中At the far end of the bay, set against a mountain slope and surrounded by bog land, was a cluster of dilapidated, rusty, corrugated iron buildings. Huge sections of the roofs and walls were missing, and those that remained rattled incessantly in the near gale-force wind. It looked as if a natural disaster had struck. I stopped at an ‘Asbestos – Keep Out’ sign and peered through the encroaching mist, my extremities numb from the sub-zero conditions. It was a struggle to picture the station as a thriving community, yet a century ago Stromness was part of a highly profitable – and brutal – industry that transformed South Georgia into the whaling capital of the South Atlantic.
在海湾的远端,背靠一座山坡,被沼泽地包围着的是一群年久失修、褪色起皱的铁房子。大片大片的屋顶和墙壁已经不在了,断垣废墟在近乎七级以上的大风中不断地嘎嘎作响。这里似乎被一场自然灾害洗劫过。我在一块“有石棉瓦,请勿进入”的告示处止步,只能透过越来越浓的雾气朝里望,这时我的四肢在零度低温下已失去知觉。很难想像这个已成废墟的捕鲸站曾是一个生机勃勃的社区。然而在100年前,斯特伦内斯湾曾经见证了一个盈利颇丰并且残暴无情的行业,这一行业将南乔治亚岛变成了南大西洋的捕鲸天堂。
