內容簡介

Charles Dickens’s story of selfless Little Nell and her ailing grandfather and their persecution by the magnificently malignant villain Quilp has seized the imaginations and wrung the hearts of generations of readers.

Dickens’s talent was superabundant in every way: in his dramatic force and his massive productivity, in his almost surreal comic power, in his compassion and thirst for justice, and in the imaginative pressure he brought to bear on even the most incidental of his characters. The delightfully various figures in The Old Curiosity Shop range memorably from jaunty Dick Swiveller and his little half-starved Marchioness to the hard-hearted siblings Sampson and Sally Brass, jovial Mrs. Jarley, devoted Kit Nubbles, the hunchbacked Daniel Quilp, and, of course, tragic Little Nell herself. Dickens’s depiction of the fate of his main characters is famously harrowing and unfailingly suspenseful, but not the least of its charms is that it is embellished with a supporting cast of figures as grotesque and colorful as anything in the Old Curiosity Shop itself.

　　上麵提到的伊麗莎、約翰和喬奇安娜·裏德，這時候都在休憩室裏，正簇擁在他們的母親周圍，她斜靠在爐邊的沙發上，心愛的兒女都在身旁（這忽兒既不爭吵，又不哭鬧），看上去很是快活。她沒讓我和他們在一起；她說她很遺憾，不得不叫我離他們遠一點；她真的不能把隻給知足快樂的小孩的那些特權給我，除非是白茜告訴瞭她，而且還要她自己親眼看到，我確實是在認認真真地努力培養一種更加天真隨和的性情，一種更加活潑可愛的態度——大概是更輕快、更坦率、更自然的一種什麼吧。

狄更斯1812年齣生於英國樸次茅斯，是海軍職員約翰·狄更斯和伊麗莎白·巴洛所生的第二個孩子。狄更斯5歲時全傢就遷居占鬆，10歲時又搬到康登鎮（今屬倫敦）。

狄更斯早年傢境小康，小時候曾經在一所私立學校接受過一段時間的教育，但是父母經常大宴賓客，金錢上沒有節製，12歲時，狄更斯的父親就因債務問題而入獄，一傢人隨著父親遷至牢房居住，狄更斯也因此被送到倫敦一傢鞋油場當學徒，每天工作10個小時。或許是由於這段經曆，備嘗艱辛、屈辱，看盡人情冷暖，使得狄更斯的作品更關注底層社會勞動人民的生活狀態。小說《大衛·科波菲爾》中，就是描寫瞭自己這一段遭遇。

　　我倒是很高興，我素來不愛遠距離的散步，特彆是在寒冷的下午。對我來說，在陰冷的黃昏迴傢實在可怕，手指和腳趾都凍僵瞭，還得聽保姆白茜的責罵，弄得心裏很不痛快，而且自己覺得體質不如伊麗莎、約翰和喬奇安娜·裏德，又感到低人一等。
