內容簡介

　　《看得見風景的房間(英文版)》是英國作傢愛德華·摩根·福斯特於1908年發錶的一部小說，是福斯特最為浪漫、也最為樂觀的一部小說。講述的是一位英國中上階層的貴族少女露西到弗洛倫薩旅行期間，結識瞭英國人喬治，這一段旅行給露西的世界觀帶來瞭戲劇性的改變。兩人在英國重逢之後，露西毅然決定解除之前的婚約，與喬治在一起。她通過與自身階層的決裂，獲得自由和快樂。這既是一部愛情小說，同時也是對20世紀初壓抑虛僞的英國社會的批判。

精彩書摘

　　Miss Bartlett was unequal to the bath. All her barbed civilities came forth wrong end first. Young Mr. Emerson scored a notable triumph to the delight of Mr. Beebe and to the secret delight of Lucy.
　　“Poor young man!” said Miss Bartlett, as soon as he had gone. “How angry he is with his father about the rooms! It is all he can do to keep polite.”
　　“In half an hour or so your rooms will be ready,” said Mr. Beebe. Then looking rather thoughtfully at the two cousins, he retired to his own rooms, to write up his philosophic diary.
　　“Oh, dear!” breathed the little old lady, and shuddered as if all the winds of heaven had entered the apartment. “Gentlemen sometimes do not realize – ” Her voice faded away, but Miss Bartlett seemed to understand and a conversation developed, in which gentlemen who did not thoroughly realize played a principal part. Lucy, not realizing either, was reduced to literature. Taking up Baedeker’s Handbook to Northern Italy, she committed to memory the most important dates of Florentine History. For she was determined to enjoy herself on the morrow. Thus the half-hour crept profitably away, and at last Miss Bartlett rose with a sigh, and said:
　　“I think one might venture now. No, Lucy, do not stir. I will superintend the move.”
　　“How you do do everything,” said Lucy.
　　“Naturally, dear. It is my affair.”
　　“But I would like to help you.”
　　“No, dear.”
　　Charlotte’s energy! And her unselfishness! She had been thus all her life, but really, on this Italian tour, she was surpassing herself. So Lucy felt, or strove to feel. And yet – there was a rebellious spirit in her which wondered whether the acceptance might not have been less delicate and more beautiful. At all events, she entered her own room without any feeling of joy.
　　“I want to explain,” said Miss Bartlett, “why it is that I have taken the largest room. Naturally, of course, I should have given it to you; but I happen to know that it belongs to the young man, and I was sure your mother would not like it.”
　　Lucy was bewildered.
　　“If you are to accept a favour it is more suitable you should be under an obligation to his father than to him. I am a woman of the world, in my small way, and I know where things lead to. However, Mr. Beebe is a guarantee of a sort that they will not presume on this.”
　　“Mother wouldn’t mind, I’m sure,” said Lucy, but again had the sense of larger and unsuspected issues.
　　Miss Bartlett only sighed, and enveloped her in a protecting embrace as she wished her good-night. It gave Lucy the sensation of a fog, and when she reached her own room she opened the window and breathed the clean night air, thinking of the kind old man who had enabled her to see the lights dancing in the Arno and the cypresses of San Miniato, and the foot-hills of the Apennines, black against the rising moon.
　　Miss Bartlett, in her room, fastened the window-shutters and locked the door, and then made a tour of the apartment to see where the cupboards led, and whether there were any oubliettes or secret entrances. It was then that she saw, pinned up over the washstand, a sheet of paper on which was scrawled an enormous note of interrogation. Nothing more.
　　“What does it mean?” she thought, and she examined it carefully by the light of a candle. Meaningless at first, it gradually became menacing, obnoxious, portentous with evil. She was seized with an impulse to destroy it, but fortunately remembered that she had no right to do so, since it must be the property of young Mr. Emerson. So she unpinned it carefully, and put it between two pieces of blotting-paper to keep it clean for him. Then she completed her inspection of the room, sighed heavily according to her habit, and went to bed.

前言/序言

都是老公要買的書，質量都非常好，全英文的。價格很便宜。買瞭一堆，慢慢看。

　本書在一定程度上，至少可以追溯到1983年，當時我在為《科學》雜誌撰寫一篇關於NASA（美國國傢航空航天局）某個監視大氣臭氧狀況的項目的文章。在瞭解項目內容的過程中，我與某課題組一道搭乘瞭NASA的飛機，那架飛機的任務是在三萬英尺的高空給大氣層取樣並進行分析。課題組一度在墨西哥尤卡坦半島上的梅裏達登陸。不知為何，科學傢們次日休瞭一天假。我們坐上一輛破舊的大眾貨車，去瞭瑪雅遺址所在的奇琴伊察（ChichénItzá）。我當時對中美洲文化一無所知，甚至連“中美洲”（Mesoamerica）這個術語都不熟悉。中美洲囊括瞭從墨西哥中部到巴拿馬的廣大範圍，涵蓋瞭危地馬拉和伯利茲全境，薩爾瓦多、洪都拉斯、哥斯達黎加和尼加拉瓜的部分地區，還有瑪雅人、奧爾梅剋人和許多其他原住民群體的故鄉。我們從貨車裏爬齣來不久，我就被徹頭徹尾地吸引住瞭。

京東自營的送貨就是快！不錯。
