伊迪丝·华顿(Edith Wharton, 1862-1937)是纽约一个名门望族琼斯家的女儿。和她的朋友亨利·詹姆斯一样,她在家中接受了良好的教育,后来多次出国旅行。1885年她和一个比她大十三岁的有钱的波士顿人爱德华·华顿结了婚。此人性格虽好,但他们却很少共同之处,几年以后,爱德华患了精神病,最终导致了他们的离婚,从此以后,伊迪丝长住巴黎,直到1937年去世。
伊迪丝·华顿起初是为了排遣上流社会家庭生活的苦闷而开始写作的。她从1880年开始发表小说,1889年第一部短篇小说集问世,获得了意外的成功。1905年长篇小说《快乐之家》出版,使她成了20世纪前二十年最受欢迎的美国作家。1920年出版的《纯真年代》为她获得了普利策奖。她一共写了十九部中长篇小说,出版过十一本短篇小说集,还有大量的非小说作品。

这本《纯真年代》是在一声声感叹中阅读完的。相对于狄更斯、莫泊桑、歌德、哈代这些伟大男性作家创作的作品而言,我更喜欢诸如伊迪丝华顿这样的女作家笔下产生的作品,也许是出于我刚刚学会欣赏小说的时候(之前也读过几本,但却根本称不上是欣赏)所研读的几部作品都是出自英...
评分 评分 评分让原文自己来说吧。《纯真年代》发表于1920年,作者伊迪斯.华顿(edith wharton 1862-1937,美国小说家,得过普利策奖),译林出版社,2002.01第一版。(加印了两次,估计是电影的作用) btw,电影是马丁.斯科塞斯的大作,演员分别是丹尼尔.戴.刘易斯,米歇尔.菲佛,...
评分在“Sex and the city”中,作者把如今的纽约叙述成了一个与沃顿那个年代相反的The Age of UNinnocencei。这样的论点引发了我对伊迪丝沃顿的兴趣。 先后品读了她的成名之作“快乐之家”及叠峰作品“纯真年代”。刚开始的5页纸,除了感受于出自同一作者之外,更多的是内心对相...
书挺难懂的,很多介绍背景的段落,感觉故事占的比例并不多。诺顿这本后面加了很多背景知识介绍,还有批评文章,但真的看不下去,怎么那么多。
评分The novel is sort of boring, although the ending is impressive. The more important aspect of this book is the critic edition which contains the background, related theory and critic essays of this novel. It introduces me about how Americans analyze a novel. I can learn from it in my later research on other novels.
