伊坦·弗洛美

章节摘录

　　Ethan Frome　　I had the story, bit by bit, from various people, and, as generally happens in such cases, each time it was a different story.　　If you know Starkfield, Massachusetts, you know the post-office. If you know the post-office you must have seen Ethan Frome drive up to it, drop the reins on his hollow-backed bay and drag himself across the brick pavement to the white colonnade: and you must have asked who he was.　　It was there that, several years ago, I saw him for the first time;and the sight pulled me up sharp. Even then he was the most striking figure in Starkfield, though he was but the ruin of a man. It was not so much his great height that marked him, for the “natives” were easily singled out by their lank longitude from the stockier foreign breed: it was the careless powerful look he had, in spite of a lameness checking each step like the jerk of a chain. There was something bleak and unapproachable in his face, and he was so stiffened and grizzled that I took him for an old man and was surprised to hear that he was not more than fifty-two. 　　I had this from Harmon Gow, who had driven the stage from Bettsbridge to Starkfield in pre-trolley days and knew the chronicle of all the families on his line.““He's looked that way ever since he had his smashup; and that's twenty-four years ago come next February,” Harmon threw out between reminiscent pauses.P2　　伊坦·弗洛美　　我获悉了这个故事，那是一点一滴地经由不同的人讲述而拼凑起来的，这种情况通常都是人多嘴杂，每次听到的故事都不相同。　　如果你知道马萨诸塞州的斯塔克菲尔德镇，想必你还知道那个邮局。如果你熟悉那个邮局，想必你见过伊坦·弗洛美赶着车子上那儿去，把缰绳搭在他那匹骨瘦如柴的栗色马的背上，让自己慢吞吞地走过铺砖的过道，去到白色的柱廊那儿：想必你会问过他是谁。　　几年前，我就是在那儿第一次看见他，他的样子着实吓得我一楞。虽然他成了个残废，但即使是在那时，他也仍是斯塔克菲尔德镇上最打眼的人。　　他突出的地方主要还不是他高高的个子，他们那些“当地人”都又瘦又高，在较墩实的外来人当中都容易引人注意：惹眼的是他那种虽然像拽铁链似的一跛一顿地走路，却仍带着一副不经意中透着强大的神气。他的脸容有些哀凄，让人觉得不易接近；他的身躯是那么僵硬，头发是那么灰白，我甚至都把他当成了老者，而后来得知他不超过五十二岁时，我顿觉惊讶不已。这是　　哈蒙·高告诉我的，哈蒙在开通电车之前在贝茨伯里奇和斯塔克菲尔德之间跑驿马车，对沿途家家户户那些飞短流长的历史渊源他都一清二楚。　　“他自从撞伤后就一直是这副样子；到明年二月份那次出事就有二十四年了，”哈蒙在回忆的间歇甩出了这么一句话。　　……
