04 Sept. rain in the morning, turning sunny later. I woke up early, at about 5.30am. The apartment is lovely– bright and spacious, with two bedrooms, each with a double bed. The bathroom is large and modern, decorated entirely in white - clean and simple, excatly the way I like it.
“The studio was filled with the rich odour of roses, and when the light summer wind stirred amidst the trees of the garden, there came through the open door the heavy scent of the lilac, or the more delicate perfume of the pink-flowering thorn.” — Chapter 1 (畫室裏充滿了濃鬱的玫瑰香氣,夏日輕風拂過花園的樹叢時,透過敞開的門飄進來的是紫丁香的濃香,或是粉紅山楂花那更為淡雅的芬芳)
比如說精煉、有節奏感又充滿哲理的:
“Nowadays people know the price of everything and the value of nothing.” — Chapter 2 (如今的人什麽東西的價格都知道,卻不懂得它們的價值。)
“The only way to get rid of a temptation is to yield to it. Resist it, and your soul grows sick with longing for the things it has forbidden to itself.” — Chapter 2 (擺脫誘惑的唯一方法就是屈服於它。若去抗拒,你的靈魂會因渴望那些自己禁止的事物而痛苦難耐)
“There is no such thing as a moral or an immoral book. Books are well written, or badly written. That is all.”— Chapter 2(沒有所謂道德的或不道德的書。書隻有寫得好或寫得壞,僅此而已。)
When one is in love, one always begins by deceiving one’s self, and one always ends by deceiving others.” — Chapter 10(一個人墜入愛河時,總是先欺騙自己,而最終又欺騙他人。)
故事的主角多裏安·格雷 (Dorian Gray),是一個擁有令人驚歎的美貌的年輕人。那種年輕的光芒,在畫家巴茲爾眼中幾乎是一種宗教般的啟示。 “He is all my art to me now... the harmony of body and soul.” (他是我全部藝術的化身,是肉體與靈魂的和諧。-第1章)可正是這種美,讓多裏安意識到了時間的殘酷。當他在畫像前許下願望——讓這幅畫替他老去,而自己永遠年輕時——他的靈魂,也在那一刻悄然被抵押。
王爾德筆下的青春,是耀眼到近乎殘忍的存在。“Youth! Youth! There is absolutely nothing in the world but youth!”(青春!青春!世上除了青春,別無他物。-第2章)。那是一種不知死亡、不懂疲憊的美,青春的轉瞬即逝,是一種“too perfect to last”的完美, 也是讓人心悸的絕望。“When your youth goes, your beauty will go with it, and then you will suddenly discover that there are no triumphs left for you.”(當你的青春逝去,你的美也隨之凋謝,那時你會突然發現,世上再沒有屬於你的榮耀。-第2章)。
或許這就是青春真正的紀念:不是停留在不老的幻象或外表,而是被留住的心意 - 以單純的心欣賞和享受生活中的不完美,保留那份仍然會被一場雨、一句詩、一束花觸動的敏感,因此就被時間溫柔以待。正如王爾德在書中所言:“To define is to limit.”(定義即是限製- 第18章)。青春無法被定義,它會以不同的方式,在每一個清晨、每一場雨、每一段文字中,被重現、被感受。
3號住的這一晚純粹就是中轉一下,以便把4號開往Odda的路程控製在200公裏以內。我們安排了一天的時間,打算沿著著名的旅遊風景路線-13號公路-慢慢開。這是一條南北走向、將近450公裏的國家公路(Norwegian National Road 13),那一天,真的是逢山鑽洞(隧道),遇水上船。我們坐了一次輪渡,過了多少隧道忘了數。

寫得真好,讚!
