The “joke” published in 1967 brought Milan-Kundera a huge reputation worldwide, but less than a year after the publication of this book, the Soviet Union occupied Czechoslovakia, which was not yet divided at the time, and this book Because of the irony and sharp content of the book, it can even be said to be a targeted ridicule. It is listed as a /banned book. In the entire Eastern European region, all libraries and bookstores disappear in an instant. Even Kundera himself has been The faculty of the Film Academy was dismissed, and the publication of any works was prohibited.

Back then, the book almost disappeared in the Eastern European world. The only remaining areas are Poland and Yugoslavia. With the passage of time, the book has now seen the light again and has been translated into various editions all over the world, but it was the first to be printed. The version has almost disappeared.

When "Joke" first came out, it was very popular. In a short period of time, three consecutive editions were printed, reaching hundreds of thousands of copies, but the precious first, second and third editions have all become history. The testimony in the torrent, turned into ashes, is only treasured in the hands of a few true lovers.

The girl in front of me mentioned that she was found in a second-hand bookstore in Cetinje. Cetinje was the capital of the ancient kingdom of Montenegro and is now the cultural center. Montenegro was only once again a referendum/voted/independent/independent in 2006. , Which belonged to Yugoslavia for half a century before, which also made the provenance of the books find the source.

As she said, for ordinary people, this is a book that is so tattered that there is no value at all, and it is still a small Polish language, even if it is tried to read it, it is very difficult; but for true lovers and collectors , This is a historical witness worthy of collection.

"'Sword for hero, red powder for beautiful woman'." Lan Li repeated it in Chinese, and cast her gaze at the girl again. After all, she did not refuse: Matthew would like it very much. Since he decided to accept it, Lan Li did not continue her mother-in-law, and briskly said, "I must admit, I like this gift very, very much. Why not, we exchange a gift, you can make a request, within my abilities. ."

To be honest, Lan Li was a little interested instead. What kind of gift would she ask for as a reward for her "joking" as a gift? Or simply refuse?

The girl standing in front of Lan Li thought about it seriously and seemed to be searching her stomach. Just when Lan Li was a little disappointed, she said, "Why don't you give me a book as a gift, and then attach your signature." And feelings, then we can be regarded as exchanging our thoughts on books."

Surprise!

Even in the context of the popularity of the Jinyuan culture in Asia and even the world, there are still a small group of Don Quixotes on this land, insisting on their inner persistence in art and the fanaticism of their dreams, maybe they will be excluded Outside the mainstream, but they still cling to a small piece of their own paradise.

Think about it seriously, he is the same, isn't he? From Chu Jiashu to Lanli, he has never changed.

Thinking of this, Lan Li's mood became happy, and even his tired and heavy body became a little lighter, "That's it."

Lan Li didn't stay any longer, turned around and continued to move forward, chasing them towards Annie, Nolan and others.

The girl stayed where she was, and other fans chased after him-Roy walked forward guarding Renly, while Nathan stayed and asked the girl's mailing address.

About five weeks later, when the girl almost thought that Lan Li was about to forget, a parcel wrapped in kraft paper appeared in her mailbox. From the address, it was a chic and light handwriting. She could recognize Lan Li's handwriting at a glance. After carefully unpacking the package, she saw her gift:

A neatly kept book is not brand new, but it will not be worn out. It can be seen that the owner has spent a lot of thought and careful storage, but the traces of frequent flipping are still revealed in the corners of the book, and it seems that it is still OK. Feel the temperature left by the owner's careful reading.

This is a "colon who no one writes to him" from García-Marquez.

As the author of "One Hundred Years of Solitude", Marquez, who won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1982, is naturally famous and needless to say.

But only true literary lovers know that Marquez and Kundera are actually regarded as important turning points in South American and Eastern European literature, respectively. When their works entered Asia, many literary researchers put both of them. Putting it all together, choosing Marquez as Kundera's return gift is obviously Renly's thoughtful idea.

What’s more interesting is that among Marquez’s many works, the “colon who no one writes to him” created in his early years is very, very unobtrusive, and even many literary researchers believe that this work is Mark One of Sentimental attempts-far from the later writing techniques, even the length is very short, but in fact, this is Marquez's personal favorite work.

Turning over the title page of the book, there is a page of letterhead in it, and the above simply writes:

"Lovely Ludwig,

I must admit that I always refused to read "One Hundred Years of Solitude" until I found this Spanish book in Shakespeare's bookstore in Paris. I captured Marquez’s pessimism from it, but that kind of compassionate emotion was fragile. The beauty of this also prompted me to open up the opportunity of "a hundred years of loneliness".

Just like the "unbearable lightness of life", I always love Kundera's "joke" more. I'm still not sure, whether human beings created the era, or the era created people, maybe we can find the answer, maybe, we need to find ourselves all our lives.

your,

Colonel. "

Ludwick is the protagonist of "Joke", and the colonel is the protagonist of "The Colonel Who Nobody Writes to Him".

Although there is no "Lan Li-Hall" name in the full text, she knows that this is a letter from Lan Li, a letter with personal attributes.

It is worth mentioning that this little story has never been published on any platform, and the girl has never mentioned her name. She seems to be a legendary symbol.

The other fans who witnessed the whole process at the airport that day, occasionally mentioned this matter in the chat, but they can only use "she" to refer to them, discussing and discussing, but still can't find the person involved. As for the authenticity of the matter, it has also been questioned, and in the end it has become a legend that cannot be verified. It is only an anecdote as a "legend" in word of mouth. Talking and laughing is all.

Only the girl’s friends and the little Don Quixote circle have heard of this story, and have witnessed the book and the handwritten letter with their own eyes. They knew exactly what kind of actor Lan Li was, and what kind of fans Don Quixote were, that was enough.

These are all things to say, and the line of sight returned to the airport.

Lan Li accepted the gift, which immediately made the other fans excited. Before, Lan Li seemed to be inadequate, and they could not open the window no matter how hard they tried, but now they see that Lan Li is willing to accept the gift. Does it mean that their gifts can also be passed on?

Then, the turbulent wave became more and more fierce, and they even forcibly stuffed gifts into Lan Li's hands, hoping that Lan Li would accept it.

When Nathan left, Roy was a bit hard-he didn't expect that he would need security guards to accompany him inside the airport, so the relevant staff were not in place yet. In the end, it was Annie and Nolan's fellow staff to help. , This allowed Lan Li to get out of the predicament.

Fortunately, the distance from the VIP room to the exit was closer than expected.

After going back and forth, Lanly and his party were already close to the airport arrival hall. The security staff who greeted them quickly were finally able to ease their urgent needs. With their assistance, the fans who were following them were finally separated. Come - but still haven't left completely, standing not far away, watching eagerly and enthusiastically at every move of Lan Li and others.

The short distance of less than 300 meters caused Lan Li’s back to see a little sweat, and the body was still slightly unwell, especially just in the crowds of fans, and the sultry environment exposed the body’s weakness. Come out, the physical exertion is serious.

Now Lan Li can feel the skin on his arm slightly hot, the cold air of the magic city in the middle of June night is with slimy moisture, the whole body has become lazy and soft, and all the scenery and characters are in the hazy night. The inside is blurred into a ball~www.novelhall.com~ The body's sense of touch is dull and unable to capture any information, and the footsteps are light and heavy, deep and shallow, stepping on the cotton, even knowing that all this is an illusion, but the stomach still can't help but roll stand up.

The low-grade fever should not be serious. The main reason is that tiredness and sleepiness make the body extremely heavy. Coupled with the bustling follower figure, the muscles become more tense. A little bit of feeling is gradually enlarged to the extreme, and the control is gradually gradually reduced. I slipped from my fingertips, and even though I tried to close my palms, I only caught a sense of emptiness, and the whole person swayed with the wind again, and the instability that my feet could not touch the ground was lingering.

Adjust breathing. Adjust breathing.

Lan Li calmly controlled the muscles of his body, firmly controlled the state of appearance, calmly adjusted his breathing to calm the burning sensation and emptiness, although the night was still long, and there was a continuation in front of him. An important scene is waiting for him to deal with, but he can stick to it. This is not difficult! This shouldn't be difficult!

Adjust your breathing again.

Lan Li's mood and state regained his footing in the long breath, everything was fine except for the hot skin.
