作家薛伍德．安德生 (Sherwood Anderson) 于1876年9月13日出生

你有没有写过有关自己家乡的故事？或许你会认为那种题材实在是太无聊了。如果是这样，你应该看一下美国作家薛伍德．安德生的作品。安德于1876年9月13日出生于俄亥俄州的坎登 (Camden) ，他以自己家乡为题材所写的短篇小说，是他最广为人知的作品。他在书中描述「令人沉思不已的中西部故事」，这些故事显示「作者对于平凡人物深刻的描写与怜悯。」作为一个马具制造者与临时油漆工的第三个小孩，安德生有说故事的天分。

Described as "brooding Midwest tales," they reveal "their author's sympathetic insight into the thwarted lives of ordinary people." This third child of a harness maker and sometime house painter had a fondness for storytelling.
