I stand listening to that mind vibration from my lofty slope, to these flashes of separate cries with a kind of demure murmur for background, and then I knew that the most hopelessly poignant thing was not Lolita's absence from my side, but the absence of her voice from that concord.
我站在高高的斜坡顶上倾听那悦耳的震憾,倾听那矜持的密密私语中间迸发的不相连的喊叫,随后我明白了那最令人心酸绝望的事不是洛丽塔不在我身边,而是她的声音不在那片和声里面。
《洛丽塔》是一部经典小说,它有个美丽的中文名字叫《一树梨花压海棠》梨花象征男人的白发,而海棠代表女子的红颜。老夫少妻的故事历来不鲜,洛丽塔就是写一个中年男子爱上一个少女洛丽塔,为了接进她,取了她的母亲,而与之私通。然而洛丽塔的逃离,让中年男子伤透心。
