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.

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
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.
评分大概是自己的水平不够,英文版总觉得读得不痛快
十多年前读过《围城》,没有留下什么印象,只记得那个毕业于“克莱登”大学的方鸿渐,工作屡屡受挫,爱情“有心栽花花不发,无心插柳柳成荫”。 最近一年来想选择性地读一些书,却发现今日的图书犹如菜市场上的蔬菜,需要仔细挑选才能找到合意的。为节约时间...
评分不知道从何时起,“围城”已经变成了许多人抱怨当下情境的口头禅。“外面的人想进来,里面的人想出去。”这个社会好像已经习惯了这样,或者说人类贪婪的劣根性本就决定了他们无论在什么位置上都是不会满足的。就如同婚姻,当未婚者喊着“不能死无葬身之地”时,总有过来...
评分最近工作之余无聊,开始看小说,毕业扔了丢了不少书,现在能翻出来的也就几本。找到一本《围城》,开始读第三遍。 每次读这本书都有很多新的感觉。钱老先生年轻的时候,智慧之余透露着刻薄,对书中几乎每个人物都如小丑般对待,让我辈凡夫俗子读的时候有种偷窥别人内心...

评分这是我第四次读《围城》了,第一次读完《围城》便被钱先生惊人的才华所折服;第二次读是为了把第一次阅读中一些不甚理解的地方细细咀嚼;第三次读,是为了那种一气呵成读完的爽快,而从中却也惊喜的发现之前阅读所忽略的精彩细节。 而这一次再读《围城》,我是直接...
