One front many people didn’t take too seriously, however, was renewable energy. Sure, cap-and-trade might make more room for wind and the sun, but how important could such sources really end up being? And I have to admit that I shared that skepticism. If truth be told, I thought of the idea that wind and sun could be major players as hippie-dippy wishful thinking.
然而,許多人都沒有太把可再生能源當回事。沒錯,碳排放限額交易制度為風電及太陽能發電提供了更大的發展空間,但這些資源說到底會有多重要?我不得不承認本人也曾持懷疑態度。要說實話,我認為風電與太陽能發電成為主角的想法是嬉皮士昏頭昏腦的一廂情願。

「《被偷換的孩子》講述的是日本戰敗後的故事:就在日本與美國佔領當局簽訂的媾和條約將要生效之際,一夥打著愛國旗號的國家主義分子為了發動象徵性抵抗,以英俊美少年吾良的肉體為誘餌,將美軍軍官誘至山中殺害,與此同時,英俊少年吾良的善良和純真也一同毀掉了。據日本文學專家加注在原著封面題名旁的片假名表明,《被偷換的孩子》書名源自於英語辭彙changeling,一個在歐洲各國流傳甚廣的民間故事,說的是每當美麗的嬰兒出生後,侏儒小鬼戈布林便常常會用自己醜陋的孩子偷偷換走那美麗的嬰兒。這個被留下來的醜孩子,就是changeling了。

而據日本文學翻譯家許金龍介紹,大江先生在這裏引用的 changeling,典出於美國著名兒童文學作家、漫畫家莫里斯•森達克(Maurice Sendak)根據這個民間故事創作的繪本《外面那邊》(Outside Over There (Caldecott Collection) by Maurice Sendak 1981):為了安撫哭鬧不已的嬰兒,美麗而率真的少女愛達用圓號對窗外吹奏起悅耳的曲子,搖籃中的小妹妹停止哭鬧並聽得入迷,愛達本人也沉醉於吹奏而忘了照看妹妹。此時,幾個身披斗篷的侏儒小鬼戈布林,偷走了這個嬰兒,留下一具冰雕而成的戈布林嬰孩。


大江健三郎作品的強烈現實性在這部小說中同樣得到了體現,許金龍說,不妨將作品中的古義人看做作者本人,而那被偷換的孩子看做是他的妻兄、那個因身陷媒體炒作的緋聞而跳樓自殺的電影導演伊丹十三。伊丹十三曾導演過一部辛辣嘲諷黑社會的電影《民暴之女》並獲得巨大成功,他也曾因這部電影開罪了黑社會,被暴力團的歹徒用利刃兇殘地刺傷面部和頸部,而最後的決絕則是現實世界裏的戈布林們所製造的災難。


誰是 changeling?誰又是戈布林?大江健三郎在這篇小說中表達了對日本社會的憂慮:越來越多的人內心的公正和良知正在被戈布林們盜走;一些年輕人內心的純真和美好正在被戈布林們盜走;同時,一些政客內心的道德和良知也正在被戈布林們盜走。」

Changeling is a 2008 American drama film directed by Clint Eastwood and written by J. Michael Straczynski. Based on real-life events in 1928 Los Angeles, the film stars Angelina Jolie as a woman who is reunited with her missing son—only to realize he is an impostor. She confronts the city authorities, who vilify her as an unfit mother and brand her delusional. The dramatized incident was connected to the "Wineville Chicken Coop" kidnapping and murder case. Changeling explores female disempowerment, political corruption, child endangerment, and the repercussions of violence. Ron Howard intended to direct, but scheduling conflicts led to his replacement by Eastwood. Howard and his Imagine Entertainment partner Brian Grazer produced Changeling alongside Malpaso Productions' Robert Lorenz and Eastwood. Universal Pictures financed and distributed the film.

On a white background , the top left of the poster is dominated by a woman's head looking down on a much smaller silhouette of a child in the bottom right corner. The woman is pale with prominent red lips and is wearing a brown cloche hat. Across the top of the poster are the names "Angelina Jolie" and "John Malkovich" in uppercase white. Adjacent to the child is the title, "Changeling" in uppercase black. Above are the words, "A true story" in uppercase red. Underneath is the tagline, in uppercase black: "To find her son, she did what no-one else dared."
