The Great Gatsby — Page 9

English → Korean Full Text Level 7/10

Not even the effeminate swank of his riding clothes could hide the enormous power of that body—he seemed to fill those glistening boots until he strained the top lacing, and you could see a great pack of muscle shifting when his shoulder moved under his thin coat.

그의 승마복이 풍기는 나약한 허세조차도 그 육체의 엄청난 힘을 감출 수는 없었다—그는 마치 윗부분 끈이 터질 듯 반짝이는 장화를 가득 채우는 것처럼 보였고, 얇은 코트 아래로 어깨가 움직일 때마다 근육 덩어리가 꿈틀거리는 것을 볼 수 있었다.

It was a body capable of enormous leverage—a cruel body.

그것은 엄청난 힘을 발휘할 수 있는 육체였다—잔인한 육체였다.

His speaking voice, a gruff husky tenor, added to the impression of fractiousness he conveyed.

걸걸하고 허스키한 테너인 그의 말소리는 그가 풍기는 다루기 힘든 인상을 더욱 강하게 했다.

There was a touch of paternal contempt in it, even toward people he liked—and there were men at New Haven who had hated his guts.

그 목소리에는 자신이 좋아하는 사람들에게조차도 약간의 가부장적인 경멸이 담겨 있었다—그리고 뉴헤이븐에는 그를 속으로 몹시 증오했던 사람들이 있었다.

"Now, don't think my opinion on these matters is final," he seemed to say, "just because I'm stronger and more of a man than you are."

"자, 내가 이런 문제들에 대해 최종적인 의견을 가지고 있다고 생각하지 마세요," 그는 말하는 것처럼 보였다, "단지 내가 당신보다 더 강하고 더 남자답다는 이유만으로요."

We were in the same senior society, and while we were never intimate I always had the impression that he approved of me and wanted me to like him with some harsh, defiant wistfulness of his own.

우리는 같은 졸업반 클럽에 있었고, 비록 우리가 친밀한 사이는 아니었지만 나는 항상 그가 나를 인정하고 그 특유의 거칠고 반항적인 그리움으로 나에게 자신을 좋아해 주기를 바란다는 인상을 받았다.

We talked for a few minutes on the sunny porch.

우리는 햇살이 내리쬐는 현관에서 몇 분간 이야기를 나눴다.

"I've got a nice place here," he said, his eyes flashing about restlessly.

"여기 멋진 곳이죠," 그는 눈을 이리저리 불안하게 번뜩이며 말했다.

Turning me around by one arm, he moved a broad flat hand along the front vista, including in its sweep a sunken Italian garden, a half acre of deep, pungent roses, and a snub-nosed motorboat that bumped the tide offshore.

한 팔로 나를 돌려세우며, 그는 넓고 평평한 손을 앞쪽 전망을 따라 움직였는데, 그 손짓에는 움푹 들어간 이탈리아식 정원, 반 에이커의 짙고 향기로운 장미밭, 그리고 앞머리가 뭉툭한 보트가 먼바다의 조류에 부딪히는 광경이 모두 포함되었다.

"It belonged to Demaine, the oil man." He turned me around again, politely and abruptly. "We'll go inside.

"이곳은 석유 재벌 드메인의 소유였죠." 그는 정중하면서도 갑작스럽게 나를 다시 돌려세웠다. "안으로 들어가죠.
