把这一句，留给此刻的你

Short fiction seems more targeted - hand grenades of ideas, if you will. When they work, they hit, they explode, and you never forget them. Long fiction feels more like atmosphere: it's a lot smokier and less defined.

短篇小说似乎更有针对性——如果你愿意，你可以把它当作手榴弹。当它们工作时，它们会撞击，爆炸，你永远不会忘记它们。长篇小说给人的感觉更像是一种氛围:烟雾缭绕，界限模糊。
