  《茶花女》是发生在小仲马身边的一个故事,是根据他亲身经历所写的一部力作。在19世纪40年代,一个叫阿尔丰西娜·普莱西的贫苦乡下姑娘来到巴黎,走进了名利场,成了上流社会的一个社交明星,开始了卖笑生涯;并改名为玛丽·杜普莱西。她爱好文学,音乐,谈吐不俗。一次在剧院门口咳血时被小仲马看见,小仲马甚是心痛。玛丽也非常感动,于是两人开始了一段交往。后来小仲马和玛丽的感情出现了问题。一次小仲马回到巴黎时听说了玛丽的离去,异常后悔,愧疚,于是写出了这部文学史上的经典。在一些版本里,您会看到这本书的第一页就是小仲马为玛丽·杜普莱西写的一首诗,名叫《献给玛丽·杜普莱西》。此外,由于小仲马的母亲并不是大仲马的妻子,大仲马曾不肯相认。小仲马也借此为当时所有母亲这样的女人说话。

ILLNESSES like the one to which Armand had succumbed have at least this much to be said for them: they either kill you at once or let themselves be conquered very quickly.

A fortnight after the events which I have just recounted, Armand was convalescing very satisfactorily, and we were bound by a firm friendship. I had scarcely left his sick room throughout the whole time of his illness.

Spring had dispensed its flowers, leaves, birds, and harmonies in abundance, and my friend’s window cheerfully overlooked his garden which wafted its healthy draughts up to him.

The doctor had allowed him to get up, and we often sat talking by the open window at that hour of the day when the sun is at its warmest, between noon and two o’clock.

I studiously avoided speaking to him of Marguerite, for I was still afraid that the name would reawaken some sad memory which slumbered beneath the sick man’s apparent calm. But Armand, on the contrary, seemed to take pleasure in speaking of her? not as he had done previously, with tears in his eyes, but with a gentle smile which allayed my fears for his state of mind.

I had noticed that, since his last visit to the cemetery and the spectacle which had been responsible for causing his serious breakdown, the measure of his mental anguish seemed to have been taken by his physical illness, and Marguerite’s death had ceased to present itself through the eyes of the past. A kind of solace had come with the certainty he had acquired and, to drive off the somber image which often thrust itself into his mind, he plunged into the happier memories of his affair with Marguerite and appeared willing to recall no others.
