This is a story about a man with a walking problem, but it is also a larger tale aboutstruggling with uncertainty. Scattered throughout the novel are some odd events: blizzards,floods, fires, dying bees. Mr Ferris is reminding us of how little we know about the world welive in, and how little we know about ourselves within it, and yet we persist. This is not to saythat Tim s walking is some clunky metaphor. Mr Ferris is wise enough not to teach a lesson.Rather, he has teased ordinary circumstances into something extraordinary, which isexactly what we want our fiction writers to do.
这是一个关于行走强迫症患者的故事,更是一部描述了于不确定中的挣扎的作品。小说中充斥着古怪的事件:暴风雪、洪水、大火、垂死的蜜蜂。费里斯先生让我们意识到我们对于我们生存之世界及我们自己是多么的不了解,然而我们仍旧存在。这并不是说缇姆的行路癖是一个拙劣的隐喻,菲尔斯先生有足够的智慧使他的作品不流于说教。相反地,他把一些平常的事件夸大并进行了嘲讽,而这也正是我们期待着作家做的。
