精彩书摘
CHAPTER 1
THE day broke grey and dull. The clouds hung heavily, and there was a rawness in the air that suggested snow. A woman servant came into a room in which a child was sleeping and drew the curtains. She glanced mechanically at the house opposite, a stucco house with a portico, and went to the child's bed.
'Wake up, Philip,' she said.
She pulled down the bed-clothes, took him in her arms, and carried him downstairs. He was only half awake.
'Your mother wants you,' she said.
She opened the door of a room on the floor below and took the child over to a bed in which a woman was lying. It was his mother. She stretched out her arms, and the child nestled by her side. He did not ask why he had been awakened. The woman kissed his eyes, and with thin, small hands felt the warm body through his white flannel nightgown. She pressed him closer to herself.
'Are you sleepy, darling?' she said.
Her voice was so weak that it seemed to come already from a great distance. The child did not answer, but smiled comfortably. He was very happy in the large, warm bed, with those soft arms about him. He tried to make himself smaller still as he cuddled up against his mother, and he kissed her sleepily. In a moment he closed his eyes and was fast asleep. The doctor came forward and stood by the bedside.
'Oh, don't take him away yet,' she moaned.
The doctor, without answering, looked at her gravely. Knowing she would not be allowed to keep the child much longer, the woman kissed him again; and she passed her hand down his body till she came to his feet; she held the right foot in her hand and felt the five small toes; and then slowly passed her hand over the left one. She gave a sob.
'What's the matter?' said the doctor. 'You're tired.'
She shook her head, unable to speak, and the tears rolled down her cheeks. The doctor bent down.
'Let me take him.'
She was too weak to resist his wish, and she gave the child up. The doctor handed him back to his nurse.
'You'd better put him back in his own bed.'
'Very well, sir.'
The little boy, still sleeping, was taken away. His mother sobbed now broken-heartedly.
'What will happen to him, poor child?'
The monthly nurse tried to quiet her, and presently, from exhaustion, the crying ceased. The doctor walked to a table on the other side of the room, upon which, under a towel, lay the body of a still-born child. He lifted the towel and looked. He was hidden from the bed by a screen, but the woman guessed what he was doing.
'Was it a girl or a boy?' she whispered to the nurse.
'Another boy.'
The woman did not answer. In a moment the child's nurse came back. She approached the bed.
'Master Philip never woke up,' she said.
There was a pause. Then the doctor felt his patient's pulse once more.
'I don't think there's anything I can do just now,' he said. 'I'll call again after breakfast.'
'I'll show you out, sir,' said the child's nurse.
They walked downstairs in silence. In the hall the doctor stopped.
'You've sent for Mrs Carey's brother-in-law, haven't you?'
'Yes, sir.'
'D'you know at what time he'll be here?'
'No, sir, I'm expecting a telegram.'
'What about the little boy? I should think he'd be better out of the way.'
'Miss Watkin said she'd take him, sir.'
'Who's she?'
'She's his godmother, sir. D'you think Mrs Carey will get over it, sir?'
The doctor shook his head.

用户评价
语言的运用上，这本书简直是一场华丽的文字盛宴。作者的遣词造句充满了古典的韵味，却又不失现代的犀利。那些比喻和意象的构建，常常出人意料，却又精准无比地击中靶心。我尤其沉迷于那些描述环境的段落，光影的变幻、季节的更迭，都被赋予了强烈的象征意义，使得故事的背景不再仅仅是陪衬，而是成为了推动情节发展和烘托人物心境的有力工具。读起来，我仿佛能闻到空气中弥漫的尘土气息，感受到角色皮肤上拂过的微风。这种沉浸式的体验，得益于作者对细节的极致打磨。很多时候，我不得不放慢速度，反复咀嚼那些优美的句子，试图捕捉其中每一个音节所携带的微妙情感色彩。对于追求阅读体验的读者来说，光是沉浸在这种文字的美感中，就已经值回票价了。它不是快餐式的消遣，而是需要慢慢品尝的佳酿。
评分这本书的结构安排极其巧妙，它采用了非线性的叙事手法，通过碎片化的回忆和交错的时间线，逐步揭开一个巨大的谜团。起初，阅读的难度系数略高，需要读者保持高度的专注力去拼凑那些散落的线索。然而，一旦你适应了这种叙事节奏，那种“豁然开朗”的满足感是无与伦比的。每一次看似不经意的细节，在后续章节中都会被重新拾起，并赋予全新的意义，形成一个精密的逻辑闭环。这种对叙事框架的掌控力，显示了作者高超的规划能力。它考验的不仅是读者的耐心，更是我们对因果关系的理解能力。它教会我们，真相往往不是直线呈现的，而是隐藏在迂回曲折的表象之下的。读完之后，我甚至想立刻重读一遍，去追溯那些先前被忽略的伏笔。
评分这本书的叙事节奏简直像一场精心编排的音乐会，时而急促如鼓点，让人屏息凝神，时而舒缓如长笛，引人深思。作者在描绘角色内心世界的挣扎与蜕变时，展现了非凡的细腻和洞察力。那些隐藏在日常琐碎下的情感暗流，被挖掘得淋漓尽致，仿佛触及了人类普遍存在的某种隐秘痛点。我特别欣赏作者处理冲突的方式，它不是那种直白的、撕心裂肺的对抗，而是一种更深层次的、存在主义式的拉扯。每一次阅读，我都感觉自己像是站在一个高处俯瞰众生百态，那些曾经困扰我的迷茫，似乎都在这种宏大的视角下得到了某种程度的释怀。这本书的魅力在于其多层次的解读空间，你以为你读懂了某个情节，但随着时间的推移和阅历的增长，你会发现其中蕴含着更深远的哲学意味。它迫使你走出自己的舒适区，去审视那些被我们习以为常地接受下来的规则和束缚。那种精神上的洗礼感，是很多同类型作品难以企及的。
评分角色塑造的立体感，是这本书给我留下的最深刻印象之一。每一个主要人物都像是从生活原型中精雕细琢出来的一样，复杂、矛盾，充满人性的瑕疵。没有绝对的好人，也没有纯粹的恶人，只有在特定情境下做出选择的个体。我尤其对那个配角A的命运线感到唏嘘不已，他所有的选择似乎都像是被命运之手牵引着，走向一个既定的悲剧，但即便如此，他依然展现出了令人动容的勇气和挣扎。作者没有简单地将他们标签化，而是深入挖掘了驱动他们行为的底层动机——那些深植于童年阴影、社会结构和个人信念中的纠葛。阅读过程中，我常常会跳脱出“读者”的身份，站在不同的立场去思索，‘如果是我，我会怎么做？’这种强烈的代入感，恰恰证明了作者在构建人物群像上的成功。
评分这部作品在探讨“自由”与“限制”这一永恒母题时，展现出一种令人不安的真实感。它没有给出任何简单粗暴的答案，而是将读者置于一个灰色地带，迫使我们直面人性的局限。那些外在的、肉眼可见的桎梏固然存在，但更令人窒息的，往往是我们自己内心构建起来的无形樊篱。作者似乎在用笔尖描绘一种“内在的牢笼”，它比任何高墙都更坚固。我读到后半段时，开始反思自己生活中的种种妥协和放弃，那些曾经被我视为“现实”的东西，在作者的笔下，都变得可疑起来。这本书的价值不在于它提供了逃离的路径，而在于它精准地诊断了我们被束缚的原因。这是一种清醒的痛苦，但唯有清醒，才能带来真正的改变。它是一面镜子，映照出我们最不愿正视的那部分自我。
