慢书

1

在演讲开始，我愿意先讲一个事情，如果说去年有什么让我印象深刻，就是极具讽刺意味的出版一本号召讲将速度慢下来的书你却不得不超快速的四处推销它。

What I 'd like to start off with is an observation , which is that if I 've learned anything over the last year , it 's that the supreme1 irony2 of publishing a book about slowness is that you have to go around promoting it really fast .

我发现自《慢活》一书出版以来在所有发生的事情中，最令人振奋的就是人们对这本书的反应。

Now , one of the things that I found most uplifting about all of this stuff that 's happened around the book since it came out , is the reaction to it .
