Cause to Kill (An Avery Black Mystery—Book #1)

Published in French in 1961, and in English in 1964, How It Is is a novel in three parts, written in short paragraphs, which tell (abruptly, cajolingly, bleakly) of a narrator lying in the dark, in the mud, repeating his life as he hears it uttered - or remembered - by another voice. Told from within, from the dark, the story is tirelessly and intimately explicit about the feelings that pervade his world, but fragmentary and vague about all else therein or beyond. Together with Molloy, How It Is counts for many readers as Beckett's greatest accomplishment in the novel form. It is also his most challenging narrative, both stylistically and for the pessimism of its vision, which continues the themes of reduced circumstance, of another life before the present, and the self-appraising search for an essential self, which were inaugurated in the great prose narratives of his earlier trilogy.

她本无意入宫，却在父亲所谓的责任和荣光下，不得不选择承受。宫门似海，她早已有了觉悟，无心争斗，皇后或宫女，对她来说并无太多区别。不曾料到的是，自己也是宫中重重秘密的牺牲者，她竟是嫁给了一个痴儿，然而是痴儿便是不懂了感情了吗？“我叫洛琪，你呢？”她好像显得有点兴奋。然而，面对洛琪的热情，白衣男子却只是怔怔地站在那边，不吭声也不说话，只是嘴角挂着淡淡的弧度。她想，她无法忘记他的笛声，无法忘记他模糊带着笑意的脸庞，无法忘记他的眼神，无法忘记关于这个叫东方遥的少年的故事。是投入了情感，放入了真心，然而事实却残酷地让她发现，一切并不像表面所看到的那般。心痛的背后，更有欺骗和背叛。而最后的事实，竟是谁都不曾预料到的不是结局的结局。。。。。。

幼时，她问父亲：“喜欢上一个人，是否要坚持一生？”“你对他真的深爱时，你会觉得一生很短。”至此之后，她遇上他了，便知道此话之意。他们相恋，却换来一宗圣旨。踏入皇宫，她眼看他权倾天下，可惜她已经是别人的妻。“你有曾一刻喜欢过我？”她在他怀里问着。“你后悔过吗？”此为她的遗言。不是爱了就能够长相厮守，有着过多的身不由己，只怪有缘无分。
