内容简介
Atwood, the author of The Handmaid’s Tale, shows
off her token snark in this very short story, which takes the
reader through all of the different ways in which a fictional
couple, John and Mary, could possibly end up. Hint: It’s not so
happy.
阿特伍德，也就是最近大热的《使女的故事》的作者，在这篇短小精悍的小说中尽情炫耀了一把自己标志性的讽刺手法，带领读者体验了一对虚构夫妇约翰和玛丽可能经历的各种不同结局。温馨提示：这些结局并没有那么幸福。
精彩选段
You'll have to face it, the endings are the same
however you slice it. Don't be deluded by any other endings,
they're all fake, either deliberately fake, with malicious intent
to deceive, or just motivated by excessive optimism if not by
downright sentimentality.
你必须面对现实，无论你怎样切分他们的故事，结局都是一样的。不要被其他结局欺骗了，那些都是假的。要么是居心叵测有意欺瞒造假，要么就是乐观过头或太过多情而臆想出来的。
The only authentic ending is the one provided
here:
以下才是唯一真实的结局：
John and Mary die. John and Mary die. John and
Mary die.
约翰和玛丽死了。约翰和玛丽死了。约翰和玛丽死了。
