【The Poems of Our Climate - I (1942)】

Wallace Stevens (1879—1955)

            Clear water in a brilliant bowl,

            Pink and white carnations. The light

            In the room more like a snowy air,

            Reflecting snow. A newly-fallen snow

            At the end of winter when afternoons return.

            Pink and white carnations – one desires

            So much more than that. The day itself

            Is simplified: a bowl of white,

            Cold, a cold porcelain, low and round,

            With nothing more than the carnations there.

【《我们的气象组诗·之一》(1942)】

异乡人·史蒂文斯(1879生—1955卒)

【红霞译】

                     绚丽的碗中盛着清水，

                     粉妆白晰的康乃馨。光线

                     在房间里近似雪花般的空气，

                     反射着雪。刚下的新雪

                     重又出现在冬末的下午。

                     粉妆白晰的康乃馨——人的欲望

                     远不止于此。时日本身

                     无外乎：一碗白色、

                     清凉、冷脆、扁圆、

                     除了康乃馨别无其它。

【注】继米其林“神赐”三星法国洗衣店(French Laundry)之后，主厨“双·酒窖主”(Thomas Keller)又开设的另一家米其林三星法式餐厅——“本身”，该主厨由此而成为唯一一位因其两家餐厅获得米其林三颗星(最高评价)的美国厨师。

餐厅印象：由著名餐厅设计师“大地·沉默者”(Adam D. Tihany)策画，环境简约低调，深藏于德意志银行购物中心四楼，温馨宁静并可欣赏中央公园和鸽子环岛(Columbus Circle)的景色。
