For me, the game would be to assume a very intelligent reader who can extrapolate a lot from a little. And that's become my definition of art; to get that pitch just right, where I can put a hint on page three, and the reader's ears go up a bit, as opposed to dropping it all on the first page.

对我来说,游戏是假设一个非常聪明的读者能从一点推断出很多。这就是我对艺术的定义;为了得到正确的音高,我可以在第三页放一个提示,这样读者的耳朵就会竖起来一点,而不是在第一页就全部掉下来。
