4.翻过一本讨论爵士的畅销书，中文译名记得是 但是，很美。里头一段写得相当浪漫。
—The blues? Man, that’s a big question. The blues is a lot of things, a feeling . . .
—What kind of feeling?
—Well, it’s . . . Maybe it’s a guy alone, locked up some place ’cause he got in some trouble that wasn’t his fault. And he’s thinking of his girl and how he hasn’t heard from her for a long time. And maybe it’s visiting day and all the other cats are down there seeing their wives and their girls. And he stays in his cell, thinking about her. Wanting her and knowing he’s lost her, hardly able to remember her properly because for a long time all he’s seen are the girls pinned on the wall, not like real women at all.
Wishing there was somebody waiting for him, thinking how his life is passing by and how he’s messed everything up. Wishing he could change everything, knowing he can’t . . .That’s the blues.

—All that hurt and pain, she said at last. But . . . but . . .
—But what?
—But . . . beautiful. Like kissed tears, she said, smiling at how silly that sounded.
