I am most interested in people, in meeting them and finding out about them. Some of the most remarkable people I’ve met existed only in a writer’s imagination, then on the pages of his book, and then again, in my imagination. I’ve found in books new friends, new societies, and new worlds.
我最感興趣的是人,是認識他們,了解他們。我所見過的一些最了不起的人,只是存在于一個作家的想象中,然后出現在他的書中,然后又出現在我的想象中。我在書中發現了新的朋友,新的社會,新的世界。
