📖 沒有刻意煽情的香港故‪事‬ 請原諒我要十二點前瞓覺

    • Leisure

我最常聽的podcast之一是Charis Poon和Eugene Kan的「Making It Up」,而剛好看到Charis在instagram上推薦這本書,依稀記得好像說一讀到開首便已經忍不住哭了,因為書中正是她心目中的香港。我當時沒有想太多,只是好奇:因為我沒有遇過標榜寫真實香港、由香港作者寫、而又不是以政治為題材的英文書。OK,let’s give it a go!我也想看看用英文寫可以寫出怎麼樣的香港。我在網上試讀過短短幾頁,我便對這書心生好感,因為她提到一句:「My favorite sign in the city is located at the airport, next to the platform for inter-terminal trains: “Relax, train comes every two minutes.”」係呀,每次我帶着行李巡扶手電梯往下到連接客運大樓機場列車的平台時,看到這個超大海報,心中不禁在笑:「唔知外國人睇到會覺得我哋香港人係咪痴線嘅」好!I like Karen already,等我買咗本書先!
