具体描述

内容简介

Larry Darrell is a young American in search of the absolute. The progress of his spiritual odyssey involves him with some of Maugham's most brilliant characters - his fiancée Isabel whose choice between love and wealth have lifelong repercussions, and Elliott Templeton, her uncle, a classic expatriate American snob.??Maugham himself wanders in and out of the story, to observe his characters struggling with their fates.

“[Maugham is] a great artist . . . a genius.” –Theodore Dreiser

“[Maugham’s] excessively rare gift of story-telling . . . is almost the equal of imagination itself.” –The Sunday Times (London)

“It is very difficult for a writer of my generation, if he is honest, to pretend indifference to the work of Somerset Maugham. . . . He was always so entirely there.” –Gore Vidal

“Maugham remains the consummate craftsman. . . . [His writing is] so compact, so economical, so closely motivated, so skillfully written, that it rivets attention from the first page to last.” –Saturday Review of Literature,

Mark Twain’s famous novels Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn have long been hailed as major achievements, but the father of American literature also made his mark as a master of the humorous short story. All the tales he wrote over the course of his lengthy career are gathered here, including such immortal classics as “The Notorious Jumping Frog of Calaveras County,”

几乎所有追求终极真理的人，最后都会归结到理性和精神的满足。物质和肉体的满足太容易得到和实现，因此无法持久，富足的人并不一定幸福快乐，这已经众所周知。当然，一直处于贫困的人除非获得饱暖，否则无法理解上面这句话。但是当人得到了满意的物质条件，会发现就算他继续拥有更多的物质，也无法使幸福感相应增加，幸福感反而会降低也说不定。因此通往真正幸福的道路不在这里。花生在吃了三天的生煎小笼之后就不觉得它们多么好吃了。

从生物学角度来说，活着其实是没有意义的。活着就是活着。一大堆细胞在运作。由嫩而老，由盛而衰。其他活物对此都没意见，只有人类不行，人类非得给自己的存在找一个理由，这是这种生物很奇怪的一个特征。绝大多数人，给自己找的存在理由不外乎社会地位（艾洛特）、物质生活（伊莎贝尔）、感情（索菲）等等，找到之后就心满意足。人类社会的形成和设计在某种程度上是为这些需求服务的。但是有少数人，脑子里的沟回比别人深一些，或者经历比较特殊，会发现自己不满足于获得世俗的成功和幸福，他们会问：我活着到底是为什么？我究竟为什么存在？然后有一股神秘的力量推动他们去找答案。这些少数人中的少数人，有可能找到答案。
