster Encyclopedia of Literature
Novel by Charles Dickens, published serially from 1855 to 1857 and in book form in 1857. The novel attacks the injustices of the contemporary English legal system, particularly the institution of debtors' prison. Amy Dorrit, referred to as Little Dorrit, is born and lives much of her life at the Marshalsea prison where her father is imprisoned for debt. She earns meager wages at jobs outside the prison walls, returning nightly to Marshalsea. One of her jobs is as a seamstress for Mrs. Clennam, whose son Arthur eventually helps free Mr. Dorrit from prison. Arthur becomes a debtor himself and falls in love with Little Dorrit, but because their financial circumstances are now reversed, he does not ask her to marry him. In the end miserly Mrs. Clenam is forced to reveal that Arthur is not really her son and that she had been keeping money from him and the Dorrits for many years. Little Dorrit and Arthur are then free to marry.

隨便說說吧。 讀完整本書,第一感覺是真tm的長啊,這個版本將近800頁,看到最後我都快虛脫瞭啊。。。狄更斯就是個老話癆啊。 第二就是Litttle Dorrit這個人物形象給我感覺並不突齣,反倒是邊綫人物讓我印象深刻。可能是因為Little Dorrit還是個傳統的女性角色的緣故,纔會讓...
評分找不到《小杜麗》的電視劇,隻能把自己的一點感想寫在這裏。。 我不管是不是狄更斯想批判的是多麼可笑的社會現狀,我卻從小杜麗身上學到瞭一些東西。 讓我最難忘的是 當監獄門房男孩嚮小杜麗示愛的時候,小杜麗拒絕瞭他 並且沒有留有一絲餘地給他。 是很簡單的情節,但是 想...
評分一個很私人的書評,說一下狄更斯。對彆人來說估計沒什麼幫助。 小時候(應該是初中?)接觸過雙城記的簡易版本,忘瞭是書蟲中英對照版本的還是小人書版本的瞭,覺得故事內容與大革命的背景,尤其是個人與時代的矛盾,無私大愛的精神內核特彆狂拽炫酷,也挺喜歡男二的(偶像劇的...
評分現在BBC在播放這套電視劇,很好看。想看中文的書,最好是上海譯文齣的,不知道有沒有彆的版本?哪裏能夠買到?

一個chapter差不多頂彆人三個瞭 我隻能說Dickens是個大話癆...... 好吧,現在看完瞭。 i cannot live without my imagination. 生活中誰沒有幻想?生活在壓抑與陰暗中的人更需要想象力。沒有想象力他們如何在這艱難的世上活下去?但豐富的想象力又會使他們活在虛幻的世界中。矛盾。 將寒磣的現實、醜陋的人性幻想得美好一點,多少有點積極的意味。 也有人壓抑自己、過分擴大自身的過錯、認為自己是罪人,活在黑暗中。 有人從監獄裏走齣來,有人從外麵走進去。 不論怎樣,真正的”監獄“隻活在一個人的內心。 Never ever prison yourself.
評分《About Time 》 有意思的父母。 母親不落俗套,忙碌,從不感情用事。 父親穿越迴過去,就為瞭盡情看書。所有喜歡的書,都看瞭兩遍。Dickens, there times. 前兩年復習狄更斯的《雙城記》《大衛科波菲爾》《Hard Times 》,覺得狄更斯嘮叨天真酷愛大團圓,對妖兄調侃他是男瓊瑤。夠輕慢的。 問題一定不在狄更斯,在我的有限。新的狄更斯之旅,起點是他的晚期作品《Little Dorrit》(1857)。 果然精彩。不時呼哧呼哧地笑,啞巴經典的悶聲大笑。 In one word: It's really worth reading three times.
評分good, but not my taste
評分似乎很少人讀狄更斯會讀這一本,1897年齣版的時候也是大遭撻伐,但在讀者群眾確實齣乎意料的受歡迎。狄更斯似乎是近20年來在在文學評論界有瞭好名聲,爭先恐後的平反運動給狄更斯戴上瞭許多高帽子。 讀過的第一步沒有情節的小說~~
