Too Much Happiness was written by Alice Munro,winner of the 2013 Nobel Prize in Literature,one of our greatest contemporary writers of fiction and the owner of the Man Booker Price for Fiction.Her stories have appeared in The New Yorker,The Atlantic Monthly,and other publications,and her collections have been translated into thirteen languages.
? The main character is Sophia Kovalevsky,a great Russian mathematician,writer and advocator拥护者)of women’s rights in the late nineteenth century. After visiting her lover Maxsim Kovalevsky in Riviera,she travels in Europe,ending up in Sweden,where she teaches at the only university in Europe willing to employ a female mathematician.The book writes about her journey from Riviera to Sweden.
??? The story tells the typical struggle of an intellectual(知识分子)woman to achieve success and happiness.However,when she is going to die,Sophia says“too much happiness”.I think it’s irony(讽*11的).As reading the story,she has too many mental problems·First,as a woman mathematician,she was born in a wrong time .She was married to Vladimir Kovalevsky without love,called“a white marriage”.She explained that“no a young Russian woman who was unmarried could leave the country.”She satisfied her marriage to seek her career.
??? Furthermore,when she sees a man look like Maxsim in the station,she says to herself,“of course,it would not be Maxsim,what could he be doing in Paris?”She doesn’t want to face the fact because she doesn’t want to lose her hope.She believes they will marry in spring.And in her letter to Julia she says:“it is to be happiness after all,happiness after all.Happiness.”She is cheating herself. In fact,the man does not want to marry her,and the happiness she expected doesn’t take place at all.
??? Finally, I conclude that the end must be a tragedy(悲剧).From the very first pages the atmosphere is gloomy黯淡的)and threatening.“One of us will die this year.”“Because we have gone walking in a graveyard(墓地)on the first day of the New Year.”Some pages further,“a black cat across their path”all reflect it will be a bad ending.Not because she had some problems with her lung,but because her life does not bring her happiness,and because of these disharmony things that happen in her life.
