对我这种浅薄的人来说,皮相之必要,有时甚于内涵。像《守望灯塔》,之所以千里迢迢从上海书城拖回家,只是为了它的书名和装帧。宁谧的靛蓝色背景上有个灯塔昏蒙的影子,发亮的是黄色信号灯,强烈的视觉冲击。印象中前些年是找过这本书的,但当时没有中文版。英文版的封面上有怒涛拍打塔身,比中文版更美。而守望灯塔二字,更是暗合了某些已经倾圮在海岛的记忆。 For me, a superficial person, skin is necessary, sometimes more than connotation. Like “watch over the lighthouse,” the reason why thousands of miles dragged back from the Shanghai Bookstore, just for its title and binding. There is a drowsy shadow of a lighthouse on a serene indigo background, shining yellow signal lights, a strong visual impact. A few years ago in the impression is to find the book, but at the time there is no Chinese version. Angry in the English version of the cover beat tower, more beautiful than the Chinese version. The towering word of the lighthouse, but also coincides with some of the memories have been dumping in the island.
