Winter is coming


這兩天,明顯冷起來了。屋子裡的中央暖氣也啟動了,隱約有了冬天的氣息。

 

前天在Strand 買了村上春樹的《What I talk about when I talk about running》,

等不及中譯,讀英譯,發現更喜歡英譯簡潔明快的風格,像Raymond Carver

村上在西方世界愈來愈紅,我不懷疑他在未來幾年會得諾貝爾文學獎,而我想他是在乎這個獎的。也等著看他下一部長篇小說,雖然現在我更愛讀他的隨筆和短篇。

 

 

跑馬拉松的村上說:

 

Here it is: Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional. Say you’re running and you start to think, Man this hurts, I can’t take it anymore. The hurt part is an unavoidable reality, but whether or not you can stand any more is up to the runner himself.

我也喜歡英譯多一點。
