The House of Mirth pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2024
The House of Mirth tells the story of Lily Bart, aged 29, beautiful, impoverished and in need of a rich husband to safeguard her place in the social elite, and to support her expensive habits - her clothes, her charities and her gambling. Unwilling to marry without both love and money, Lily becomes vulnerable to the kind of gossip and slander which attach to a girl who has been on the marriage market for too long. Wharton charts the course of Lily's life, providing, along the way, a wider picture of a society in transition, a rapidly changing New York where the old certainties of manners, morals and family have disappeared and the individual has become an expendable commodity.

评分“淡淡的忧伤”,这是雕爷牛腩家的一道前点,其实就是一颗煮鸡蛋,面对诧异的餐客,服务员操着不太标准的普通话,讲着这颗鸡蛋顾名不可思义的做法,脸上的面纱似乎在遮掩背后嘲弄的笑容。这颗在低温的温水中煮熟的鸡蛋,仿佛因为这文艺范儿的名字也显露出一种异常优雅的气质,...
评分《欢乐之家》是伊迪丝华顿的代表作之一,华顿生于1862年,卒于1937年,而她的主要作品都产生于20世纪,她一生中大部分的时光都在欧洲度过,但她作品中的大部分人物都是土生土长的美国人,有别于亨利詹姆斯笔下的旅欧美国人,华顿早年受不幸婚姻的羁绊,抑郁烦闷,但她的文学实...
