"Henry James' great theme is the collision of cultures, of New World American energy encountering Old World European aristocracy; and his supreme skill is in the delineation of the unspoken subtleties that govern human interaction-- the meanings behind people's words, the delicate signals by which people communicate more than the conventions of conversation or society allow."
--Amazon.co.uk Review
"The American is built around a moral dilemma that dramatises this clash of cultures. Wealthy, open-hearted Christopher Newman (the New Man in the Old World) visits Paris and falls in love with impoverished French aristocrat, Claire de Cintre. However, her snobbish family bully her into breaking off the engagement. When Newman discovers that his former fiancée's family are hiding a dark secret, corrupt Old World morals suggest he should use it to take his revenge; but his simpler American sense tells him that this would be wrong. What should he do? The fine touch with which James explores the complexities of this scenario markes an extraordinary advance over his first novel, Roderick Hudson; and The American looks forward to the mature classics of James' middle period, books like Daisy Miller and Portrai t of a Lady--all novels that explore the classic Jamesian theme of Americans in Europe."

評分 評分4.1))真正玩弄權力的大師總是隱藏得很深,瓦裏斯和培提爾可謂該劇最懂這遊戲規則的人,但兩人的目標應該不一樣。瓦裏斯的目的目前仍舊不明朗,迴想一下他身為情報總管,掌握瞭多種信息,隻是他吐露消息有多有少,有時及時有時滯後,他以這種方式來操控權力場中的角色;相比之下,培提爾則是野心勃勃,布局縝密且步步為營,當然手段也足夠陰險,藉刀殺人和明修棧道暗渡陳倉這兩種計謀被用得爐火純青,這個人物身上有一種獨特的魅力,所謂的智慧的性感吧。混亂自然是一把通天的雲梯,尤其對小指頭這樣沒有背景,徒手起傢的人物而言。
評分200減100買的很劃算!
