#The Trembling of a Leaf#很奇怪每个故事读到临近末尾时都有种莫名的熟悉感。 #Mackintosh#恶人临终的一丝善仿佛就将前事一笔勾销,善良的人做了一点点恶就不堪重负,多么不公平的世界。 #The Fall of Edward Barnard# 特别特别喜欢这一篇,倒不会据此做出对两种生活的评判和选择,或许Maugham暗示了自己的倾向,但我喜欢的是评判的态度,生活是不同的,对成功和幸福的定义是不同的,至于具体哪一种并没有对错和优劣的绝对结论,只有你认为什么样的生活是你想要的、让你满足的,并且坚持自己的看法、用自己的方式始终保持这样心满意足的状态、不后悔。 #Red# "The tragedy of love is not death or separation. How long do you think it would have been before one or other of them ceased to care? Oh, it is dreadfully bitter to look at a woman whom you have loved with all your heart and soul, so that you felt you could not bear to let her out of your sight, and realize that you would not mind if you never saw her again. The tragedy of love is indifference." #The Pool# 不想感慨爱情,感慨一下白人和土著间的种族歧视,感慨一下颠古不破的“门当户对”。 #Honolulu# 哈哈哈哈好样的姑娘【跟华人厨师跑了之后更是了。 #Rain# 本以为是揭露宗教堂而皇之打着“正确”的旗号、以威胁手段逼人就范的邪恶面,实际上还是在展现人性和欲望,格局看似小了,但更贴近现实。
