一般看来,如果译者的笔力够用,并明了原文作者最为看重的就是作品的开篇,它的第一节、第一个句子的话,并在这里同样下过功夫的话,那么这译者应该还算不错。 原文第一段为五句,最后两句是: Chunks of the bridge fell on top of it.Nothing much was left of her but c...
评分如果没记错,艾丽丝和劳拉都是金发碧眼,Blonde,这是个刺眼的字母,胸也是B,亚历克斯的故事里的姑娘也是个金发的B。我也记得blonde在英文里的言外之义,“你的头发金黄金黄的,太惹眼了。金发女郎就像是小白鼠;小白鼠只能关在笼子里。它们在自然界的生命不长。它们太引人注...
评分叙述的方式往往可以决定许多事情。比如说当艾丽斯写了一整本回忆录,却刻意地略掉了她和亚历克斯之间发生的一切,突然可以让人明白和他在一起的时间在她心中的位置。即使那是因为这大概是她乏善可陈的人生中唯一值得回忆的地方。 就这样一点埋藏在她心里的故事,甚至没有十年时...
评分很多年以前读到关于《狂恋大提琴》的评论时,只觉得那是不忍卒读的文字。心下还猜想:或者,这是安妮宝贝刻意为之的妖异?及到真将那一张DVD推入笔记本,在一个夏夜的两小时之后,才发现电影本身比那一篇评论要厚重许多,更残酷太多。 妹妹赤裸着身体在树林里遍体鳞伤,哭泣...

Laura Chase's older sister Iris, married at eighteen to a politically prominent industrialist but now poor and eighty-two, is living in Port Ticonderoga, a town dominated by their once-prosperous family before the First War. While coping with her unreliable body, Iris reflects on her far from exemplary life, in particular the events surrounding her sister's tragic death. Chief among these was the publication of The Blind Assassin, a novel which earned the dead Laura Chase not only notoriety but also a devoted cult following. Sexually explicit for its time, The Blind Assassin describes a risky affair in the turbulent thirties between a wealthy young woman and a man on the run. During their secret meetings in rented rooms, the lovers concoct a pulp fantasy set on Planet Zycron. As the invented story twists through love and sacrifice and betrayal, so does the real one; while events in both move closer to war and catastrophe. By turns lyrical, outrageous, formidable, compelling and funny, this is a novel filled with deep humour and dark drama.
