朱翻译
我写的双语小说《沐于浮华》Bathing in the Limelight她用不耐烦的手势朝那叠粗糙发灰的纸浆包装纸一指：“这个？这是用来包鱼头的，不是用来包一种应该尝出罪恶滋味的糖果。去给我找些旧的外国报纸来——《泰晤士报》《费加罗报》，随便什么上面印着没人能看懂的文字的都行。每一颗都要包得又紧又方正，看起来像一块小小的、珍贵的金砖。然后，你拿我自己的那方朱砂印章——就是我写信用的那一方——把它按进热蜡里。一个所有权的标记。一道火的烙印。”She shot an impatient glance at the pile of dusty, grayish pulp paper and curled her lip: "This stuff? This is meant for wrapping fish heads, not something that ought to carry a hint of damnation in every bite. Go find some old foreign newspapers—The Times, or Le Figaro—anything written in a script nobody around here can decipher. Wrap each candy into a neat little square, as tight and solid as a gold ingot. Then, take that cinnabar seal of mine—the one I use for my letters—dip it in hot wax, and stamp it on. That's my mark. A brand seared by fire."
