The writer Malcolm Gladwell is interviewed by Kirsty Young for Desert Island Discs.

Always concise, frequently counterintuitive and unexpectedly beguiling, his work orders the world in a way that gives fresh insights into human behaviour.

He believes that a knowledge of people's backgrounds is necessary to understanding their success; his own achievements may presumably then be attributed, not just to his keen mind and polished prose, but also to his parents - an English mathematician and a Jamaican psychotherapist.

He says, "I am the bird attached to the top of a very large beast, pecking away and eating the gnats.... I am someone who draws inspiration from the brilliance of others and repackages it ... I am a populariser, a simplifier and a synthesizer."




作家马尔科姆-格拉德威尔(Malcolm Gladwell)接受了《荒岛唱片》(Desert Island Discs)的采访。

他的作品总是简明扼要,经常反其道而行之,而且出乎意料地引人入胜,他的作品以一种对人类行为有新的见解的方式来安排世界。

他认为,了解人们的背景对于理解他们的成功是必要的;那么他自己的成就大概可以归功于他敏锐的头脑和精炼的散文,还有他的父母--一位英国数学家和一位牙买加心理治疗师。

他说:"我是附在一只非常大的野兽上面的鸟,在啄食,吃小虫子....。我是一个从他人的辉煌中汲取灵感并重新包装的人......。我是一个普及者,一个简化者和一个综合者"。
