书籍简介

《故园风雨后》被《现代图书馆》评选为二十世纪百佳英文小说之一，并被《纽约时报》称为“伊夫林·沃杰出的作品”，它是对欲望、责任和记忆的一次精彩探索。

伊夫林·沃的杰作将欲望的源泉和爱情的障碍精彩地展现出来——这部小说将我们带入了帝国衰落时期英国贵族光鲜而诱人的世界。

通过查尔斯·赖德与伟大的天主教家庭弗莱特家族纠葛的故事，伊夫林·沃描绘了他年轻时所了解的特权世界的消逝，并生动地回忆了战时严酷生活剥夺了他感官享受的乐趣。 《故园风雨后》浪漫、感性、滑稽、忧郁，超越了沃早期的讽刺探索，展现了他是一位感情丰富、头脑清醒的挽歌式抒情小说家。

“一部真正的文学杰作。”——《时代》杂志

“美得令人心碎……二十世纪颇好的英国小说。”——《洛杉矶时报》

Selected by Modern Library as one of the 100 best novels of the century and called "Evelyn Waugh's finest achievement" by the New York Times, Brideshead Revisited is a stunning exploration of desire, duty, and memory.

The wellsprings of desire and the impediments to love come brilliantly into focus in Evelyn Waugh's masterpiece -- a novel that immerses us in the glittering and seductive world of English aristocracy in the waning days of the empire.

Through the story of Charles Ryder's entanglement with the Flytes, a great family, Evelyn Waugh charts the passing of the privileged world he knew in his own youth and vividly recalls the sensuous pleasures denied him by wartime austerities. At once romantic, sensuous, comic, and somber, Brideshead Revisited transcends Waugh's early satiric explorations and reveals him to be an elegiac, lyrical novelist of the utmost feeling and lucidity.

"A genuine literary masterpiece." --Time

"Heartbreakingly beautiful...The twentieth century's finest English novel." --Los Angeles Times

作者简介

伊夫林·沃 1903 年出生于汉普斯特德，毕业于牛津大学赫特福德学院。1928 年，他出版了第1部小说《衰落与陨落》，随后又出版了《邪恶的尸体》（1930 年）、《黑色的恶作剧》（1932 年）、《一把尘土》（1934 年）和《新闻》（1938 年）。1939 年，沃被任命为皇家海军陆战队队员，后来调入皇家骑兵卫队，这段经历为他创作《荣誉之剑》三部曲（1952-61 年）提供了素材。他知名的小说《故园风雨后》（1945 年）是在他休假期间创作的。沃于 1966 年去世。

Evelyn Waugh was born in Hampstead in 1903 and educated at Hertford College, Oxford. In 1928 he published his first novel, Decline and Fall, which was soon followed by Vile Bodies (1930), Black Mischief (1932), A Handful of Dust (1934) and Scoop (1938). In 1939 Waugh was commissioned in the Royal Marines and later transferred to the Royal Horse Guards, experiences which informed his Sword of Honour trilogy (1952-61). His most famous novel, Brideshead Revisited (1945), was written while on leave from the army. Waugh died in 1966.
