我希望读者能感受到一些令人惊讶的东西。不是“发生了什么”,而是所有事情发生的方式。这些长篇短篇小说对我来说是最好的。
I want the reader to feel something is astonishing. Not the 'what happens,' but the way everything happens. These long short story fictions do this best, for me.
我本人是个乐观主义者,因为做别的貌似没什么用。
译文:心能明辨是非,就能快速而又果断处理事情;不忘记礼义廉耻,做人就会一身正气,不与卑污的人同流合污。
History is not just what happened, but what we remember and how we remember it.
