《人性的枷鎖》是英國小說家毛姆的成名作,也是他的代表作。同時,它也被認(rèn)為是毛姆的自傳體小說。美國現(xiàn)代圖書館將此小說列為“20世紀(jì)英語世界最佳100部小說”中的一部,位列第66位。《人性的枷鎖》這部小說后來成為毛姆享譽(yù)最高、歷久不衰的作品。讀過此書者,很少有人能忘記主角菲利普在倫敦醫(yī)學(xué)院讀書時所經(jīng)歷的慘痛愛情經(jīng)驗。那是全書最生動精彩的地方,作者用戲劇性手法,寫出人性的糾葛。

The novel is a 19th-century semi-epistolary one. Armadale is a novel by Wilkie Collins, first published in 1864-66. Some linking passages consist of letters between the various characters, or of extracts from Lydia's journal, but the great majority of the text narrates the events as they occur. The novel has a convoluted plot about two distant cousins both named Allan Armadale. The father of one had murdered the father of the other (the two fathers are also named Allan Armadale).'The distortions of the plot, the violent and irrational reactions of the characters, reflect and dramatise the ways in which his readers' perceptions were distorted by the assumptions and hypocrisies of the society in which they lived,"writes Catherine Peters in the comment book.It is the third of Wilkie Collins's four 'great novels' of the 1860s: after The Woman in White (1859–60) and No Name (1862), and before The Moonstone (1868).
