三角帽
《三角帽》取材于一个西班牙古老的歌谣体民间故事,讲述了一个总督及其夫人与一对磨坊主夫妻之间的纠葛。《三角帽》在文学史上较长的短篇小说中的地位不可动摇,它是一部强有力的客观的作品,没有自我意识的阴影笼罩,简而言之,它是一则被娓娓道来的好故事,值得称赞。除了它本身纯粹的美学价值,这本书还是一部有助于学习西班牙传统风俗历史的珍贵文献。这部作品曾多次被译成其他语言并至少四次被改写为喜歌剧搬上舞台。最近一次是由二十世纪西班牙音乐大师法雅斯改编而成的同名芭蕾舞剧。Odd & True
Trudchen grew up hearing Odette's stories of their monster-slaying mother and a magician's curse. But now that Tru's older, she's starting to wonder if her older sister's tales were just comforting lies, especially because there's nothing fantastic about her own life—permanently disabled and in constant pain from childhood polio. In 1909, after a two-year absence, Od reappears with a suitcase supposedly full of weapons and a promise to rescue Tru from the monsters on their way to attack her. But it's Od who seems haunted by something. And when the sisters' search for their mother leads them to a face-off with the Leeds Devil, a nightmarish beast that's wreaking havoc in the Mid-Atlantic states, Tru discovers the peculiar possibility that she and her sister—despite their dark pasts and ordinary appearances—might, indeed, have magic after all.物种:越来越多的物种
在东部非洲肯尼亚的东部,生长着一种奇特的水果,果实呈扁圆形。奇特的是果子前面是银白色,后面是赤黄色。果实上有些突出的果疤,巧似人脸上的眼、鼻、眉,而且分布的也如人的五官一样匀称。因此整个果实看起来仿佛是一张小孩的脸。人们称它为“人面果”。人面果是一种叫“婆其格利德树”的果实。这种树每年3月开花,5月结出拳头大的果实。每当收获季节,那压满枝头的累累果实犹如枝叶扶疏间的一张张小脸,特别惹人喜爱。
