Somewhere in this book, Wharton observes that clever liars always come up with good stories to back up their fabrications, but that really clever liars don't bother to explain anything at all. This is the kind of insight that makes The Age of Innocence so indispensable. Wharton's story of the upper classes of Old New York, and Newland Archer's impossible love for the disgraced Countess Olenska, is a perfectly wrought book about an era when upper-class culture in this country was still a mixture of American and European extracts, and when "society" had rules as rigid as any in history.

内容简介

Edith Wharton's masterpiece brings to life the grandeur and hypocrisy of a gilded age. Set among the very rich in 1870s New York, it tells the story of Newland Archer, a young lawyer engaged to marry virginal socialite May Welland, when he meets her cousin, Countess Ellen Olenska, a woman unbound by convention and surrounded by scandal. As all three are drawn into a love triangle filled with sensuality, subtlety, and betrayal, Archer faces a harrowing choice between happiness and the social code that has ruled his life. The resulting tale of thwarted love is filled with irony and surprise, struggle and acceptance. Recipient of the first Pulitzer Prize for fiction ever awarded to a woman, this great novel paints a timeless portrait of "society" still unmatched in American literature—an arbitrary, capricious social elite that professes inviolable standards but readily abandons them for greed and desire.

作者简介

The upper stratum of New York society into which Edith Wharton was born in 1862 provided her with an abundance of material as a novelist but did not encourage her growth as an artist. Educated by tutors and governesses, she was raised for only one career: marriage. But her marriage, in 1885, to Edward Wharton was an emotional disappointment, if not a disaster. She suffered the first of a series of nervous breakdowns in 1894. In spite of the strain of her marriage, or perhaps because of it, she began to write fiction and published her first story in 1889.

Her first published book was a guide to interior decorating, but this was followed by several novels and story collections. They were written while the Whartons lived in Newport and New York, traveled in Europe, and built their grand home, The Mount, in Lenox, Massachusetts. In Europe, she met Henry James, who became her good friend, traveling companion, and the sternest but most careful critic of her fiction. The House of Mirth (1905) was both a resounding critical success and a bestseller, as was Ethan Frome (1911). In 1913 the Whartons were divorced, and Edith took up permanent residence in France. Her subject, however, remained America, especially the moneyed New York of her youth. Her great satiric novel, The Custom of the Country was published in 1913 and The Age of Innocence won her the Pulitzer Prize in 1921.

In her later years, she enjoyed the admiration of a new generation of writers, including Sinclair Lewis and F. Scott Fitzgerald. In all, she wrote some thirty books, including an autobiography. A Backwards Glance (1934). She died at her villa near Paris in 1937.,,

大学历史教授赫索格（《赫索格》）被妻子抛弃，后者跟他装了假腿的花花公子朋友结成新欢。于是，敏感的精神世界遭到明显打击，受到痛苦蹂躏的脸，变得憔悴，特别是那对眼睛，瞳孔暗淡，连自己看了也会吓得脸色发白。孤独伤感使他感到胸胀气喘，但是，自我折磨无法改变残酷的事实。他只好对自己说，“千万别哭出来，你这个傻瓜！要么活着，要么去死，别来苦苦啼啼的煞风景。”对赫索格来说，遭受感情打击后，那扇紧闭的心门，只有靠他自己勇敢开启。 　　 　　而《秘密花园》里，驼背庄园主克雷文先生面临同样打击。他钟情的妻子突然去世。从此伤感失落，对生活失去友善和耐心。他锁上妻子的美丽花园，埋掉钥匙，于是，整整十年，驼背的内心象那座密闭的花园一样荒芜，阴郁，死气沉沉。偶然的机会，女孩玛丽在胸脯鲜红的知更鸟的帮助下，找到了花园的钥匙。她冒然闯入，精心耕耘数月，花园终于恢复生机。而克雷文先生迟钝冷漠的感官也开始复苏。他重新体会到什么是爱，什么是快乐。所以，在这里，女孩玛丽就是一把钥匙，她在打开通往繁花的园门的同时，也就打开了克雷文先生的心。 　　　　事实上，作为钥匙的玛丽自身也经历了一场个性的演变。或者说，隐藏在她内心深处感受美好的细胞经过挖掘，终于在某一天结束休眠，进入正常工作状态。面黄肌瘦的女孩，物质生活富裕，但缺少母爱和关怀，她专横、乖戾、自私、冷漠，父母死于霍乱后，被只身送往性情同样古怪的驼背姨父身边。不想辽阔的沼泽地上的新鲜空气给她滋润，苦瓜脸日渐丰满红润，呈现出发自内心的愉悦。同时，她的干涸的精神世界逐渐丰富，表现在她对外界的美的认同，做一件事情的专注。真是奇迹呀。跟几个月前相比，小女孩几乎焕然一新。而促使玛丽性情大改的原因只有一个，她找到了开启快乐的钥匙。 　　　钥匙之一，玛莎。健康年轻的女仆。幸福在她眼里就是调理好自己的胃口，可以在温暖的炉台边，放开肚皮喝下拌了糖浆的白粥和面包。 　　 　　钥匙之二，玛莎的妈妈。十二个孩子的母亲。贫穷但拥有勤劳双手和宽阔胸襟。天生的乐天派和热心肠。温良仁慈。最令人感动也最符合母亲身份的行为：从玛莎上缴的薪水里拿出两便士为孤独的玛丽买一根红蓝手柄的跳绳。 　　　　钥匙之三，迪肯。穷人家的孩子。玛莎的弟弟。成天在沼泽地里奔跑玩耍，即使用棍子和石头也可以玩得不亦乐乎。他是狐狸和乌鸦的朋友。能听懂知更鸟说话。熟悉河谷里的百合花，风铃草，吊钟花。简直就是自由的兔子。 　　　　钥匙之四，大自然。它有多美好呢？可爱的植物生机盎然。小动物忙着筑巢，掘洞，鸣叫，吟唱。石楠花丛散发着芬芳。啊，只要往泥土里撒些种子，那里就能长出一点什么，然后看着它们慢慢成长。 　　　　你会说，谁不需要一把钥匙呢。问题是如何寻了它，而它正好又是契合的一把。是啊，真是头痛。不过无论怎样，生活着，总是要放低一些姿态才好吧。喜欢“稳扎”这个词。稳扎在生活的土壤中，才叫踏实。我想说，老天啊，永远别钝了我的感知能力，无论发生什么。无论何时，都可以在时光的罅隙里，从容感受美的，快乐的，悲伤的，感受饥肠辘辘，疯狂激越…
