Martin Chuzzlewit pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載 2024
The greed of his family has led wealthy old Martin Chuzzlewit to become suspicious and misanthropic, leaving his Grandson and namesake to make his own way in the world. And so Young Martin sets out from the Wiltshire home of his supposed champion, the scheming architect Pecksniff, to seed his fortune in America. In depicting Martin's Journey Dickens created many vividly realized figures: the brutish lout Jonas Chuzzlewit, plotting jto gain the family fortune; Martin's optimistic manservant Mark Tapley; gentle Tom Pinch; and the drunken and corrupt private nurse Mrs Gamp. With its portrayal of greed, blackmail and murder, and its searing satire on America, Dicken's novel is a powerful and blackly comic story of hypocrisy and redemption.
終於讀完瞭狄更斯所有長篇。狄更斯說《Martin Chuzzlewit》是“in a hundred points immeasurably the best of [his] stories”。這部跟《聖誕頌歌》同時期的小說,也探討瞭人類的貪婪與自私,不知道狄更斯晚年何以變得如此陰暗。最讓我驚訝的是,是狄更斯居然1844年就寫齣瞭“美國夢的幻滅”,太有前瞻性瞭吧。奈何結局生硬,我猜老瞿述偉之前都是裝病!
