内容简介

A wonderful story of questioning, disillusionment, and conversion, Where Angels Fear to Tread tells the story of a prim English family’s encounter with the foreign land of Italy. When attractive, impulsive English widow Lilia marries Gino, a dashing and highly unsuitable Italian twelve years her junior, her snobbish former in-laws make no attempts to hide their disapproval. But their expedition to face the uncouth foreigner takes an unexpected turn when they return to Italy under tragic circumstances intending to rescue Lilia and Gino’s baby.

    3星半,后半部分争夺孩子的地方略拖沓,但高潮不错,人物冲突、不同文化国家阶级倒置人与人之间的误解也都写得蛮生动。总的来说对forster印象很好,这毕竟是他26岁写的处女作,很有才华,还想读他之后的小说。01-30

    读的时候总是想起Henry James, 同样是queer writers, 同样把小说当作严肃的艺术,同样在叙事的时候不断的挑战读者的认知,这本小说特别想James写的那些发生在意大利的故事,南北文化的碰撞中有福斯特对英国中产的辛辣嘲讽,也有他对小说这种叙事形式的革新,重复,断裂,不规则的叙事节奏,后来都在他更成功的小说(如霍华德庄园和莫里斯)中发展的更充分。02-04
