有些人会永远改变你的生活

《卡罗尔》电影海报

​《卡罗尔》电影相信很多人都已经看过不下30遍了，说大魔王和小白兔演活了卡罗尔和特芮丝应该没人敢反对。对比电影中两位撩到炸裂的表现力，原著的文字同样美到让人窒息，两者剧情上更是存在不少细节上的区别。

今天，希望你能徜徉在原著优美的文字海洋里，感受电影之外两人的缘起与缠绵。

她们的眼睛同时交会，特芮丝从她正在打开的盒子抬头往上看，那个女人正好转过头来，直接看着特芮丝。她高挑美丽，修长的身子优雅地穿着一件开襟毛外套，一只手插在腰上。她的眼睛是灰色的，虽没有散发出光泽，却睥睨一切，仿佛打了光或着了火一样，令特芮丝目不转睛。她听到前面的客人正重复问着一个问题，但特芮丝就站在那里，一言不发。那女人也用一种着了迷的表情看着特芮丝，仿佛只有一半的思绪是放在她想买的东西上。虽然两人间还有好几个售货小姐，特芮丝还是很肯定她会走向自己。然后特芮丝看见她缓缓走向柜台，那女人越来越近，特芮丝听到自己的心跌跌撞撞地想追上流逝的每一分钟，脸也发烫了起来。

Their eyes met at the same instant，Therese glancing up from a box she was opening，and the woman just turning her head so she looked directly at Therese. She was tall and fair， her long figure graceful in the loose fur coat that she held open with a hand on her waist. Her eyes were gray，colorless，yet dominant as light or fire，and，caught by them，Therese could not look away.She heard the customer in front of her repeat a question，and Therese stood there，mute.The woman was looking at Therese，too，with a preoccupied expression， as if half her mind were on whatever it was she meant to buy here，and though there were a number of sales girls between them.Therese felt sure the woman would come to her. Then Therese saw her walk slowly toward the counter，heard her heart stumble to catch up with the moment it had let pass，and felt her face grow hot as the woman came nearer and nearer.

特芮丝觉得她很美，觉得她的脸变得模糊起来，因为她现在无法直视她。那女人从包里拿出口红和粉盒，特芮丝看着她的口红盒，金色如珠宝，形状像水手的储物箱。特芮丝还想看看那女人的嘴，但那双灰色的眼睛就在特芮丝眼前，让她无法直视她的嘴，目光像火苗一样在她身上跳跃闪烁。

Therese thought her beautiful， though her face was a blur now because she could not bear to look at it directly.She got something out of her handbag，a lipstick and compact，and Therese looked at her lipstick case — golden like a jewel，and shaped like a sea chest. She wanted to look at the woman's mouth，but the gray eyes so close drove her away，flickering over her like fire.

特芮丝又闻到她淡雅的香水味，有墨绿色丝绸的感觉，只属于她，就像某种奇花异卉的香味一般。特芮丝倾身靠香味更近一点，往下看着她的杯子。她想要把桌子用力推开，投人她的怀中，把鼻子紧紧埋人她颈上那条金绿色相间的围巾。她们的手背偶尔在桌上轻触，特芮丝的肌肤就马上变成独立的个体，有了自己的生命，而且一直发热。特芮丝不明白自己为什么会这样，但事情就是这样。特芮丝瞥见她稍稍转向一旁的脸孔，刹那间再度明白了似曾相识的感觉是什么。她也知道这简直难以置信，因为自己从没见过这个女人。如果见过的话，又怎么可能会忘记呢?在沉默中，特芮丝觉得彼此都在等待对方开口，但这种沉默也不会让人感觉不自在。

The dusky and faintly sweet smell of her perfume came to Therese again， a smell suggestive of dark green silk，that was hers alone，like the smell of a special flower. Therese leaned closer toward it，looking down at her glass. She wanted to thrust the table aside and spring into her arms，to bury her nose in the green and gold scarf that was tied close about her neck. Once the backs of their hands brushed on the table，and Therese’s skin there felt separately alive now，and rather burning.Therese could not understand it，but it was so.Therese glanced at her face that was somewhat turned away，and again she knew that instant of half-recognition. And knew，too，that it was not to be believed. She had never seen the woman before.If she had，could she have forgotten? In the silence，Therese felt they both waited for the other to speak，yet the silence was not an awkward one.

卡罗尔用法文的读音念出特芮丝的名字。特芮丝已经习惯自己的名字有好几种不同的念法，有时候她也会用不同的方式念她的名字。她很喜欢卡罗尔念她名字的方式，她也喜欢她的双唇吐出她的名字。那是一种无止境的渴望，她以前只是偶尔、隐约意识到这种渴望，现在这种渴望成了真实的愿望。这欲望实在太过奇怪、太令人困窘，特芮丝把这种欲望从脑海中甩开。

Carol pronounced her name the French way，Terez. She was used to a dozen variations, and sometimes she herself pronounced it differently. She like the way Carol pronounced it，and she liked her lips saying it. An indefinite longing，that she had been only vaguely conscious of at times before, became now a recognizable wish. It was so absurd，so embarrassing a desire，that Therese thrust it from her mind.

卡罗尔走到她后面，把手放在她的肩上。特芮丝可以在记忆中看见她的手，灵活而强壮。卡罗尔按着她的肩膀时，手上出现了细长的肌腱。卡罗尔的双手移向她的颈项和下巴，时间似乎过了很久。卡罗尔把她的头稍微倾斜一点，在发丝边缘轻轻吻了一下。那段时间心如潮涌，感觉太过强烈，甚至冲散了卡罗尔动作带来的愉悦。特芮丝一点也没有感觉到卡罗尔的吻。

Carol came up behind her and set her hands on Therese’s shoulders. Therese could see her hands in her memory—flexible and strong， the delicate tendons showing as they pressed her shoulders.It seemed an age as her hands moved toward her neck and under her chin，an age of tumult so intense it blotted out the pleasure of Carols tipping her head back and kissing her lightly at the edge of her hair.Therese did not feel the kiss at all.

卡罗尔的双手滑到特芮丝的肩膀下，把头低下来埋进特芮丝的颈部。特芮丝感觉到卡罗尔的身体绷紧了，叹了一口气，她的脖子温热了起来。这口气带着卡罗尔的发香。

Then Carol slipped her hands under her shoulders，and bent her head down to Therese's throat，and Therese felt the tension go out of Carols body with the sigh that made her neck warm， that carried the perfume that was in Carols hair.

“你站在那里做什么?”卡罗尔问，“贪睡虫，快上床。”

“What’re you standing there for?”Carol asked.‘Get to bed，sleepyhead.”

“卡罗尔，我爱你。”

“Carol， I love you.”

卡罗尔挺直了身子。特芮丝用热切的、带着睡意的双眼盯着她看。然后卡罗尔把睡衣从行李箱里拿出来，再把行李箱合上。她走向特芮丝，把手放在她的肩上。她绷紧肩膀，仿佛要向特芮丝要求一个承诺，也像在探询着她，看看她说的话是否属实。然后她亲吻了特芮丝的双唇，仿佛两人之前已经吻过好几千次。

Carol straightened up.Therese stared at her with intense，sleepy eyes.Then Carol finished taking her pajamas from the suitcase and pulled the lid down.She came to Therese and put her hands on her shoulders.She squeezed her shoulders hard， as if she were exacting a promise from her， or perhaps searching her to see if what she had said were real.Then she kissed Therese on the lips，as if they had kissed a thousand times before.

“你不知道我爱你吗?”卡罗尔说。

“Don’t you know I love you?”Carol said.

特芮丝熄了灯，接着卡罗尔的手臂滑到她的脖子下面，她们的身体紧密地贴着彼此，仿佛预先安排好的一样契合。幸福就像是绿色的藤蔓爬满她的全身，伸展纤细的卷须，从她的血肉中生出花朵。她看到一株灰白色的花朵在闪烁，好像是从黑暗中或透过水面看到的一样。她想起人们谈论天堂的原因。

Therese pulled out the light.Then Carol slipped her arm under her neck， and all the length of their bodies touched， fitting as if something had prearranged it. Happiness was like a green vine spreading through her，stretching fine tendrils， bearing flowers through her flesh. She had a vision of a pale white flower，shimerin g as if seen in darkness， or through water. Why did people talk of heaven，she wondered.

卡罗尔的手在她的头发里握紧，卡罗尔吻了她的唇，愉悦之情再度跃上特芮丝心头，仿佛此刻延续了昨天晚上卡罗尔的手滑到她脖子下方的那种感觉。特芮丝想再说一次我爱你，卡罗尔的唇落在她的颈项、肩上，令人颤栗又害怕的愉悦消除了语言，急速贯穿了全身。她的双臂紧紧环绕着卡罗尔，她只感觉到卡罗尔，再也感觉不到其他事物了。

Carol’s fingers tightened in her hair， Carol kissed her on the lips，and pleasure leaped in Therese again as if it were only a continuation of the moment when Carol had sipped her arm under her neck last night. I love you， Therese wanted to say again， and then the words were erased by the tingling and terrifying pleasure that spread in waves from Carol’s lips over her neck， her shoulder，that rushed suddenly the length of her body.Her arms were tight around Carol， and she was conscious of Carol and nothing else， of Carol’s hand that slid along her ribs.

她感觉到卡罗尔的手沿着她的肋骨滑动，卡罗尔的秀发拂过她赤裸的胸部，然后她的身体似乎也消失在越来越大的圆圈中。这些圆圈跳得越来越远，超出思绪可以跟随的范围。上千个回忆、时刻、字眼，第一个心爱的人，卡罗尔第二次在店里和她碰面，上千个关于卡罗尔脸孔、声音的回忆，愤怒和充满笑声的时刻在她脑中，就像彗星的尾巴一样一闪而过。而现在那是一段灰蓝色的距离和空间，一个逐渐扩展的空间。在这个空间中，她可以突然像一支长箭般往前奔去。那支箭轻而易举地横跨了宽广的、不可思议的深渊，在空间中不断拉出弧形，而且没有停止的迹象。接着她意识到自己仍然紧紧贴着卡罗尔，身体颤抖得很厉害，而那支箭就是她自己。她看到卡罗尔淡色的头发遮盖住眼睛，现在卡罗尔的头发贴着她的头。她不必去问这是对是错，也没有人可以告诉她，因为这样子再正确、再完美不过了。她把卡罗尔抱得更紧，感觉到卡罗尔的嘴贴在她自己微笑的双唇上。特芮丝一动也不动地躺着，看着她，看着只离她几厘米远的卡罗尔的脸，她从没见过她的眼睛那么平静，仿佛它们留在了她刚从中漂走的某个空间里。

Carol's hair that brushed her bare breasts，and then her body too seemed to vanish in widening circles that leaped further and further， beyond where thought could follow.While a thousand memories and moments，words，the first darling， the second time Carol had met her at the store， a thousand memories of Carols face， her voice， moments of anger and laughter flashed like the tail of a comet across her brain. And now it was pale blue distance and space， an expanding space in which she took fight suddenly like along arrow.The arrow seemed to cross an impossibly wide abyss with ease， seemed to arc on and on in space， and not quite to stop.Then she realized that she still clung to Carol， that she trembled violently， and the arrow was herself. She saw Carol's pale hair across her eyes， and now Carol’s head was close against hers.And she did not have to ask if this was right， no one had to tell her， because this could not have been more right or perfect.She held Carol tighter against her， and felt Carol’s mouth on her owns smiling mouth.Therese lay still，looking at her， at Carol’s face only inches away from her， the gray eyes clam as she had never seen them， as if they retained some of the space she had just emerged from. And it seemed strange that it was still Carol’s face， with the freckles， the bending blonde eyebrow that she knew， the mouth now as calm as her eyes， as Therese had seen it many times before.

那天深夜，她写了封信给卡罗尔：

你的消息太棒了，我在战士饭店独饮了一杯鸡尾酒庆祝。不是我作风保守，但你知道孤独一人时，一杯酒有三杯的效果吗?......我爱这个小城，因为这里让我想到你。我也知道你对这个小城没有特别的感觉，但这不是重点。我的意思是，我好希望你在这里，但你又不在这里…

She wrote to Carol late that night.

The news is wonderful.I celebrated with a single daiquiri at the Warrior.Not that I am conservative， but did you know that one drink has the kick of three when you are alone?...I love this town because ital reminds me of you.I know you don't like it anymore than any other town，but that isn't the point.I mean you are here as much as I can bear you to be， not being here..

卡罗尔的回信里面说：

你问我想不想念你，我想起你的声音、你的双手，还有你注视着我时的眼睛。我从来没有怀疑过你的勇气，你的勇气也为我带来了力量。亲爱的，打电话给我好吗?

Carol wrote：

You ask if I miss you. I think of your voice， your hands， and your eyes when you look straight into mine.I remember your courage that I hadn't suspected， and it giv es me courage. Will you call me， darling?

她站在门口，里面有钢琴在弹奏着，她细看坐在桌边的每个人。灯光不太亮，她一开始也没有看到她，她被比较远的那道墙的阴影遮住了，正面对着特芮丝。卡罗尔也没有看到她，因为有个男人坐在她对面，特芮丝也不知道那是谁。

She stood in the doorway， looking over the people at the tables in the room where a piano played.The lights were not bright， and she did not see her at first， half hidden in the shadow against the far wall， facing her.Nor did Carol see her.A man sat opposite her， Therese did not know who.

卡罗尔慢慢举起手，把头发往后拢，还有一次是往两边梳拢。特芮丝笑了，这就是卡罗尔会有的动作，就是她以前所深爱，以后也会一直深爱下去的卡罗尔。哦，现在爱她的方式不一样了，因为她已经是个新的人了，就像从头来过，重新再度首遇卡罗尔，但遇到的还是卡罗尔，不是别人。

Carol raised her hands lowly and brushed her hair back，once on either side，and Therese smiled because the gesture was Carol，and it was Carol she loved and would always love.Oh，in a different way now，because she was a different person，and it was like meeting Carol all over again，but it was still Carol and no one else.

无论在千百个不同的城市中，在千百个不同的房子里，还是在遥远的异邦，她们都会携手在一起。在天堂，在地狱，都是一样。特芮丝等待着。就在她准备走向卡罗尔之际，卡罗尔也看到她了。特芮丝看着她的笑容逐渐浮现，卡罗尔似乎难以置信地看了她一会儿，然后卡罗尔才举起手臂快速挥动，急切地向她打招呼。特芮丝从来没见过卡罗尔用这种方式打招呼。特芮丝走向她。

It would be Carol，in a thousand cities，a thousand houses，in foreign lands where they would go together， in heaven and in hell.Therese waited.Then as she was about to go to her，Carol saw her，seemed to stare at her incredulously a moment while Therese watched the slows me growing，before her arm lifted suddenly，her hand waved a quick，eager greeting that Therese had never seen before. Therese walked toward her.
