……读物：《吉迪恩·麦克遗嘱》（The Testament of Gideon Mack）：https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/014102335X 《世界尽头与冷酷仙境》（Hard Boiled Wonderland）：https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/0099448785 《玻璃之上》（Walking on Glass）：https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B002TXZTE8 《吃姜饼的人》（The Ginger Man）：https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/0349108757 也许算不上真正的邪典经典，但这些往往都是我反复推荐或者多次买来送给朋友的书，而且我自己也会隔三差五拿出来重读一遍。

……https://www.amazon.co.uk/Unexpurgated-Code-Complete-Survival... 我在火车上读这本书的时候，一边拼命憋笑一边眼泪止不住地往下流。周围不少人看我都像看怪人一样。堂利维（Donleavy）的《吃姜饼的人》（The Ginger Man）也同样非常值得一读。
…https://www.amazon.co.uk/Unexpurgated-Code-Complete-Survival... I read this on a train and the tears were dripping off my face whilst trying to control my laughter. I got plenty of funny looks. Donleavy's "The Ginger Man" is also well worth a read.
……到处都是。我有几百本书，真要挑哪些该扔进废纸回收箱我还真舍不得。直到今天，哪怕是我那些 1970 年代破破烂烂的平装本，比如《1984》、《美丽新世界》或者《吃姜饼的人》，依然能引发长谈，因为来串门的朋友可以随意翻阅你的书架。
…around. I have hundreds of books and I'd find it hard to decide which ones should hit the recycler. To this day yet even my scrappy 1970's paperback copies of stuff like 1984, Brave New World or The Ginger Man still elicit long conversations because visiting friends can freely browse your shelves.
……当年卖出的书比雷·布拉德伯里一辈子卖的还要多。你读过吗？听过吗？随口举几个例子，《冷暖人间》（Peyton Place）在当年的销量，或者《花生漫画的福音》（The Gospel According to Peanuts），又或者《吃姜饼的人》（The Ginger Man），还有《天地一沙鸥》（Jonathan Livingstone Seagull），它们在当红时的销量无疑都把雷·布拉德伯里秒得渣都不剩。可一旦风潮过去，这类书大多便归于虚无，就算没彻底绝版，也……
…books than Ray Bradbury will ever have sold in his whole life in its year. Have you read it? Heard of it? Off the top of my head, Peyton Place in its year, or The Gospel According to Peanuts, or The Ginger Man, or Jonathan Livingstone Seagull in their years undoubtedly outsold all of Ray Bradbury. But when their day is done, mostly those kind of books drift back into the void, and go, if not out of print, then…
