Air Mail (Mandarin Edition)

By Tomas Tranströmer

《航空信》

Air Mail is a comic anthology of letters that demonstrates how one man bamboozled and exasperated over forty international airlines, from British Airways to Air Malta. It tackles everything from the common bugbears of excess baggage charges and duplicitous exchange rates to the more surreal predicament of how to fly an elephant back from India. 1963

年，特朗斯特罗默注意到诗人詹姆斯·赖特在罗伯特·布莱创办的《六十年代》杂志上发表的几首诗作，并有意翻译。他给赖特的去信四个月后才得到一个客套而冷淡的答复，反而是布莱给了他热情的回应，两人的通信从此开始。从一开始的客套拘礼到后来的真诚亲密，两人通信近三十年，交流诗歌创作与翻译之道，更彼此传递友谊，在地球的两端为彼此的文学世界开辟天地。

Tomas Tranströmer

Tomas Tranströmer (1933-2015) received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 2011. His books of poetry, which have been translated into sixty languages, include The Deleted World and The Half-Finished Heaven, and he received numerous international honors during his lifetime. Tranströmer, a trained Swedish psychologist, worked for years in state institutions with juveniles and the disabled, and his work was often praised for the inventive ways in which it examined the mind. When he was awarded the Nobel Prize, the Swedish Academy stated that "through his condensed, translucent images, he gave us fresh access to reality."
