有一段描述Sophie代替Howl去向國王說他不接受徵召。小說裡的文字是:
“More about Howl?” Sophie thought desperately. I have to blacken his name! Her mind was such a blank that for a second it actually seemed to her that Howl had no faults at all. How stupid!
“Well, he’s fickle, careless, selfish, and hysterical,” she said.
“Half the time I think he doesn’t care what happens to anyone as long as he’s all right — But then I find out how awfully kind he’s been to someone.
Then I think he’s kind just when it suits him — only then I find out he undercharges poor people.
I don’t know, Your Majesty. He’s a mess.”
不知道為什麼我很喜歡這段對話。間接描述著Sophie微妙的感情。
說起來,女兒這個有時候又乖又貼心地像小天使,有時候又不講理到極點的小霸王,似乎也有讓我重溫那種心情三溫暖的感覺。:P
疊好之後,叫媽咪來看之外,還說:”妳幫我拍照” :P
