拉森的千禧旋风

虽然知道瑞典作家Stieg Larsson 的千禧三部曲在全球火翻了天,但读到今天纽约时报杂志上的一句话还是吃了一惊。文章开头说,千禧三部曲是自1840年代早期以来,除了哈利·波特以外,美国人最趋之如鹜想读的书。原话为:Except for “Harry Potter,” Americans haven’t been so eager for a book since the early 1840s, when they thronged the docks in New York, hailing incoming ships for news of Little Nell in Charles Dickens’s “Old Curiosity Shop.” 而不同的是,Harry Potter与狄更斯,原著都是英语小说,而千禧三部曲是翻译小说,闭塞的美国人终于对英语外的世界开眼了。
