1992年初,美国《出版家周刊》曾推出介绍春季新书的增刊,上面有一组将在春季出版新作的作家的谈话录,它们从不同角度帮助读者了解其新作,而这些新作,无论是纯文学还是通俗文学,无论是文坛宿将还是初出茅庐的新秀的作品,后来都上过美国各大报州的畅销书榜,有的还居榜首。现选译其中几篇。 In early 1992, the American magazine Publishers Weekly introduced a supplement to the spring new book featuring a group of transcripts of the writers who will publish new works in the spring, helping readers to understand their new works from different angles. These new works, whether pure literature or Popular literature, both literary places and fledgling rookie works, went on to be among the best-seller lists in the major U.S. newspapers and some topped the list. Now select some of them.
