Surely this is not the 90-year-old master's last work.With Confabulations (Penguin), John Berger fashions his brand of reflective and sensual prose into a slim but utterly beautiful book.From Rosa Luxemburg to eel fishermen, from a prisoner painter to Charlie Chaplin, this essay collection can be read in one sitting—which I did in a café.
這當然不會是這位90歲高齡的大師的最后一本著作?！短摌?gòu)》這本纖薄卻又迷人的書里，約翰·白爾杰繼續(xù)發(fā)揚他的招牌風格：引人深思而又感性的散文。從羅莎·盧森堡到鰻魚捕魚者，從囚犯畫家到查理·卓別林，隨處一坐就適合拿出這本隨筆集翻開看看——我就是在咖啡廳讀的這本書。
You feel his realness: “I picture myself not so much as a consequential, professional writer, but as a stopgap man.” The more I read Berger, the more I adore him.Tell me: why do the best English artists always live outside Britain?
你可以感受到他的真誠。他說，“我不把自己想象成什么重要的、專業(yè)的作家，我不過是一個臨時湊合事兒的”。越是讀約翰·白爾杰，我越是崇拜他。告訴我：為什么最好的英國藝術家總是在英國之外生活？（約翰·白爾杰目前定居在法國）
