奥威尔对伦敦的书写:


1. “肯辛顿和伯爵宫的阴郁荒地” ——《通往维根码头之路》


The dreary wastes of Kensington and Earl’s Court. —— The Road to Wigan Pier.


2. “污秽的……无尽的……‘伦敦雾’” ——《伦敦信件》


‘The foul… endless…“London fogs” of my childhood’——‘London Letters’ for the Partisan Review


3. “伦敦就像一个漩涡,吸引着破落的人们。它如此庞大,以至于生活在那里孤独且匿名。”


London is a sort of whirlpool which draws derelict people towards it, and it is so vast that life there is solitary and anonymous.Until you break the law nobody will take any notice of you, and you can go to pieces as you could not possibly do in a place where you had neighbours who knew you.


——《通往维根码头之路》


4. “尽管冬天似乎永远不会结束,春天,像普通蟾蜍一样,总会最终苏醒。”——《对普通蟾蜍的几点思考》


While some wartime winters had appeared to be permanent, spring, like the common toad, always stirred eventually.


—— Some Thoughts on the Common Toad


5. “你几乎无法穿过人流,他们脸上都挂着伦敦街头特有的疯狂而僵硬的表情,街道上依然是拥堵的交通,巨大的红色公共汽车在汽车之间穿行,发动机轰鸣,喇叭声四起。噪音大得足以吵醒死人,但却无法唤醒这一群人,我心想。我感觉自己好像是这个沉睡城市里唯一清醒的人……而这种预言般的感觉最近总是在我心中回荡,战争就在眼前,而战争将是一切的终结……我们都站在即将沉没的甲板上,只有我知道。我看着那些面无表情的人群穿过,好像十一月的火鸡,根本不知道接下来会发生什么。仿佛我的眼睛能透过X光,看到行走的骷髅。”


The usual crowd that you can hardly fight your way through was streaming up the pavement, all of them with that insane fixed expression on their faces that people have in London streets, and there was the usual jam of traffic with the great red buses nosing their way between the cars and the engines roaring and horns tooting. Enough noise to waken the dead, but not to waken this lot, I thought. I felt as if I was the only person awake in a city of sleep walkers… And this kind of prophetic feeling that keeps coming over me nowadays, the feeling that war’s just round the corner and that war’s the end of all things… We’re all on the burning deck and nobody knows it except me. I looked at the dumb bell faces streaming past.Like turkeys in November, I thought. Not a notion of what’s coming to them. It was as if I’d got X rays in my eyes and could see the skeletons walking.


—— Coming Up For Air


6. 19世纪的破旧房屋,木材支撑着它们的墙壁,窗户上贴着硬纸板,屋顶用波纹铁皮覆盖,花园的围墙东倒西歪。


Vistas of rotting 19th-century houses, their sides shored up with baulks of timber, their windows patched with cardboard and their roofs with corrugated iron, their crazy garden walls sagging in all directions.


—— 1984
