We Go to the Park

內容簡介

內容簡介 有人說我們來自星星，有人說我們是星塵組成的，有人說我們是從不知名的地方流轉來到這個世界上。我們不知道。所以，我們去公園。公園是城市的森林，它是另一個國度。在公園裡，什麼事都會發生。有時候，發生了太多事情，讓整個世界都變得不一樣了。有時候，卻什麼事也沒有發生。但沒關係，我們就是想去公園。---------------------------------------------------------公園對於孩子來說總有莫大的吸引力，不知道什麼理由，但孩子就是想去公園。公園裡有許多的樹，它們已經站在那裡好幾千年了，就跟樹一樣，我們到了公園也不想離開。我們不想回到原來的地方，每一樣東西都好大，都沒有我們的空間了。當我們坐在巨大的花瓣底下時，雨打不到我們。在公園裡，總有無限可能。我們讓風帶我們去它想去的地方，我們發現了以前沒有人發現的事情。宇宙沒有規則，想像力超越了一切，什麼事情都可能發生……----以上書介取自【阿布拉出版《我們去公園》】We Go to the Park is a beautiful, lyrical meditation on going to the park to play—which extends into a reflection on life itself—from Booker Prize-longlisted author Sara Stridsberg, and the inimitable, award-winning illustrator Beatrice Alemagna!Translated from Swedish by B.J. WoodsteinThe park beckons us to leave our daily routines behind and enter its zone of endless possibility. In the park, the usual rules don’t apply. In the park, what matters most is the moment, and losing track of time to the timelessness of imagination, invention, observation, and chance. In the park, there are risks, of course, but also the deepest rewards, to be found in the freedom experienced through play that is both embodied and participatory. It is not the lone “I,” but the “we” that goes to the park, where chance encounters might suddenly become moments of deep connection—however fleeting—with others, nature, and ourselves.Originally published in Sweden, this first English–language edition printed in Italy on thick cream paper offers an immersive experience of transformation, longing, and transcendence to readers of all ages, while reminding adult readers in particular of the everyday miracle contained in encountering another consciousness.
