  • 我和钱钟书的爱情故事

    杨绛，著名作家、翻译家

    【编者注：杨绛1911年7月17日出生于北京，是一位历经风雨的百岁老人。1928年，杨绛是苏州振华女中的本年度毕业生，也是苏州十全街旧校址上老振华女校毕业的最后一届学生。1932年在苏州东吴大学毕业，之后入读北京清华研究院做外国语研究生，并认识钱钟书。杨绛著有《风》、《窗帘》、《干校六记》、《洗澡》、《我们仨》、《杂忆与杂写》、《走到人生边上：自问自答》等；剧本《称心如意》、《弄真成假》；译著有《堂吉诃德》、《斐多》、《小癞子》等。】

    我第一次和钟书见面是在1932年3月，他身着青布大褂，脚踏毛底布鞋，戴一副老式眼镜，眉宇间蔚然而深秀。见面后老钱开始给我写信，约我到工字厅相会。见面时，他的第一句话就是：“我没有订婚。”而我则紧张的回答：“我也没有男朋友。”于是便开始鸿雁往来，越写越勤，一天一封，以至于他放假就回家了。我难受了好多时。冷静下来，觉得不好，这是fall in love了。
