Bill Bryson。无需多言。《林中漫步》（A Walk in the Woods）或《小不列颠札记》（Notes from a Small Island）简直让我笑到抽筋。
Bill Bryson. Enough said. "A Walk in the Woods" or "Notes from a Small Island" had me in stiches.

……电线杆上拉着的线。这一张甚至包括了我现在坐着的石凳。能够看着地图就知道我的屁股精确到平方米地部署在哪里，这让我惊叹不已。”—— Bill Bryson，《Notes from a Small Island》（1997）
…lines strung from poles. This one even included the stone seat on which I sat now. It astounds me to be able to look at a map and know to the square metre where my buttocks are deployed.” — Bill Bryson, Notes from a Small Island (1997)
是的，我在一本 Bill Bryson 的书里读到过这个。我相当确定它出自 Bill Bryson 的《Notes From A Small Island》，因为这是我读过的唯一一本 Bill Bryson 的书。不管怎样，这种定价惯例有很多目的。首先，顾客期望找零。员工之间的社会惯例……

如果我正在写一篇关于 Bill Bryson 的书论文，我想在 MacBook 上打开《In a Sunburned Country》，同时想在 iPhone 上打开《Notes from a Small Island》呢？有正当理由让两台设备同时用同一个账号登录 Google 电子书。电子游戏则不同。很少有人同时玩两个……
