First published in 1905, "The House of Mirth" shocked the New York society it so deftly chronicles, portraying the moral, social, and economic restraints on a woman who dared to claim the privileges of marriage without assuming the responsibilities. Lily Bart, beautiful, witty, and sophisticated, is accepted by "old money" and courted by the growing tribe of nouveaux riches. But as she nears 30, her foothold becomes precarious; a poor girl with expensive tastes, she needs a husband to preserve her social standing and to maintain her life in the luxury she has come to expect. While many have sought her, something--fastidiousness or integrity--prevents her from making a "suitable" match.

评分“智者的心，住在哀伤之家；愚者的心，住在欢乐之家”。 莉莉·芭特灿烂短暂如流星的一生命运，正是在这两级间的挣扎。一卷跌宕起伏的感情史，一幅衣香鬓影的纽约风情画，一个无法泯灭最终良心的困顿灵魂，一个上流阶层版本的《嘉利妹妹》，又一出美国悲剧。 本书是伊迪丝·华...
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，...
