(2). Capital. By John Lanchester.
《首府》；约翰·兰彻斯特著；
(3). 1:Any neighbourhood in London might merit its own novel.
2:But John Lanchester, author of the bestselling “Fragrant Harbour”, chose the fictional Pepys Road as the setting for “Capital”, his new state-of-the-nation story.
3:Like many streets in London, Pepys Road was smartened up by the glory days before the financial crisis.
4:And like others elsewhere, the tenants of this street lived on rather shaky ground.

(4). 1:The novel begins in December 2007 and ends a year later, after the unwieldy collapse of Lehman Brothers.
2:This is a London of swagger and hubris, and the story is cluttered with more characters than Roger Yount, the banker protagonist, knows ways to spend money.
3:Each character lives on Pepys Road or orbits it, and their stories are fraught with a sense of impending loss.

1:这本小说的故事开始于2007年12月，一年后结束在雷曼兄弟公司棘手的倒闭之后。
2:这本书讲的是伦敦的狂妄自大与傲慢，书中除了擅长花钱的主角罗杰·扬特外，还挤满了其它众多的人物。
3:每个人物都住在佩皮斯路，或是围绕着佩皮斯路而存在，他们的故事都充满了即将失去的感觉。

(5). 1: At the outset residents receive eerie postcards that say “We want what you have.”
2: Petunia Howe, the only tenant born on Pepys Road, wonders how anyone could envy her.
3: Her struggle with a brain tumour is the book’s most emotionally resonant subplot.
4: There are countless others, including a City banker and his self-obsessed wife, a Polish construction worker, a Senegalese footballer and Pakistani shopkeepers.
5: What binds these stories together is a growing awareness of how quickly fortunes can change and how easily perception diverges from reality.

(6). 1: Mr Lanchester is not the first post-crisis novelist to consider Londoners and their money.
2: There was Justin Cartwright’s very funny “Other People’s Money” and Sebastian Faulks’s “A Week in December”.
3: “Capital” manages to be both less entertaining and shallower than these books, while also running quite a bit longer.
4: Flabby and repetitive writing explains some of this heft.
5: There is also plenty of lazy imagery, which compares one character’s breakdown to “an iceberg cracking or a huge sheet of glass shattering into fragments”.

1:兰彻斯特并不是第一位思考伦敦人及其金钱的后危机小说家。
2:这类书还有贾斯廷·卡特赖特的《别人的钱》，写得非常有趣，以及塞巴斯蒂安·福克斯的《12月的一个星期》。
3:《首府》试图比这些书少些娱乐性和肤浅，同时也写得篇幅长些。
4:松散而重复的写作手法让本书的篇幅过长。
5:书中还有很多懒惰的比喻，把一个人物的崩溃比做“冰山开裂或一大块玻璃碎成片片”。

(7). 1:This might be forgiven if Mr Lanchester’s characters could carry the weight of his book.
2:But there are so many of them, and they are so lightly sketched that only ten pages before the end of the book he feels the need to remind readers about the identity of a central figure.
3:In this way “Capital” is like the city he is trying to evoke: so crowded with people that they pass each other impersonally.
4:No one needs to read so many pages to recreate that experience.

1:这可以得到原谅，只要兰彻斯特的角色都可以在他的书中占有份量。
2:但有许多人物只被轻轻勾上几笔，以致在本书结束前十页，他才觉得有必要提醒读者主要人物的身份。
3:因此《首府》一书就象他正试图唤醒的城市一样，挤满了互不关己的人。
4:没有人需要读这么多页来得到这一经验。
