在《窥镜》中，一个女人疯狂地为她患了斑疹伤寒的丈夫寻求帮助，最终收获了一个大“惊喜” 。这部作品刚好与契诃夫医生的职业相呼应 。

Then she saw against the grey background how her husband every spring was in straits for money to pay the interest for the mortgage to the bank. He could not sleep, she could not sleep, and both racked their brains till their heads ached, thinking how to avoid being visited by the clerk of the Court.
在灰色的背景下，她看到丈夫每年春天为贷款利息而捉襟见肘 。他夜不能寐，她也一样，他们为此绞尽脑汁，想得脑袋生疼，生怕法庭找上门来 。
She saw her children: the everlasting apprehension of colds, scarlet fever, diphtheria, bad marks at school, separation. Out of a brood of five or six one was sure to die.
她看到了她的孩子们，总是生活在无尽的恐惧中：他们害怕感冒、猩红热、白喉，害怕成绩差，害怕被分开 。一个人若离开了五六人的小群体，那将必死无疑 。

内容简介
Nabokov\\'s prose is no doubt poetic, and his language enjoyably playful. Whether you\\'ve already read Lolita or Pale Fire, or are hesitating to pick them up, this short story about a delusional boy, his family, and his peers\\' attempt to buy him a birthday present, is sure to entertain you.

The last time the boy had tried to do it, his method had been, in the doctor\\'s words, a masterpiece of inventiveness; he would have succeeded had not an envious fellow-patient thought he was learning to fly and stopped him just in time. What he had really wanted to do was to tear a hole in his world and escape.
上一次他们的儿子企图自杀，他的方法是，用医生的话说，一个创造发明的杰作；如果不是一个嫉妒的病友以为他是在学着飞——而适时阻止了他，他就成功了 。其实他真正想做的只是要在他的世界里撕开一个洞好逃出去 。
All this, and much more, she had accepted, for, after all, living does mean accepting the loss of one joy after another, not even joys in her case, mere possibilities of improvement.
这一点，以及其他种种，她都接受了，因为终究生活意味着要接受一个接一个快乐的丧失，在她这里，甚至不是什么快乐，只是生活改善的可能性而已 。
