日期：2022-09-14 All of a sudden, on my way out to the lobby, I got old Jane Gallagher on the brain again. I got her on, and I couldnt get her off. I sat down in this vomity-looking chair in the lobby and thought about her and Stradlater sitting in that goddam Ed Ba... 阅读全文>>

日期：2022-09-13 It was still pretty early. Im not sure what time it was, but it wasnt too late. The one thing I hate to do is go to bed when Im not even tired. So I opened my suitcases and took out a clean shirt, and then I went in the bathroom and washed and chang... 阅读全文>>

日期：2022-09-13 The first thing I did when I got off at Penn Station, I went into this phone booth. I felt like giving somebody a buzz. I left my bags right outside the booth so that I could watch them, but as soon as I was inside, I couldnt think of anybody to cal... 阅读全文>>

日期：2022-09-13 It was too late to call up for a cab or anything, so I walked the whole way to the station. It wasnt too far, but it was cold as hell, and the snow made it hard for walking, and my Gladstones kept banging hell out of my legs. I sort of enjoyed the a... 阅读全文>>

日期：2022-09-13 We always had the same meal on Saturday nights at Pencey. It was supposed to be a big deal, because they gave you steak. Ill bet a thousand bucks the reason they did that was because a lot of guys parents came up to school on Sunday, and old Thurmer... 阅读全文>>

日期：2022-09-13 I didnt have anything special to do, so I went down to the can and chewed the rag with him while he was shaving. We were the only ones in the can, because everybody was still down at the game. It was hot as hell and the windows were all steamy. Ther... 阅读全文>>

日期：2022-09-13 They each had their own room and all. They were both around seventy years old, or even more than that. They got a bang out of things, though--in a haif-assed way, of course. I know that sounds mean to say, but I dont mean it mean. I just mean that I... 阅读全文>>

日期：2022-07-22 Philip went up to London a couple of days before the session began in order to find himself rooms. He hunted about the streets that led out of the Westminster Bridge Road, but their dinginess was distasteful to him; and at last he found one in Kenni... 阅读全文>>

日期：2022-07-22 At last Monday came, and Philip thought his long torture was over. Looking out the trains he found that the latest by which Griffiths could reach home that night left Oxford soon after one, and he supposed that Mildred would take one which started a... 阅读全文>>

日期：2022-07-22 Next day Philip was in a good temper. He was very anxious not to bore Mildred with too much of his society, and so had arranged that he should not see her till dinner-time. She was ready when he fetched her, and he chaffed her for her unwonted punct... 阅读全文>>

日期：2022-07-22 The following Saturday Mildred returned, and that evening Philip kept her to himself. He took seats for the play, and they drank champagne at dinner. It was her first gaiety in London for so long that she enjoyed everything ingenuously. She cuddled... 阅读全文>>
