一位富有的美国艺术收藏家及其女儿 Maggie,为了自身以及为自己增添更大的荣耀,各自“买下”了一位年轻美貌的妻子和一位出身高贵的丈夫。他们并不知道 Charlotte 与 Prince Amerigo 曾是旧情人,更不知道就在亲王大婚前夕,两人曾在一间古董店里发现了一只带有隐秘瑕疵的金碗。

Hacker News 上怎么说

  • ……穿过高尔夫球场往内陆走。两条路都让人忍不住想拐个弯走向它。他从上百个角度、上千种光线与氛围条件下认识了它……亨利·詹姆斯(Henry James)的《金碗》(The Golden Bowl)和他晚期的另外几部小说堪称艺术奇迹,可以说是“能存在本身就是个奇迹”,除了普鲁斯特(Proust)可能沾点边,没有任何别的作品像它们!

    …inland across the golf-links. Either path offers tempting digressions towards it. He comes to know it from a hundred aspects and under a thousand conditions of light and atmosphere…. Henry James's _The Golden Bowl_ and a few other of his late novels are kind of a miracle of art, as in it's miraculous that they exist and nothing else really resembles them outside of maybe Proust!

  • 你可真促狭。我坦白:a)我从来没能硬着头皮啃完《金碗》(The Golden Bowl)或《鸽翼》(The Wings of the Dove);b)我无法想象人生——更别提闲暇时间了——能长到足以读完140卷的亨利·詹姆斯书信集。而且,我真好奇读这些玩意儿到底能唬住谁……

    Naughty you. I confess that a) I have never been able to fight my way through The Golden Bowl or The Wings of the Dove, and that b) I can't imagine that life, let only leisure, is long enough for 140 volumes of Henry James's letter. Also, I wonder who in the world one would impress by reading…

  • ……在我看来与斯科特(Scott)所写的内容有些风马牛不相及。我必须承认,虽然我觉得詹姆斯早期和中期的作品很好读,但我多次尝试硬啃《金碗》(The Golden Bowl)或《鸽翼》(The Wings of the Dove),每一次都没看多少就败退了。

    …strikes me as somewhat orthogonal to what Scott was writing of. I must say that while I find middle and early James very readable, I have tried and failed more than once to read any distance into The Golden Bowl or The Wings of the Dove.

  • ……难度递增排序:0) 马尔克斯的《族长的秋天》(The autumn of the patriarch) 1) 默文·皮克的《歌门鬼城》(Gormenghast)系列 2) 亨利·詹姆斯的第三创作期(《鸽翼》、《使节》与《金碗》) 3) 赫尔曼·布洛赫的《维吉尔之死》(The Death of Virgil)。我确实建议试试《歌门鬼城》,这是一部文笔神级的奇幻系列。

    …increasing order of difficulty: 0) The autumn of the patriarch, by Marquez 1) Gormenghast series, by Mervyn Peake 2) The third period of Henry James (The Wings of the Dove, The Ambassadors, and The Golden Bowl). 3) The Death of Virgil, by Hermann Broch I do suggest trying Gormenghast, it's an amazingly written fantasy series.

  • ……《纠正》(The Corrections),但我觉得那读起来挺直接的。《白鲸》(Moby Dick)、《没有个性的人》(The Man Without Qualities)和《堂吉诃德》(Don Quixote)篇幅都很长,但在我看来阅读体验都很顺畅,绝不像《追忆似水年华》(Remembrance of Things Past)或《金碗》(The Golden Bowl)那样难啃。

    …Corrections, but it struck me as straightforward reading. Moby Dick, The Man Without Qualities, and Don Quixote are long, but to my notion very readable in a way that Remembrance of Things Past or The Golden Bowl are not.
