"Let her go to Italy!" he cried. "Let her meddle with what she doesn't understand! Look at this letter! The man who wrote it will marry her, or murder her, or do for her somehow. He's a bounder, but he's not an English bounder. He's mysterious and terrible. He's got a country behind him that's upset people from the beginning of the world."
When a young English widow takes off on the grand tour and along the way marries a penniless Italian, her in-laws are not amused. That the marriage should fail and poor Lilia die tragically are only to be expected. But that Lilia should have had a baby -- and that the baby should be raised as an Italian! -- are matters requiring immediate correction by Philip Herriton, his dour sister Harriet, and their well-meaning friend Miss Abbott.
In his first novel, E. M. Forster anticipated the themes of cultural collision and the sterility of the English middle class that he would develop in A Room with a View and A Passage to India. Where Angels Fear to Tread is an accomplished, harrowing, and malevolently funny book, in which familiar notions of vice and virtue collapse underfoot and the best intentions go mortally awry.

看完后再回头看的前言,却令我非常惊讶:作者跟我看的仿佛是两个故事。 两个死亡事件在我看来根本不是小说的重点。对福斯特来说,“事件”从来不是重点,事件只是聚点,重要的是通过这个点来展示背后扭结的文化问题以及身处其间的个人的困惑。这部小说的重点是展示英国保守狭隘...
評分 評分福斯特的第一部长篇,轻喜剧的剧情和人物,处理的却是重大的人生和文化课题,体现于其间的价值观既结实又微妙,稍有不慎就会有失去掌控,造成政治和情感“不正确”的危险。迹近完美的debut。 马爱农的翻译可圈可点,遣词造句与原文的风格丝丝入扣。Great job!
