具体描述
The greatest Chinese novel of the twentieth century. Fortress Besieged is a classic of world literature, a masterpiece of parodic fiction that plays with Western literary traditions, philosophy, and middle-class Chinese society in the Republican era. Set on the eve of the Sino-Japanese War, our hapless hero Fang Hung-chien (à la Emma Bovary), with no particular goal in life and with a bogus degree from a fake American university in hand, returns home to Shanghai. On the French liner home, he meets two Chinese beauties, Miss Su and Miss Pao. Qian writes, "With Miss Pao it wasn't a matter of heart or soul. She hadn't any change of heart, since she didn't have a heart." In a sort of painful comedy, Fang obtains a teaching post at a newly established university where the effete pseudo-intellectuals he encounters in academia become the butt of Qian's merciless satire. Soon Fang is trapped into a marriage of Nabokovian proportions of distress and absurdity. Recalling Fielding's Tom Jones in its farcical litany of misadventures and Flaubert's "style indirect libre," Fortress Besieged is its own unique feast of delights. The translators Jeanne Kelly and Nathan K. Mao have breathed life into the English translation.

读后感
钱钟书先生的《围城》是不敢来评的，只记录一些感受罢了。 注：较长，请选择性阅读。 吃葡萄的人 八年前，我上高三，正在为高考没日没夜的做模拟试题。前一天做完的卷子，第二天上课时语文老师会讲其中的一两道试题。某天他讲了一道阅读理解题，题目是：有两种人吃葡萄的人，...
评分你的周遭有没有这样的同学或者朋友，他们的言谈举止中，总是有意无心的透露或者暗示，他正在或者曾经在某大英帝国或其所属联邦国留洋读过书，他们总是恨不得在每次谈话聊天的开头或者结尾都加上一句“兄弟我在剑桥读书的时候”，那神态气势仿佛刚刚参加完英国伦敦皇家贵族种...
评分钱钟书是比喻和通感的高手，也很懂得世故人情，加上学者式的幽默感，《围城》是个可以常看常新的书，这一类书的作者并不真诚，存了心要编一个好玩的故事哄骗读者，骗你的笑，你的泪，你的感叹，然后，他在丛中大笑。文革那些年，不知道为何这么聪明的一个人，非要拒绝剑桥牛津...

评分In a certain age, I did believe that marriage is like a fortress besiedged. I was the one outside, and still had enough curiosity left for marriage, I wanted to go in. Now I have none, and marriage to me, is like a war field constantly in turmoil. I decide to quit all my delusions left. BTW, the translation is as insipid as plain boiled water.

评分Kelly译的也是让人迷醉，把Chien那么油的半文半白的东西完全做成大白话...可惜了一部算是精品的华语小说了
