母亲望子成龙,盼子能出人头地,功成名就,跻身上流社会,摆脱贫穷,日进斗金;儿子却想坚持写作理想,放弃教师职位和诱人薪金。面对母亲的期许和自身的理想之间的矛盾,儿子最终选择了后者。世界上最快乐的事莫过于为理想而奋斗,劳伦斯在《出人头地》一文中记叙了自己如何坚持理想,并用自己的方式“出人头地”,同时作者也表达了自己对母亲所怀有的复杂感情。
D. H. 劳伦斯的短篇散文《出人头地》回忆了其与母亲相处的点点滴滴。母亲代表着劳伦斯生命中的所有崇高的事物,但她一生贫困,因此渴望子女出人头地,看不起他对写作的热情。而他坚持写作,终于让母亲看到了自己发表的作品。虽然母亲已去世,他却依然在思量她对自己会有什么看法。文章笔触细腻,表达了作者对母亲的深切怀念,体现出劳伦斯对母亲所怀有的复杂情感。
劳伦断的散文和他的小说一样超凡脱俗,同样富有勇气和个性。他的桀骜不驯的性格与敏锐的艺术直觉使得他的散文在拥有浓重的遗世独立的特点的背后,往往散发出能够启迪人的智慧和给人顿悟的光辉。
“劳伦斯是我们这个时代最伟大而充满想象力的作家。这位先知先觉者从内心发散着大自然的光彩,每一种颜色都熠熠生辉,每一个形状都各具特点。”——E. M. 福斯特
"No other writer with his imaginative standing has in our time written books that are so open to life." —Alfred Kazin
“Lawrence had that quality of genius which sucks out of ordinary experience essences strange or unknown to men.” —Anaïs Nin
