我写的双语小说《沐于浮华》Bathing In the Limelight王格斯按下了按钮。那是一个再普通不过的动作——食指弯曲,指腹触到塑料按钮的表面,施加大约两牛顿的力,向下,咔嗒一声。就这么简单。三十年的铁锅、三十年的柴火、三十年的凌晨四点,就在这一声咔嗒里,被抹去了,像橡皮擦掉铅笔字,留下一点灰屑,吹一口气,就什么都没了。Gus Wang pushed the button.It was the most ordinary gesture in the world—the index finger curling, the pad of the finger meeting the plastic surface of the button, applying perhaps two newtons of force, downward, click. That was all. Thirty years of iron cauldron, thirty years of firewood, thirty years of four-in-the-morning darkness—erased in a single click, like pencil marks rubbed out by an eraser, leaving behind a few crumbs of gray dust, and one breath later, nothing at all.
