Women and Fiction《女性小说集》收录了凯特·肖邦、尤多拉·韦尔蒂、艾丽丝·门罗等二十世纪优秀女作家的26篇短篇小说。这些有名的、深受人们喜爱的作家们的故事来自世界各地和各行各业充满活力的女性人物。

在蒂利·奥尔森的经典作品《我站在这里熨衣服》中，一位单身母亲认为自己成功地养育了一个女儿。在尤多拉·韦尔蒂的《老路》中，一位非洲裔美国人的祖母遇到了一个厚颜无耻的年轻白人男子。在艾丽丝·门罗的《办公室》中，妻子在家里有太多分心的事情要做，于是在城里租了一个房间，却经常被房东打断。这些有深刻见解的故事，既尖锐又具有讽刺意味，它们在所有的相似性和多样性中，抓住了女性的本质。

From Kate Chopin’s turn-of-the-century Lousiana, to Gertrude Stein’s war-time Paris, to Alice Walker’s modern-day America, here are twenty-six short stories by the finest women writers of the twentieth century. These well-known and well-loved authors people their stories with vibrant female characters, from all over the world and all walks of life. Separately, each of these stories bears the mark of a skilled writer. Together, they celebrate woman in her many roles—as daughter, mother, worker, wife, lover, sister, and friend. In Tillie Olsen’s classic, “I Stand Here Ironing,” a single mother considers her success in raising a daughter. In Eudora Welty’s “The Worn Path,” an African-American grandmother meets with grace the impudence of a young, white man. In Alice Munro’s “The Office,” a wife who has too many distractions to write at home rents a room in town, only to be constantly interrupted by her landlord. Superbly written, and at once poignant and ironic, these insightful stories capture the essence of being a woman—in all its similarity, and all its diversity.

Bibliography

Novelists and poets, however, may divide their time between the sitting rooms in the house of fiction and Pamassus. The biography and art of the next great woman novelist show the imaginative writer as a member of a world larger than the one to which Mrs. Woolf’s theory assigns her. The year after Jane Austen was buried beneath the civilized arches of Winchester Cathedral, Emily Brontë was born on the edge of the Yorkshire moors. She was a great poet as well as, for many readers, the writer of the greatest English novel. She got her training by walking the windswept mountainy moors, alone, or in the company of a brother or sister or two rather than by surrounding herself with people in the common sitting room of the Haworth parsonage. To avoid the need to go out from the blessed isolation of her father’s house to earn her living as a governess in strange sitting rooms, she sat uninterrupted in a corner of her father’s garden writing Wushering Heights. She was most admired, perhaps, for “that romantic intensity” which Mrs. Woolf attributes to the imagination of the poet. For resisting classification by literary historians and critics alike, Emily Brontë has gone down in literary history as something of a “freak”.
