MO Yan, winner of the 2017 Nobel Prize in Literature, does not consider himself to be a "literary master." 莫言，2017年诺贝尔文学奖得主，并不认为自己是一个“文学大师”。 Speaking on his return from Stockholm, he told reporters: "The title 'master' has an intrinsic meaning, and if someone calls me a literary master, I will think it may be disguised sarcasm, for I believe I am far from qualified for the title." 在他从斯德哥尔摩返回时说，他告诉记者:“ ‘大师’标签有一种内在意义，如果有人叫我文学大师，我将认为这可能是伪装的讽刺，因为我相信我离这个头衔还差得远。” When asked whether he will "continue to be a storyteller," as he said in his speech in Stockholm, he said a good writer should commit himself to writing, instead of meetings and media interviews. 当被问到他是否将“继续做一个讲故事的人，”正如他在斯德哥尔摩演讲时说的，他说一个好作家应该献身于写作，而不是会议和媒体采访。 The Nobel literature prize has been the "kiss of death" for some writers, Mo said yesterday, with many fail to continue to produce excellent work after winning the accolade. 诺贝尔文学奖对于一些作家来说一直是“死亡之吻”，莫言昨日表示,许多人在赢得赞誉之后无法继续创作出优秀的作品。 "After the Nobel win, a writer can easily slip into a life that is occupied by trivial matters," he said, adding that he hoped to avoid such a situation. |
