印度之行 [Book] Douban
A PASSAGE TO INDIA
author: [英] E. M. 福斯特 translator: 冯涛 publishing house: 上海译文出版社 2016 - 9
莫尔太太和阿黛拉•奎斯蒂德小姐结伴来到印度的小城昌德拉布尔,探望担任殖民地官员的儿子和未婚夫,她们很快就感觉到陷入那与世隔绝并充满偏见的英印社会当中,为了能探索“真实的印度”,她们跟当地的一位印度穆斯林医生阿齐兹成为朋友,并在对方的热情邀请下同游郊外的名胜马拉巴尔石窟。在精神恍惚间,阿黛拉感觉受到了阿齐兹的攻击,由此引发了一场轩然大波,英国统治者与印度民众之间的矛盾空前尖锐,双方成为针锋相对的两个敌对阵营。当地公立学校的校长塞西尔•菲尔丁公开站到了为阿齐兹辩护的阵营,在庭审过程中逐渐认清真相的阿黛拉也勇敢地承认了自己的错误,终于洗脱了阿齐兹的不白之冤。
《印度之行》是福斯特最后一部长篇小说,也被公认为作者最优秀的文学成就;小说不但深刻地揭示和批判了种族主义和殖民主义,更脱出政治与民族的窠臼,力图指明人类在一个至今尚不为我们的头脑所理解的宇宙中生存的困境,致力于探索整个人类何以自处、共存与救赎的终极道路。小说极富象征意味与哲理深度,既引人入胜又诗意盎然,被公认为二十世纪最伟大的文学巨著之一。

"It's just a matter of trial and error. You try something, it doesn't work. You try it another way, maybe it works even less well, or maybe it works a little bit better. It really is the dark room that Henry James describes. It's a sort of groping, and continuously trying things out, and understanding why something fails. The key is to try to understand what are the elements that are failing, and why, and then you move on to the next draft with a little bit more of clarity."
