All of us bear witness to
the dissolution of our piece of creation. Only
the novelist can restore to us, in the
miracle of ink that pours itself
like
blood onto paper, the lineaments of our lost
worlds, alive.

唯有小说家能凭借墨水拥有像血一样息行流
注纸上的奇迹，为我们恢复失去的世界，使它的面貌活灵活现。

a
living,
breathing
baby.
Norma Rosen, American novelist
创造能力既不是遗传的，也不是教
得会的。正如再怎样完美制作的洋娃娃，也

impossible
in

it
is
often
for
want
of
will,
rather than of means,
that man fails to succeed.

It
is
Enterprise
which
builds
and
improves
the
world's
possessions.
Thrift

may
not.
For
the
engine which drives Enteprise is not Thrift, but
Profit.
