Sólo puedo decir que aquel verano, corrigiendo La historia del condado de Mohawk, descubrí el placer de examinar una frase opaca hasta que adquiría algo parecido a un significado (¡esto es lo que el muy hijo de puta quería decir!), agilizando (a veces demasiado, me temo) aquello que había quedado atrapado en la retorcida sintaxis, dando energía y ritmo a frases de lenguaje plomizo que quedaban estancadas como un carburador.
I can only say that I discovered that summer in working over—and brother did I ever work it over—The History of Mohawk County, the joy of probing the opaque sentence until it surrendered something akin to meaning (this is what the son of a bitch meant!), making flexible (sometimes loosey-goosey, I fear) that which had been soldered stiff in a grimace of contorted syntax, giving energy and momentum to sentences stalled and flooded, like a carburetor, by leaden words.
