精彩書摘
《時代周刊精選片段選讀第二輯(旅遊·娛樂)》:

I pushed on the heavy wooden door and entered a deep, unlit room with dark furniture. Seeing no one, I called out, and a man stepped through a doorway behind the bar. I explained my needs as best I could. He said the chef had yet to arrive and the restaurant wouldn't open for a few hours. My pack sagged heavy on my back. It would be a long climb on an empty stomach. I turned to go.
As I reached for the door he called after me. " Espera," he said. "Wait. "I stopped. With reluctance he told me he had just returned from a morning of
fishing, would I care for some trout? I dislike fish but I appreciated his generosity. I sat down in the dark to wait.
