我写的双语小说《沐于浮华》Bathing in the Limelight“国家还能让钱变成废纸不成？”他对着空荡荡的屋子问，仿佛有无数无形的见证者正端坐审判。“我就不信这种瞎掰。”可是国家不管这些。国家就像天上的云，你看得见，摸不着，它飘到哪里算哪里。王狗剩这样的蝼蚁，在国家的棋盘上连个卒子都算不上。国家说要改革，那就改革；国家说要贬值，那就贬值。没有人会专门跑到王狗剩的灶房里，蹲在他面前，看着他那双布满老茧的手，跟他说一声对不起。"The state wouldn't let its own currency become trash, would it?" he asked the empty room, as though legions of invisible witnesses sat in judgment. "I refuse to believe such nonsense."But the state paid no heed to such concerns.The state was like clouds drifting across the sky—visible, untouchable, moving wherever the winds carried it.Men like Doggy Wang were mere ants, not even worth a single pawn on the state's chessboard.When the state decreed reform, reform there would be. When the state ordained devaluation, devaluation came to pass.No one would ever bother to go to Doggy Wang's stove-side kitchen, squat down before him, gaze at his calloused hands, and say to him, "I'm sorry."
