双语·《刀锋》 第六章 一

CHAPTER SIX 1
第六章 一

I feel it right to warn the reader that he can very well skip this chapter without losing the thread of such story as I have to tell, since for the most part it is nothing more than the account of a conversation that I had with Larry. I should add, however, that except for this conversation I should perhaps not have thought it worth while to write this book.
在此有必要敬告读者，完全可以跳过这一章，并不影响读者把握本书所叙述的故事脉络，因为这一章的大部分文字记载的基本上都是我和拉里的一次谈话。不过话又说回来，如果没有这次谈话，我觉得写这本书也就没有什么价值了。
