I'm writing for my ideal reader, for somebody who's willing to take the time, who's willing to get lost in a new world, who's willing to do their part. But then I have to do my part and give them a sound and a voice that they believe in enough to keep going.

  • -- Elizabeth Strout 伊丽莎白·斯特劳特

我在为我理想的读者写作,为那些愿意花时间,愿意迷失在新世界,愿意尽自己的一份力量的人写作。但我必须尽自己的一份力量,给他们一个声音,一个他们深信不疑的声音,让他们继续前进。
