这部小说非常适合任何身处长期恋爱关系中,或是意识到自己的大部分社交时间都花在与其他情侣夫妻相处上的人。它深刻地提醒了我们:婚姻是一场马拉松,而非百米冲刺。

……故意把生活极度简化。她笔下的人物脱离现实,非黑即白。每个人要么是超级英雄,要么就是猥琐小人。拿来当消遣读读还行,别的就别指望了。去读读 Wallace Stegner 的《渡向安全》(Crossing to Safety)吧。那是一部极其优美的书,写了两对夫妇之间结下的深厚羁绊。是我最近读过最喜欢的一部作品。
…intentionally oversimplify life. Her characters are not realistic and are completely binary. Everyone is either a superhero or a weasel. This makes for entertaining reading, but not much else. Read "Crossing to Safety" by Wallace Stegner. It is a brautiful book about an intense relationship forged between two couples. It's my favorite thing I've read recently.
……斯坦贝克在创作《伊甸之东》(East of Eden)期间,每天写给编辑的书信合集。它就像一扇迷人的窗口,让人得以窥见一位大师如何精心雕琢出一部传世杰作。其他挚爱还有:Wallace Stegner 的《渡向安全》、海明威的《在我们的时代》(In Our Time)、John Fowles 的《大法师》(The Magus)、《百年孤独》、《白鲸》(这或许是所有现代奇幻小说的先驱?)、《异乡异客》(Stranger in a Strange Land)以及《无尽的玩笑》(Infinite Jest)。我……
…collection of letters Steinbeck wrote to his editor every day as he was writing East of Eden. It's a fascinating window into the mind of a master deliberately creating a masterpiece. Other favorites: Crossing to Safety by Wallace Stegner, In Our Time by Hemingway, The Magus by John Fowles, 100 years of solitude, Moby Dick (perhaps a precursor to all modern fantasy?) Stranger in a Strange Land, and Infinite Jest. I've…
……从怪物的视角来展开。可惜他年纪轻轻就死于摩托车事故,所以我们没能看到他这种写法的更多范例。另一位我觉得他会很欣赏的现代作家是 Wallace Stegner。《渡向安全》和《安息角》(Angle of Repose)都写得极其精彩。
…the monster's perspective. Sadly he died young in a motorcycle accident, so we didn't get many examples of his approach. Another modern writer that I think he would have approved of is Wallace Stegner. Crossing to Safety and Angle of Repose are both wonderful.
……20世纪40年代及更早时期学术界的贫困已经被人们遗忘了。但如果你回顾一下那个时期的书籍——Jacques Barzun 在《美国的老师》(Teacher in America)里的散文随笔、乌拉姆(Ulam)的回忆录、Wallace Stegner 的小说《渡向安全》的某些篇章——你就会发现,那时的生活并没有多安稳,也绝非总是称心如意的。我自己是个程序员。我对钱倒没有执念——当然,如果你一直财务宽裕不愁吃穿,说这话自然很轻松……
…academic poverty in the 1940s and before were forgotten. But if you look back at books about that time--Jacques Barzun's essays in Teacher in America, Ulam's memoirs, parts of Wallace Stegner's novel Crossing to Safety--you'll see that it wasn't an especially secure life, and not always a contented one. I work as a programmer. I am not obsessed with money--a very easy thing to say if you've been comfortably solvent…
书单不错。挑个小刺(Nit):《渡向安全》(Crossing to Safety)是 Wallace Stegner 写的。
Good list. Nit: Crossing to Safety is Wallace Stegner
