我写的双语小说《沐于浮华》Bathing In the Limelight那个曾经在省城乱葬岗卖“忆苦糖”的男人，那个被城管追得满街跑、蹲在墙角数铜板的男人，如今坐在深圳福田区最高档的写字楼里。办公室在四十八层，落地窗从天花板一直垂到地面，像一面巨大的、透明的墙。他坐在真皮办公椅上，脚下是川流不息的车流，那些车小得像蚂蚁，排着队，慢慢地爬。他有时候会盯着那些车看上很久，觉得它们不是在赶路，而是在替他丈量他和地面之间的距离。The man who once peddled "Memory-of-Hardship Candy" at the paupers' graveyard on the outskirts of the provincial capital—who was chased through the streets by city inspectors and squatted in alley corners counting copper coins—now sat in the most upscale office building in Shenzhen's Futian District. Forty-eighth floor. Floor-to-ceiling windows stretched from ceiling to floor like a giant wall of glass. He sat in a genuine leather executive chair, watching the traffic stream beneath his feet, cars no bigger than ants, lined up, crawling slowly. Sometimes he would stare at those cars for a long time, feeling as if they weren't driving anywhere—they were measuring, on his behalf, the distance between him and the ground.
