주립 도서관의 헌 책방(second-hand bookstore)에서 하드커버로 구매한 스티븐 킹의 'The Wind Through the Keyhole'(열쇠 구멍을 통해 불어오는 바람)은 'The Dark Tower' 시리즈에 속한 공상과학 호러 소설로, 이야기 속의 이야기, 그리고 그 안에 담긴 또 하나의 옛날 이야기를 담고 있다. 현존하는 최고의 소설가들 중 한 명인 스티븐 킹의 작품들은 앞으로 클래식으로 인정받을 것 같아, 지금부터라도 그의 책들은 수집해 두면 좋을 것 같다.

 

Time is a keyhole, he thought as he looked up at the stars. Yes, I think so. We sometimes bend and peer through it. And the wind we feel on our cheeks when we do- the wind that blows through the keyhole- is the breath of all the living universe.

"시간은 열쇠 구멍이다, 그는 별들을 바라보며 생각했다. 그래, 나도 그렇게 생각해. 우리는 때때로 몸을 구부리고 열쇠 구멍을 통해 엿본다. 그럴 때 볼을 스치는 바람 - 열쇠 구멍을 통해 불어오는 바람 - 그 바람은 살아있는 모든 우주의 숨결이다." (마이크로 소프트의 Copilot 을 이용하여 번역에 도움을 받은 후 제가 수정했어요)
