Clive 不喜欢回答“你是做什么的?”这个问题,因为在这个问题背后,往往藏着对一个人价值的判断。他有时用玩笑来回答,有时只说:“As little harm as possible.”——尽可能少造成伤害。
《Clive》写的是一个人如何用幽默拒绝被定义:当别人急着知道你的职业、身份和社会位置,他只想轻轻地说一句,也许什么都不做,也是一种生活。
Clive does not like the question, “What do you do?”, because behind it often comes a judgement about what a person is worth. Sometimes he answers with a joke. Sometimes he simply says, “As little harm as possible.”
“Clive” is about using humour to refuse a definition. When people want to know your job, your status, your place in the world, Clive gently asks another question: perhaps doing very little can also be a way of living.
