第44封信 - 1952.05.11

“细品每一封信，感受日期，感受人类的长情。”

寄语

《84, Charing Cross Road》
从前的日色变得慢
车、马、邮件都慢
一生只够爱一个人

细品每一封信
感受书信的缓慢
感受人类的长情

英文原文

            14 East 95th St.
            New York City

            May 11, 1952

Dear Frank: Meant to write you the day the Angler arrived, just to thank you, the woodcuts alone are worth ten times the price of the book. What a weird world we live in when so beautiful a thing can be owned for life— for the price of a ticket to a Broadway movie palace, or 1/50th the cost of having one tooth capped. Well, if your books cost what they’re worth I couldn’t afford them! You’ll be fascinated to learn ( from me that hates novels) that I finally got round to Jane Austen and went out of my mind over Pride & Prejudice whice I can’t bring myself to take back to the library till you find me a copy of my own.

Regards to Nora and the wage-slaves. HH

二十年间缘悭一面
相隔万里莫逆于心
