月亮與六便士：The Moon and Sixpence（英文版）

1919年，毛姆45歲時(shí)，發(fā)表了這部《月亮與六便士》。小說(shuō)故事情節(jié)相對(duì)比較簡(jiǎn)單：某進(jìn)入中年的英國(guó)券商，忽然決定拋妻棄子，跟隨內(nèi)心長(zhǎng)久以來(lái)積壓著的念頭，立志要成為一個(gè)藝術(shù)家。這個(gè)故事的源頭來(lái)自畫家高更的生平故事。這種行為并不為世俗社會(huì)所認(rèn)可。本來(lái)作為一個(gè)券商，手里有大把大把的鈔票可以揮霍過(guò)活，為什么非要當(dāng)什么藝術(shù)家？為什么最后連生存都變成一個(gè)問(wèn)題？結(jié)果，這位想成為藝術(shù)家的券商后來(lái)連個(gè)住處都找不到，身體也患上了疾病，混到了沒(méi)有錢買食物果腹，整天挨餓的境地。也許，藝術(shù)家的世界，凡夫俗子們永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)懂。這位藝術(shù)家不僅沒(méi)有被這種境地嚇倒，反而愈加堅(jiān)強(qiáng)地活了下去。而且，不顧身體上的疾病帶來(lái)的不適，也無(wú)視周遭環(huán)境的惡劣程度，一心撲在繪畫的創(chuàng)作之中。在太平洋的一個(gè)叫作塔西提的小島上，他創(chuàng)作出了讓人看一眼就會(huì)產(chǎn)生蕩氣回腸感覺(jué)的“杰作”。但此時(shí)，他已經(jīng)溘然長(zhǎng)逝。那么，為什么叫“月亮與六便士”？其實(shí)，用毛姆自己的話說(shuō)，這個(gè)書名的意義并沒(méi)有在書里得到應(yīng)有的展示，而是出自某評(píng)論家在評(píng)論上述《人性的枷鎖》時(shí)所寫的某句話。原話如下：《人性的枷鎖》里的主人公菲利普·凱利（PhilipCarey）被形容為一個(gè)太過(guò)執(zhí)著找尋月亮的家伙，以至于他從來(lái)沒(méi)發(fā)現(xiàn)過(guò)腳底下就有一塊六便士。毛姆后來(lái)這樣解釋道：“假如你低頭在地上不住地要找尋一塊六便士硬幣，頭也不抬起來(lái)一下，那么，你就會(huì)丟掉月亮。”
