《双城记》的英文名是A Tale of Two Cities,书名将巴黎、伦敦两个大城市连结起来,讲述发生在二者之间的故事。《双城记》是他的重要代表作,通过一个受迫害的医生的经历,揭露了农民遭封建贵族迫害的真相。小说以巴黎、伦敦为主人公活动的舞台。主人公梅尼特医生18年前目睹法国贵族厄弗里蒙地残害农民的暴行,被无辜囚禁18年。
厄弗里蒙地的儿子代尔那憎恨本家族的残暴,放弃了爵位和领地,出走英国。梅尼特医生出狱后,在伦敦行医。女儿路茜爱上了代尔那,并与他结了婚。法国大革命中,代尔那被控告为共和国的敌人,判处死刑。面貌酷似代尔那的律师助手卡尔登为履行诺言,混进监狱,用药迷倒代尔那,代其受刑。
《双城记》的文学价值
小说通过法国大革命前贵族的暴行和梅尼特的遭遇,深刻揭示了大革命爆发的必然性和正义性。代尔那被无辜判刑和卡尔登的代友牺牲,反映了作者对革命暴力的异议和以“爱”来调和阶级矛盾的小资产阶级人道主义思想。
小说采用倒叙的手法,情节跌宕起伏,引人入胜,具有较高的艺术性。历来被认为是欧洲文学史上直接反映18世纪末法国资产阶级革命这一重大历史事件的杰出作品。

这不是原版开头吧?我记得有个词PeriodIt我一直不太懂,可能是某个时代的缩写吧,第一句话:The PeriodIt was the best of times

上一位的回答不完整 这句话还没说完 完整的是It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way--in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only.
