在中央电视台《岩松看美国》的专题片中,第一次看到这座建筑。那是波士顿一处迷人的所在。铁艺的雕花座椅,优雅地散落在庭院内长长的回廊中。角落里一些读书的人,被天井泻下的阳光温暖着。知道这一期节目是在女儿协助下拍摄的,那时候她已经供职于美国PBS电视台。于是疑惑,为什么我在波士顿住了那么久,却从不曾走进这宁静而又美丽的花园。 The first time I saw this building on the feature film CCTV “Iwatani to see the United States.” That’s a charming place in Boston. Iron carved seating, elegantly scattered in the courtyard in the long corridor. Some of the people in the corner reading books were warmed by the sunshine from the patio. I know this one was filmed with the help of her daughter, who had worked for PBS in the United States at that time. So puzzled why I lived in Boston for so long, but never walked into this quiet and beautiful garden.
