具體描述
(Book Jacket Status: Jacketed)
The Portrait of a Lady is the most stunning achievement of Henry James's early period--in the 1860s and '70s when he was transforming himself from a talented young American into a resident of Europe, a citizen of the world, and one of the greatest novelists of modern times. A kind of delight at the success of this transformation informs every page of this masterpiece. Isabel Archer, a beautiful, intelligent, and headstrong American girl newly endowed with wealth and embarked in Europe on a treacherous journey to self-knowledge, is delineated with a magnificence that is at once casual and tense with force and insight. The characters with whom she is entangled--the good man and the evil one, between whom she wavers, and the mysterious witchlike woman with whom she must do battle--are each rendered with a virtuosity that suggests dazzling imaginative powers. And the scene painting--in England and Italy--provides a continuous visual pleasure while always remaining crucial to the larger drama.

評分读这本书前几章时，乃至整部小说的阅读过程中，我常常几乎以为自己打开的是简·奥斯汀的第七本小说（类似她的女同胞J·K·罗琳，最厚的一本）。的确，这位在他72岁时终于加入英国国籍的美国人，在小说开篇时以优雅闲适的语言——这语言常被认为是不可翻译的，但博尔赫斯说：“...
評分讀的第一本亨利詹姆斯，他以前是我的小說盲點，慚愧。這本在看到書之前老早有真人形象在腦中了……都怪我們電視臺動不動就播一遍簡康萍導的電影版，這些年來瞄到過四五遍不止，雖然每次都是缺頭少尾、看到哪裡是哪裡的。結果有一次總算看到了女主角的美國追求者，咦，像Viggo，...
評分看完了书，把坎皮恩的同名电影找出来重看了一遍，有趣的是导演在处理女主角和奥斯蒙德的恋情上突出了性的吸引，后者将女儿抱在腿上，手指抚摸女儿的手背给了女主很大的刺激，这是个很好玩的视角，因为原著给我的感觉完全是反的，不远万里随君行的美国追求者反而最有男子气概，...
