你知道甚麼叫做川流不息罷

經過我的眼前
Beyond my own
preoccupations, we live in a society where life keeps being extended by modern
science and more and more of us will consequently find ourselves needing to
decide what to do with our existence for decades after retiring.

雖然這兩天正在重讀red dragon (1981)
而且仍然相信我還有直覺
To write a
novel, you begin with what you can see and then you add what came before and
what came after.
Sometimes at
night I would leave the lights on in my little house and walk across the flat
fields. When I looked back from a distance, the house looked like a boat at
sea, and all around me the vast Delta night.
Standing
baffled in the vast fields outside my cabin in the heart of the night, the
sound of breathing all around me, my vision still clouded with the desk lamp, I
tried to see what had happened at the crime scene. All that came to my dim
sight were loomings, intimations, the occasional glow when a retina not human
reflected the moon.
There was no
question that something had happened.
You must understand that when you are writing a novel you are not making
anything up. It’s all there and you just have to find it.
