Patricia Highsmith笔下的世界向来充斥着普通人,而每个人都有能力犯下极其寻常的罪行。这一主题从一开始便已显露,她的处女作Strangers on a Train便曾令读者群体为之震动。在这里,我们遇到了Guy Haines和Charles Anthony Bruno这两位同乘一趟列车的乘客。然而,Guy是一位正在经历离婚的成功建筑师,Bruno却是一个虐待狂般的精神病患者,他诱骗Guy互相交换杀人目标。“有些人死了反而更好,”Bruno评论道,“比如你的妻子,还有我的父亲。”随着Bruno开始付诸行动……

……女同性恋浪漫故事。这部作品及其改编电影正是她成为同志偶像的原因——两者都很受欢迎且深受喜爱。海史密斯在凭借《火车怪客》(Strangers on a Train)大获成功后,用笔名出版了《盐的代价》(The Price of Salt),前者正是由你提到的那些男性角色推动的。据我所知,《盐的代价》更直接地取材于她的个人生活,或者说是她的幻想,而这也是她使用……的部分原因。
…lesbian romance. This work and its movie adaptation are the reason she's a gay icon - both are popular and well-loved. Highsmith published The Price of Salt under a pseudonym after her success with "Strangers on a Train", which is driven by the masculine characters you mention. From what I can tell, The Price of Salt is more directly based on her personal life, or rather her fantasies, and part of the reason she used…
……纳博科夫的《暗室红粉》(Laughter in the Dark)。## Cal Newport 的《深度工作》(Deep Work)## 近藤麻理惠的《怦然心动的人生整理魔法》(The life changing magic of tidying up)## Cal Newport 的《优秀到不能被忽视》(So good they can’t ignore you)## Manu Joseph 的《严肃男人》(Serious men)## 《火车怪客》(Strangers on a train)## 萨尔·可汗的《一世界教育》(One world education,强烈推荐)从这本书里能得到好几个精彩的启发,我尝试列一下:- 目前的教育模式已经坏掉了。普鲁士体制……
…Laughter in the Dark by Nabokov. ## Deep Work by Cal Newport ## The life changing magic of tidying up by Marie Kondo ## So good they can’t ignore you by Cal Newport ## Serious men by Manu Joseph ## Strangers on a train ## One world education by Sal Khan (Highly recommend it) There are several wonderful takeaways from the book which I will try to list : - The current model of education is broken. The Prussian system…
我觉得 SEC 肯定早就考虑过出现“火车怪客”(Strangers on a Train)式情况的可能性了:内部人士找一个匿名的第三方去实施犯罪,指望日后能拿到一定比例的分成。
I feel like the SEC must have already taken into account the possibility of a "Strangers on a Train" situation where an insider tracks down an anonymous third party to commit the crime with the expectation of being paid back a percentage at some later date.
文章提到了《火车怪客》(Strangers on a Train),我既没看过也没读过,不过在火车上跟人闲聊确实让我有过不少挺有趣的经历。火车是个天然的社交场景,你很容易就能跟人聊上好长一段……
The article mentions "Strangers on a Train" which I've never seen or read but I've had a number of really interesting encounters from train talk. It's a natural place to end up in a scenario where you could chat with someone for a decently long…
