" Well, Tristram Shandy and Amelia and Vanity Fair. Madame Bovary, La Chartreuse de Parme, and Anna Karenina. And Wordsworth and Keats and Verlaine" .

" 噢，例如《项狄传》、《阿米莉亚》和《名利场》，《包法利夫人》、《巴马修道院》和《安娜·卡列尼娜》，还有华兹华斯、济慈和魏尔兰的诗歌。"

" Tristram Shandy" is now regarded as one of the great achievements of 18th-century literature; meanwhile the novel, then in its infancy, developed into a form that teems with oddity.

《项狄传》现在被视为18世纪文学的伟大成就之一；另一方面，这部小说在当时还处于萌芽阶段，却发展成了一种充满怪诞的形式。

I said to myself, " Tristram Shandy, " and hurried home to plunge into a book which I have not opened for I dare say twenty years.

我对自己说：“项狄传”，然后赶回家去翻开一本我敢说二十年没打开过的书。
