Going for Broke

atea Gold and David Ferrell

1 Rex Coile's life is a narrow box, so dark

and confining he wonders how he got trapped

inside, whether he'll ever get out.

孤注一掷

泰娅·戈尔德 戴维·费雷尔

雷克斯·科勒好像生活在一个狭窄的箱子里，

伸手不见五指，空间又狭小，他不知道自己是怎

么陷进去的，也不知道自己还能不能走出来。

2 He never goes to the movies, never sees

concerts, never lies on a sunny beach, never

travels on vacation, never spends Christmas

with his family. Instead, Rex shares floor

space in cheap motels with other compulsive

gamblers, comforting himself with

delusional dreams of jackpots that will

magically wipe away three decades of

wreckage. He has lost his marriage, his home,

his Cadillac, his clothes, his diamond ring.
