有一种鸟,一生只唱一次,那歌声比世界上所有一切生灵的歌声都更加优美动听。从离开巢窝的那一刻起,她就在寻找荆棘树,直到如愿以偿。然后,她把自己的身体扎进最长、最尖的刺上,在那荒蛮的枝条之间放开歌喉。在最终的奄奄一息里,她超脱了自身的痛苦,那歌声使云雀和夜莺都黯然失色。这就是荆棘鸟的传说,澳大利亚作家考琳.麦卡洛(Colleen McCullough)借用它,用了四年的时间为我们讲述了麦琪一家人的故事——《荆棘鸟》。
There is a bird singing only once in a lifetime, and the song is more beautiful and beautiful than the singing of all creatures in the world. From the moment she left her nest, she was searching for thorn trees until she got it. Then she plunged her body into the longest, prickly thorn, and opened her voice among the wild branches. In the final dying, she detached her own pain, the song eclipses the skylark and nightingale. This is the legend of the Thorn Birds, which was borrowed by Australian writer Colleen McCullough in four years to tell us the story of Maggie’s family, The Thorn Birds.
