Roald Dahl Publisher Puffin Phau Ntawv Muaj Nws Cov Ncuav Qab Zib Thiab Noj Nws, ib yam nkaus

“Ib tug neeg uas muaj kev xav zoo yuav tsis tuaj yeem ua dab tuag. Koj tuaj yeem muaj lub qhov ntswg thiab lub qhov ncauj nkhaus thiab ob lub puab tsaig thiab cov hniav tawm, tab sis yog tias koj muaj kev xav zoo lawv yuav ci tawm ntawm koj lub ntsej muag zoo li lub hnub ci thiab koj yuav saib zoo nkauj. "

- Cov Twits, Roald Dahl (kuv thov txim vim tsis kho lo lus 'ugly')

Puffin Books, tus tshaj tawm ntawm Roald Dahl cov menyuam yaus cov ntawv tshiab xws li James thiab Giant Txiv Duaj thiab Charlie thiab Chocolate Factory, yog nyob rau ib yam dab tsi. Nws tau txiav txim siab yuav ua li cas coj mus rhaub rau ob sab ntawm kev ua tsov ua rog pop kab lis kev cai kom muag ntau cov ntawv luam ntawm Dahl cov ntawv tseeb li sai tau.

Kev sib cav sib ceg tau npau taws txog seb Dahl (uas tuag hauv 1990) yuav txhawb nqa kev hloov pauv tom qab nws cov dab neeg los ntawm cov neeg nyeem rhiab heev. Cov kws tshaj lij no tau combed los ntawm Welsh tus sau ntau cov dab neeg, los ntawm Dab Neeg rau Cov Twits, thiab tshem tawm cov ntawv xa mus rau txhua yam uas lawv pom tiag tiag dhau ntawm qhov daj ntseg. Cov lus zoo li 'rog' tau raug txiav; 'ugly' tau excised. Ob lub diminutive thiab gargantuan tam sim no tau so yooj yim paub tias lawv yog tam sim no lawv Raws li cov lus piav qhia tsis yog poj niam txiv neej tau hloov pauv Oompa-Loompas rau hauv me me 'neeg' thiab Huab-Txiv neej rau hauv huab 'neeg'. Kuv xyaum ua dab tuag quaj hauv kev xyiv fab ntawm cov kev hloov no, thiab kuv paub tseeb tias cov me nyuam hauv ntiaj teb no hnyav heev, loj, rog sighs ntawm nyem.

Puffin-nrog rau tus sau cov cuab yeej cuab tam, Roald Dahl Story Company, tam sim no muaj kev faib tawm ntawm Netflix- tau koom nrog Inclusive Minds los ua cov dab neeg nkag mus rau cov menyuam yaus niaj hnub nrog cov menyuam yaus niaj hnub no, lossis qee qhov khib nyiab. Tej zaum nws yog los tiv thaiv cov menyuam yaus los ntawm kev sib tw loj heev rau ib leeg, raws li kws ntaus nkauj thiab sau nkauj Billy Bragg optimistically qhia; tej zaum, txawm li cas los xij, nws tsuas yog ua kom cov neeg laus muaj kev zoo siab, txij li tsis muaj kev censorship tau hloov pauv tib neeg qhov xwm txheej, cia ib leeg cov tsiaj qus ntawm cov menyuam yaus. Lossis-thiab qhov no yog qhov uas cov nyiaj twv txiaj yuav tsum tsaws-nws yog qhov kev txiav txim siab ua lag luam uas tsis zoo rau kev coj noj coj ua tam sim no. Tsis txhob ntxub tus neeg ua si, ntxub qhov kev ua si, txoj cai?

Txawm li cas los xij qhov kev rov sau dua ntawm cov lus no feem ntau tsis zoo thiab lom zem yuav ua tiav, nws yog qhov tseeb tshaj plaws "kev censorship tsis txaus ntseeg" raws li tus sau Salman Rushdie yog li eloquently tweeted:

Kev npau taws thiab kev tawm tsam tau dhau mus dhau thiab bipartisan, txawm tias qee qhov kev siv zog los pov qhov no ua ib qho sawv los yam (rau lossis tawm tsam, zoo dua lossis phem dua, sawv los tam sim no yog lub ntsiab lus ntawm kev hais lus niaj hnub). Sab laug thiab sab xis, tib neeg feem ntau pom zoo tias qhov no yog dag (qhov zoo tshaj) lossis kev ua txhaum cai tawm tsam kev kos duab thiab ntawv nyeem thiab kev ywj pheej ntawm kev hais lus (qhov phem tshaj). Ntau tus tau bristled ntawm qhov kev hloov pauv vim tias lawv zoo li patently ludicrous, thiab vim hais tias - tau kawg - Dahl tsis nyob ib puag ncig los pom zoo lossis rau txim. Tseeb, nws tau hloov pauv rau nws tus kheej cov phau ntawv thaum nws tseem muaj sia nyob, tshem tawm qee yam khoom zoo li Oompa Loompa daim ntawv qub li African pygmies. Tab sis muaj qhov dav dav ntawm kev hloov pauv thaum koj tseem muaj sia nyob, ua haujlwm nrog koj tus tshaj tawm thiab cov neeg kho, thiab hloov pauv thaum koj twb snuffed nws.

Tsis yog nws yuav tsum tau hais tias Dahl yog me ntsis vile nyob rau hauv nws tus kheej txoj kev eccentric. Ntau tus kws ua yeeb yam zoo tshaj plaws thiab cov kws sau ntawv thiab cov kws ntaus suab paj nruag yog, tom qab tag nrho. Ib qho kev lees paub antisemite thiab txhua tus neeg tsis txaus ntseeg, zoo li qee tus neeg koom nrog nws txoj haujlwm - nws cov cuab yeej cuab tam, lossis Netflix, lossis Puffin, lossis lub siab xav ntawm cov neeg nyeem rhiab heev -yuav nyiam keeb kwm raug tshem tawm txaus kom peb tsis nco qab cov lus ntxhib. ntug tag nrho.

Tab sis Puffin yog qhov tseeb heev ntse dua li koj xav. Kev muag ntawm Dahl cov phau ntawv tam sim no-tsis tau hloov kho los ntawm cov kev thuam ntawm Dahl zoo siab thaum nws tseem muaj sia nyob-tau nce. 16-phau ntawv teeb tsa ntawm Amazon tau dhau los ua tus muag khoom zoo tshaj plaws. Thaum zaj dab neeg no thawj zaug tawg, cov khoom muag tau muag rau kwv yees li $ 33 ntawm cov khw muag khoom online. Hmoov zoo nrhiav ib qho tsawg dua $ 50 tam sim no (tab sis thov, yog tias koj npau taws nrog Puffin dhau qhov tsis muaj tseeb, yuav cov phau ntawv siv!)

Yog li ntawm no yog tus kws txuj ci dag-er, kev lag luam ntse:

• Kauj ruam 1. Commission tsis sib haum xeeb rov sau dua ntawm tus hlub-tab sis hnub tim-cov menyuam cov phau ntawv. Qhov no ua rau muaj kev tawm tsam thiab ntau tus neeg thiab xov xwm yws yws nrov ntawm qhov phem tshaj qhov no. Cov neeg maj mus yuav cov ntawv qub ntawm phau ntawv. Cov txiaj ntsig!
• Kauj ruam 2. Rov qab kawm. Raws li tau tshaj tawm hnub no, Puffin tab tom taug kev rov qab sau dua rau qee qhov kev kawm thiab tau tshaj tawm tias 'Classic Collection' tshiab ntawm cov ntawv tshiab kuj tseem yuav raug luam tawm.
• Kauj ruam 3. Cov txiaj ntsig.

Classic Collection yuav "tso nrog cov ntawv tshiab Puffin Roald Dahl tso tawm rau cov neeg nyeem ntawv hluas" thaum cov ntawv tshiab, tsis txaus ntseeg "yog tsim los rau cov menyuam yaus uas tuaj yeem tshawb xyuas cov ntsiab lus ntawm nws tus kheej thawj zaug" tus tshaj tawm qhia peb.

Cov neeg txhawb nqa ntawm cov kev hloov pauv no - leej twg tuaj yeem piav qhia tau zoo tshaj plaws raws li cov neeg tawm tsam tawm tsam cov kev tawm tsam ntawm lwm cov kev tawm tsam - yuav yuav cov kev hloov pauv, zoo li yuav muaj ntau tus neeg uas tsis paub txog dab tsi tau tshwm sim thiab zoo siab tsis paub txog qhov kev sib cav. Cov neeg thuam ntawm cov kev hloov pauv, cov neeg sau, thiab lwm tus yuav yuav Classic Collection uas, kuv xav tias, yuav nrov dua li cov ntawv kho dua tshiab. (Ib qho piv txwv ntawm qhov kuv tau nyeem ua ntej yog qhov no zoo ib yam li Coke thiab Tshiab Coke thiab peb txhua tus paub tias qhov ntawd tau ua li cas).

Lub ntsiab lus yog, ntau thiab ntau cov ntawv luam yuav raug muag. Puffin yuav luag txhua txoj hauv kev mus rau lub txhab nyiaj thaum curmudgeonly thuam zoo li koj tus neeg hais lus txo hwj chim co lawv lub nrig indignantly. Cov neeg siv khoom yuav muaj xaiv—qhov loj tshaj ntawm txhua yam khoom siv niaj hnub no!—thiab cov uas yooj yim ua txhaum yuav pom kev pab; qhov kev npau taws- dhau-qhov-yooj yim-ua txhaum yuav tuaj yeem tau txais qhov chaw nkaum hauv qhov sov sov puag ntawm me me yeej.

Cov me nyuam, tau kawg, tseem yuav ua phem thiab phem rau ib leeg tsis hais ntawm cov ntawv twg lawv nyeem, txawm hais tias feem ntau yuav tsis nyeem ib yam, thiab lawv yuav tsis saib qhov hloov pauv Netflix churns tawm, lossis yuav ua li ntawd tsuas yog ib nrab-heartedly thaum zaum hauv lawv lub xov tooj saib TikToks. txog kev hloov pauv thiab dab dej ntxiv thiab txuas ntxiv mus rau hauv lawv qhov kev tshuaj ntsuam-malaise, ib tiam neeg tau tsa tsis yog ntawm cov phau ntawv tawm tsam lossis tawv nqaij hauv caug tab sis ntawm qhov kawg kev ua yeeb yam ntawm vapid, ib nrab-ci cov ntsiab lus churned los ntawm vapid ib nrab-ci. txheej cov neeg tsim txhua yam uas tsis muaj kev lees paub, siv thiab siv thiab siv. Amen.

Xa peb tawm, Oompa Loompas:

“Puas yog nws tib leeg ua txhaum? Txawm hais tias nws tau lwj, thiab txaus ntshai heev, Ib tug ntxhais tsis tuaj yeem lwj nws tus kheej, koj paub. Leej twg ua phem rau nws, ces? Ah, leej twg tiag? Leej twg pandered rau nws txhua qhov kev xav tau? Leej twg tig nws mus rau hauv ib tug neeg zoo li no? Leej twg yog tus ua txhaum? Leej twg ua li ntawd? Alas! Koj tsis tas yuav saib kom deb li deb kom paub seb cov neeg txhaum no yog leej twg. Lawv yog (thiab qhov no tu siab heev) Nws niam nws txiv, niam thiab txiv. Thiab yog li ntawd peb zoo siab tias lawv tau poob rau hauv lub thoob khib nyiab ib yam nkaus. "
