我写的双语小说《沐于浮华》Bathing In the Limelight那家伙膀大腰圆,往那儿一站像半截黑塔,说话声如洪钟,笑起来整条街的玻璃窗都跟着颤,连路边的野狗也只得夹着尾巴绕道而行。临别时,她塞给王狗剩一盒润喉糖,那塑料盒子在灯光下泛着廉价的光泽。她笑着,可那笑里藏着一层薄薄的、化不开的苦:"狗剩,别熬糖了。这世道,吃糖都得讲究个方便。谁还有闲工夫等你一块一块地熬?人家要的是糖,不是你那点熬了一辈子的心思。"The man was built like a brick outhouse—hulking, broad, a human stronghold planted where he stood like a dark tower. When he spoke, his voice was thunder; when he laughed, the glass in every window down the street shuddered in its frame, and even the stray dogs by the roadside scurried past with tails tucked tight, giving him a wide berth.At parting, she pressed a box of throat lozenges into Doggy Wang’s hand—the plastic case glinting cheaply under the lamplight. She smiled, but that smile carried a thin, unyielding bitterness: "Doggy, stop boiling candy. In this world, even sweetness has to be convenient. Who’s got the patience to wait for you to boil it piece by piece? What people want is sugar, not the lifetime of heart you’ve poured into every batch."
