西奥多·弗朗西斯·波伊斯和弗吉尼亚·伍尔夫是同时代作家,他没有卷入到上个世纪初期英国现代主义和现实主义的文学论争之中,但他独树一帜,以鲜明的观点,犀利的词锋,探索着人类共同关心的美与丑、爱与恨、生与死等问题。他大力颂扬美德,奋力鞭挞丑恶,把人类残酷、贪婪、虚伪、淫荡和自私的一面描述得淋漓尽致,他的作品充满着浓厚的乡间文化旋律。 Theodore Frances Powys and Virginia Woolf were contemporaries, and he was not involved in the literary debates of British modernism and realism in the early part of the last century. However, he is unique in his standpoint. Sharp word front, exploring the common concern of mankind beauty and ugliness, love and hate, life and death and other issues. He praised the United States vigorously, struggled to whip the ugly, human cruelty, greed, hypocrisy, sensuality and selfish side described most vividly, his work is full of strong rural cultural melody.
