薇拉·凯瑟创作于不同时期的两部女性作品《迷途的女人》和《逝水年华》看似毫无关联实则有诸多相似之处。两部小说体现了凯瑟对男权社会中弱小女子悲惨生活及命运的关注与同情,两个故事从故事主旨、人物塑造、叙事方式和写作技巧以及命运结局都有着它们的相似之处和不同点。 There seems to be a lot of similarities between the two women’s works “Lost Woman” and “Avaliable” created by Vera Cather during different periods. Two novels reflect the concern and sympathy of Cather on the miserable life and fate of the weakest androgynous women in patriarchal society. The two stories have their similarities and differences in their tenets, characters, narrative and writing skills as well as their fate point.
