…we disagree on "The Unberable Lightness of Being", but that is fine, I guess. I think Murakami is at his best in "Norwegian Wood" and "South of the Border" -- in different ways.

…the world. There were huge aisles of random throwaway junk, games and other silliness and two books on Chinese history. Nor did they have Bertrand Russel's Principles of Mathematics or Aldous Huxley's Chrome Yellow. I love books. Paper books. I have around a thousand of them. But I won't cry for the passing of the big-box stores if they're bent on becoming the Wal-Mart of reading.
…of its intolerable tedium. At present people in search of pleasure naturally tend to congregate in large herds and to make a noise; in future their natural tendency will be to seek solitude and quiet. Chrome Yellow, Aldous Huxley
…proliferation and consolidation of wealth is a usurper of such relations and events to spawn current literature, in the now. Having read the seminal Huxley work, I'm now looking forward to consuming Chrome Yellow, with verve.
……我们在《不能承受的生命之轻》上有分歧，不过也挺好，我想。我觉得村上春树在《挪威的森林》和《国境以南》里发挥得最好——各自以不同的方式。你可能也会喜欢赫胥黎的《Chrome Yellow》。如果想看点不一样的，可以试试肖编选的《American Essays》（http://www.amazon.com/American-Essays-Charles-B-Shaw/dp/B000...）。如果你喜欢关于乔布斯的书，你也许……

……因为它那种难以忍受的乏味。目前，寻求快乐的人们自然倾向于成群结队并大声喧哗；而未来，他们天生的倾向将是寻求孤独与宁静。——阿道司·赫胥黎，《Chrome Yellow》
