The rat race of Wall Street is turned on its head when Bartleby the copier decides that he simply "would prefer not to" in this absorbing early modernist tale.
挺卡夫卡的一个故事: inexplicably strange and you don’t know what to make of it. 但平静诡谲中有力量,多少时候我们该说却不说那句 I would prefer not to. 就是有点太wordy;十九世纪美国人废话真不少(也针对emerson)。
