I got to know people by the flowers they planted that I had to remember not to cut down，by the things they lost in the grass or struck in the ground on purpose. I reached the point with most of them when I knew in advance what complaint was about to be spoken，which particular request was most important. And I learned something about the measure of my neighbors by their preferred method of payment：by the job，by the monthor not at all. Mr. Ballou fell into the last category，and he always had a reason why. On one day，he had no change for a fifty，on another he was flat out of checks，on another，he was simply out when I knocked on his door. Still，except for the money apart，he was a nice enough guy，always waving or tipping his hat when hed see me from a distance. I figured him for a thin retirement check，maybe a workrelayed injury that kept him from doing his own yard work. Sure，I kept track of the total，but I didnt worry about the amount too much. Grass was grass，and the little that Mr. Ballous property comprised didnt take long to trim(修剪)Then，one late afternoon in midJuly，the hottest time of the year，I was walking by his house and he opened the door，mentioned me to come inside. The hall was cool，shaded，and it took my eyes a minute to adjust to the dim light. “I owe you，”Mr Ballou，“but. . . ”I thought Id save him the trouble of thinking of a new excuse. “No problem. Dont worry about it. ”“The bank made a mistake in my account，”he continued，ignoring my words. “It will be cleared up in a day or two. But in the meantime I thought perhaps you could choose one or two volumes for a down payment. ”He gestured toward the walls and I saw that books were stacked(堆放)everywhere. It was like a library，except with no order to the arrangement. “Take your time，”Mr. Ballou encouraged. “Read，borrow，keep. Find something you like. What do you read？”“I dont know. ”And I didnt. I generally read what was in front of me，what I could get from the paperback stack at the drugstore，what I found at the library，magazines，the back of cereal boxes，comics. The idea of consciously seeking out a special title was new to me，but，I realized，not without appealso I started to look through the piles of books. “You actually read all of these？”“This isnt much，”Mr. Ballou said. “This is nothing just what Ive kept，the ones worth looking at a second time. ”“Pick for me，then. ”He raised his eyebrows，cocked his head，and regarded me as though measuring me for a suit. After a moment，he nodded，searched through a stack，and handed me a dark red hardbound book，fairly thick. “The Last of the Just，”I read. “By Andre SchwarzBart. Whats it about？”“You tell me，”he said. “Next week. ”I started after supper，sitting outdoors on an uncomfortable kitchen chair. Within a few pages，the yard，the summer，disappeared，and I was plunged into the aching tragedy of the Holocaust，the extraordinary clash of good，represented by one decent man，and evil. Translated from French，the language was elegant，simple，impossible to resist. When the evening light finally failed I moved inside，read all through the night. To this day，thirty years later，I vividly remember the experience. It was my first voluntary encounter with world literature，and I was stunned(震惊)by the concentrated power a novel could contain. I lacked the vocabulary，however，to tr
