21 on the rocks
1) в тяжёлом положении; на краю гибели; см. тж. go on the rocksCaptain Shotover: "The Church is on the rocks, breaking up." (B. Shaw, ‘Heartbreak House’, act III) — Капитан Шотовер: "Церковь швырнуло на скалы, ее разнесет в щепы..."
How near she had been to drifting on the rocks when Cowperwood had appeared. (Th. Dreiser, ‘The Titan’, ch. L) — Разве не была она на краю гибели, когда на ее пути появился Каупервуд.
And now his marriage was on the rocks; May wanted to divorce him and he had promised to let her if she still wanted to after the war was over. (W. S. Maugham, ‘The Hour before the Dawn’, ch. XIV) — Его семья разваливалась. Мей настаивала на разводе, и он обещал дать ей свободу, когда война кончится, если, конечно, она все еще будет настаивать на этом.
2) в стеснённых обстоятельствах; ≈ на мелиThe lot and portion of one in eight British workers remains the lot of unemployment: 1.460.000 citizens of this great democracy are still on the rocks, despite the so-called boom, which already is hurtling towards its inevitable capitalist sequel - a disastrous slump. (H. Pollitt, ‘Selected Articles and Speeches’, ‘Salute to the Soviet Union’) — Уделом каждого восьмого английского рабочего остается безработица: 1460 тысяч граждан этой великой "демократии" все еще находятся в стесненных обстоятельствах, несмотря на так называемый бум, который уже ведет к неизбежному при капитализме результату - катастрофическому кризису.
‘Financially you are on the rocks then?’ ‘...I think I've never been off the rocks, really.’ (Th. Dreiser, ‘The Stoic’, ch. 13) — - Итак, значит, говоря о финансах, вы сейчас очутились на мели? -...По правде говоря, я по-настоящему с этой мели и не съезжал.
But there was no next number of the Native Companion. The magazine did not survive the gay ways of its creator and editor. A rumour spread that when its business affairs were on the rocks, he and his partner went off on a spree and got somebody to announce to creditors that they were dead. (K. S. Prichard, ‘Child of the Hurricane’, ch. XIV) — Однако следующий номер "Собеседника" так и не вышел. Беспутная жизнь его основателя и редактора роковым образом сказалась на судьбе журнала. Поговаривали, что, когда финансовые дела этого издания приняли плачевный оборот, Брэди и его компаньон поручили кому-то сообщить кредиторам о своей смерти, а сами отправились в увеселительную поездку.
Everybody's got a drink... And I... am going to have a dry martini on the rocks. (J. Baldwin, ‘Another Country’, book I, ch. III) — Похоже, что все выпивают... Я... буду пить сухое мартини со льдом.
