《莫菲》是萨缪尔·贝克特第一部出色的长篇小说。展示二元对立的小说世界是《莫菲》的主要特征。在这部小说里,贝克特实现了形式和内容的统一,却无法为小说中的人物找到协调自身矛盾的方法。莫菲向往完全的疯狂,却不得不向理性的世界屈服。最终在死亡里,莫菲得到了解脱,疯狂最终抛弃了理性,而理性又再一次取得了绝对的胜利。 Murphy is Samuel Beckett’s first brilliant novel. The dualistic world of fiction is the main feature of “Murphy.” In this novel, Beckett realizes the unity of form and content, but can not find a way for the characters in the novel to reconcile their own contradictions. Murphy aspire to complete madness, but had to yield to a rational world. Eventually in the death, Murphy was relieved, madness eventually abandoned reason, and reason once again achieved absolute victory.
