诺拉·罗伯兹没有赢得诺贝尔文学奖,但若诺贝尔文学奖增设文学创收奖,那么她必定为首选,因为她是世界上惟一通过创作而获得如此高收益的人。这位54岁的女小说家,在过去的20年中,创作并出版了790万字,157本书,其中116本被评为畅销书。2003年,她的小说卖掉5000万册,2004年的销售业绩不比2003年逊色。谈及创作,诺拉用一种爱斯基摩人的口吻说:“我不相信灵感,我是从修女那儿接受的教育,她们只是比世界上任何人都更加坚韧”。
Nora Roberts did not win the Nobel Prize for literature, but if the Nobel Prize for Literature is to add literary prize-making, she must be the first choice because she is the only one in the world who has achieved such a high return by writing. The 54-year-old female novelist has created and published 7,900,000 words and 157 books in the past 20 years, of which 116 were rated bestsellers. In 2003, her novel sold 50 million copies of 2004 sales performance of less than 2003. Speaking of creation, Nora said in an Eskimos tone: “I do not believe in inspiration. I am educated from the nuns who are tougher than anybody else in the world.”
