Breakfast at Tiffany's (Penguin Modern Classics) ペーパーバック – 2000/4/27
購入オプションとあわせ買い
Immortalised by Audrey Hepburn's sparkling performance in the 1961 film of the same name, Breakfast at Tiffany's is Truman Capote's timeless portrait of tragicomic cultural icon Holly Golightly, published in Penguin Modern Classics.
It's New York in the 1940s, where the martinis flow from cocktail hour till breakfast at Tiffany's. And nice girls don't, except, of course, for Holly Golightly: glittering socialite traveller, generally upwards, sometimes sideways and once in a while - down. Pursued by to Salvatore 'Sally' Tomato, the Mafia sugar-daddy doing life in Sing Sing and 'Rusty' Trawler, the blue-chinned, cuff-shooting millionaire man about women about town, Holly is a fragile eyeful of tawny hair and turned-up nose, a heart-breaker, a perplexer, a traveller, a tease. She is irrepressibly 'top banana in the shock deparment', and one of the shining flowers of American fiction.
This edition also contains three stories: 'House of Flowers', 'A Diamond Guitar' and 'A Christmas Memory'.
Truman Capote (1924-84) was born in New Orleans. He left school when he was fifteen and subsequently worked for The New Yorker, which provided his first - and last - regular job. He wrote both fiction and non-fiction - short stories, novels and novellas, travel writing, profiles, reportage, memoirs, plays and films; his other works include In Cold Blood (1965), Music for Chameleons (1980) and Answered Prayers (1986), all of which are published in Penguin Modern Classics.
If you enjoyed Breakfast at Tiffany's, you might like Capote's In Cold Blood, also available in Penguin Modern Classics.

村上春樹による新訳が新潮社より発行されたため、そちらを手に取ったのだが、読み始めてすぐに自分が間違いを犯していることに気がついた。すなわち、この本はできるなら原文で読むべきだということだ。それほど、主人公ホリー・ゴライトリーの台詞は輝いているのだ。地の文においても空気やリズムは訳しがたいものであるが、とりわけ風味が失われやすいのは、詩に次いでは台詞だろう。登場人物の言葉がみずみずしく、心惹かれる作品は、できるかぎり原文で読みたい。
カポーティという作家は、長じては都会的な生活を送ったらしいが、心の深いところでは純真なものを抱いたままだったらしい。ホリーは、自宅での浮っついたパーティの最中で言う、"(もし彼女が有名になるとして)if it happens, I'd like to have my ego tagging along. I want to still be me when i wake up one fine morning and have breakfast at Tiffany's." 彼女の魅力の本質が表れた言葉だと思う。自分らしくあることは譲れない、と。
ある見方では、彼女は都会的なものと純真さとの間で引き裂かれているようにもみえる。しかし、なじんだニューヨークを捨ててまで自分のegoを通した彼女は、きっと都会的欲求を飼い慣らして、本当の自分でいられる場所を見つけたはずだ。彼女の置いていった猫のように。
少なくとも、カポーティはそれを信じて物語を締めくくったはずだ。
私には少し見慣れない単語が多かったですが、短編ということもありスッと読めました。
ストーリーが頭に入っているので、どちらかというと「あのシーンは原作ではどんな表現だったのか」「あの台詞は原文ではどうなっているのか」という視点で読んでいました。
大好きな台詞を原文で読むと、翻訳版とはまた違う感動があります。
特にホリーの台詞がどれをとっても魅力的です。翻訳版から想像していたよりもずっとシンプルで無駄がない言い回しに、「私だったらどう訳すだろうか」「この台詞はどう解釈できるだろうか」と、作品を味わう幸せが広がりました。
読んだあとも、翻訳版をもう一度読み、さらに好きなシーンの翻訳版と原文を読み比べたり、映画を観て原作とはまた違う解釈を楽しんだりと、味わい尽くしてます。
こんなにも丁寧に読みたいと思えた作品は初めてです。
私のように、名作をあまり原文で読んだことがないという方には、翻訳版と併せて読むのをぜひおすすめしたい一冊です。
洗練された簡潔で的確な表現である。
同じアパートに住む友達としてFredが描くHolly Golightlyの性格と心理深層が見事に
表現されている。
A Chistmas Memory
7歳の少年と年の離れた従姉との甘く切ない関係を描いている。
毎年クリスマスを待つ二人は友達の関係である。
最後は自然と涙が出てしまった。
その他2編の短編も心あたたまる作品である。
ところで今回は、どういう訳か、「Breakfast at Tiffany's」、そしてこの本に含まれているほかの3つの短編を、とりあえず読み通すことができた。楽しめたか、と問われると、あまり自信はない。どちらかというと、短い作品ばかりなので、勢いで読むことができた、という方に近い。「ティファニーで朝食を」という題名なのだから、さぞかしおしゃれな小説だと思っていたのだ。だが、Hollyという主人公の女性は、最初はなかなかすてきな女性なのだが、だんだんとその正体が明らかになってくると、やや興醒めしてしまった。そして彼女は、麻薬事件に巻き込まれてしまい、最後は海外に逃げてしまう。でも、五番街のティファニーで朝食する?より、こちらの方がおもしろいかもしれない……。
他の3編の小説は、設定がなかなか興味深い。「House of Flowers」では、主人公Ottilieがおぞましい出汁でスープを作る場面がなかなかすさまじい。この本に収録されている作品で最も楽しめたのは、最後の「A Christmas Memory」かもしれない。主人公はお金がないながらも、同居する友人とさまざまな努力と工夫をしてクリスマス用のフルーツケーキを作るという設定なのだが、心和ませるものがある。
村上の言う、“……こんなにきれいな文章……”は、どこにあっただろうか。情景描写はたしかに、きれいだし、特異なものもあったのだけれども……。

Author:Truman Capote
(Suddenly becomes my favourite author.I have read all his stories and also the sensational non-fiction novel In Cold Blood.Seems I will soon devour rest of his writings...) His story 'One Christmas Memory'...almost a non-fiction again...has carved a permanent place in my heart...One of the most poignant I have ever read...And, please, don't take it lightly...I have been reading Hemingway side by side.
I wish Capote would have lived longer and would have written more..And more people knew about his writings.
A 98 pages one breath long story .The central character of this book is Holly Golightly..a girl who hates the thought of any living being kept in cages..who advises against falling in love with wild beings...hawks..crows..or women...
Who doesn't think that a person can ever belong to any other person and most importantly, she has her concept of what a place with complete bliss would be like...it would be like Breakfast at Tiffany's....where the confidence,elegance and comfort arising out of affluence permeates the ambience...and nothing can go wrong at such places. Everything in a calm control.
All women have a Holly in them..and all have their own imagination of their personal breakfasts at Tiffany's.
(About the movie:May be later....someday we will talk about that....
There is a wonderful movie with the same name based on this book. A beautiful movie with Audrey Hepburn as Holly....
Well, I don't ever get into the debate of the book or the movie.They are two separate media..asking for different sets of methods and treatments...in different types of hands......)
This is not a review.This is an attempt to capture my own awe in words...and to share something that is much more than a joy of reading!
Reviewing Truman Capote is almost blasphemous.One has to just read him and enter the solitude where he takes us..a world where he has observed everything..
The rain..the mist..the whiff...and even the skidding of wet leaves..
Capote was king of observations.The reader inside us starts looking at all those things and sentiments which one might not have cared to register till now. Capote just conquers your heart and keeps it in his hands to take us to a world you know you have not seen, but you feel that you have travelled there again...you have memories calling....
Capote is wistful always..in all his writings..always longing for some feeling of the past..missing something which he doesn't seem to put in a concrete shape...a loss which he cannot put his finger on..doesn't know whether it existed.
And when you read Capote, you see everything he has seen and noted.
