A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
饥饿
Hunger
The novel is about, for me, sustained and organized looking. I do think that people have a hunger for a sustained engagement, that concentration that the book can offer.
对我来说，这部小说是关于持续和有组织的寻找。我确实认为人们渴望一种持续的参与，那种书中所能提供的专注。
That hunger of the flesh, that longing for ease, that terror of incarceration, that insistence on tribal honour being obeyed: all of that exists, and it exists everywhere.
对肉体的渴望，对安逸的渴望，对监禁的恐惧，对部落荣誉的坚持——所有这些都存在，而且无处不在。
