another title for a proposed serialization in an american magazine (which didn't come into being in the end) is "a flat in london". while this title might not be as poetic as the original one, but it did point out the major element in this novel, one of the turning point for this story is brenda taking up a flat in london away form her big old estate, the hetton abbey, as well as a young man named john beaver. evelyn waugh told this story of a broken marriage while satirizing the time and society he lived in. author himself offered two endings to the story, one being a sad and reasonable one and another too-optimistic one. i personally prefer the first one for it fits the whole story and brenda doesn't deserve to be back with poor tony again. an interesting point i discovered during the reading: the title is from t.s eliot's the waste land, and t.s eliot used to gather and write together with aldous huxley. and the setting of this novel constantly remind of huxley's novel "crome yellow". all great writers are somehow connected, it seems.

He had got into a habit of loving and trusting Brenda. 多麼無奈，可Tony Last就是這樣一個令人哀其不幸怒其不爭的角色，唯一一次硬氣就是在Hetton莊園受到威脅時拒絕瞭妻子的離婚請求。有時候我覺得我對他的同情都是泛濫的，他本身就是個情感感知遲鈍的人，在他心裏兒子和妻子都比不上Hetton重要。

Gothic有神馬不好！Tony偏執守著大房子有神馬錯！（果然不能隨便到鄉下不然真的要被警察鄉匪聯手關起來變成瘋婆子或者給人讀狄更斯到死- -）

A good read. Very disquieting, very atrocious. Still savouring every line of it, oh being among the gentry is truly a nightmare.

飞快地看完了《一把尘土》，而且是在饿了两天头晕眼花的状况下。伊夫林.沃说他理想的读者是那些对作者的语言感兴趣、有闲情逸志逐字逐句阅读的人。我不是合格的读者。我只是想快速地了解一下风格，决定是否可以再买其他。 冷静，斟字斟句，字里行间暗含刻薄文雅的嘲讽。故事发...  

It's like when your dreamworld is granted to you, yet with a nightmarish tint. What would you do if you were Tony? Well, you know you cannot ever fight back, it's just up to you whether you suffer like a dumb hero or suffer a lot more and suffer interminabl...

我多么想在“寻找一座城市”这一章前终卷，给托尼拉斯特的哥特式世界留个生存空间。 老好人托尼拉斯特，是个单纯的人，守着他的赫顿庄园，除此之外哪儿也不想去。世界上没有一个地方比得上他的家，他的赫顿是理想化的赫顿，假象中的风向标、小尖塔、滴水嘴、城垛、穹棱和窗格...
