如同標題所示,在閱讀正文便有一股膈應感迎面襲來,不確定是因為本書採用詩與散文交織的寫作手法,亦或者是翻譯上產生的差距(翻譯腔及取意),下面貼上一段原文與翻譯的內容(皆取自公開試閱內容),請各位朋友務必試閱完再行決定是否購買。
————————————
在島上賭博了二十年後,爸輸掉了所有的黃金,還一次一次又一次想再贏回來。他們認識的時候,媽已經生過三個孩子,而且有一位每週都會變成亮乳白色雨水回來找她的亡夫。當地的男人說她腰部以下已經是廢墟了,不過腰部以上還可以。她穿著一件粗厚的裙子,包得活像個尼姑。媽把三個女兒捐給了她的父母,後來又跟爸生了兩個。

After twenty years of gambling on the island, Ba lost all the gold and tried to win it back and back and back again. When they met, Ma already had three children and one dead husband who returned weekly in the form of milk-bright rain. The local men said she was ruined from the waist down but still eligible from the waist up. She wore a heavy skirt that tarped her like a nun. Ma donated her three daughters to her parents and birthed two new ones with Ba.
