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.

上面提到的伊丽莎、约翰和乔奇安娜·里德,这时候都在休憩室里,正簇拥在他们的母亲周围,她斜靠在炉边的沙发上,心爱的儿女都在身旁(这忽儿既不争吵,又不哭闹),看上去很是快活。她没让我和他们在一起;她说她很遗憾,不得不叫我离他们远一点;她真的不能把只给知足快乐的小孩的那些特权给我,除非是白茜告诉了她,而且还要她自己亲眼看到,我确实是在认认真真地努力培养一种更加天真随和的性情,一种更加活泼可爱的态度——大概是更轻快、更坦率、更自然的一种什么吧。
评分我倒是很高兴,我素来不爱远距离的散步,特别是在寒冷的下午。对我来说,在阴冷的黄昏回家实在可怕,手指和脚趾都冻僵了,还得听保姆白茜的责骂,弄得心里很不痛快,而且自己觉得体质不如伊丽莎、约翰和乔奇安娜·里德,又感到低人一等。
评分书是人类的朋友。
评分“简,我可不喜欢吹毛求疵或者寻根究底的人;再说,小孩儿这样打断长辈的话,实在可怕。找个地方去坐下来。不会说讨人喜欢的话,就别多嘴。”休憩室的紧隔壁是一间小小的早餐室。我溜进了那间屋子。那儿有一个书架。不一会儿,我就拿到了一本书,我特意挑一本图画很多的。我爬上窗口,缩起脚,像土耳其人那样盘腿坐着,把波纹红昵窗帘几乎完全拉拢,我就加倍隐蔽起来,仿佛坐在神龛里似的。
评分狄更斯神作,被低估的作品。
