最精辟纯真的文学评论

1944年，一个儿童读书俱乐部送了一本关于企鹅的书给一个10岁的小女孩，并附了一张调查问卷卡片，以征求她对本书的意见。

她写到：“这本书给了很多关于企鹅的知识，比我想要的还要多。”（This book gives me more information about penguins than I care to have）一位美国外交官休·吉普森称这是他见过的最精辟的文学评论。

Cold Shoulder

In 1944 a children’s book club sent a volume about penguins to a 10-year-old girl, enclosing a card seeking her opinion.

She wrote, “This book gives me more information about penguins than I care to have.”

American diplomat Hugh Gibson called it the finest piece of literary criticism he had ever read.
