转发一个鲁汶书展的实地考察贴：（原帖发于2013-02-18，鲁汶心情， by seesky）

中午在家大扫除，突然接到朋友电话，问是否去鲁汶书展一看。前几天在研究所也曾看到小广告，当时觉得在鲁汶郊外，又想可能多为荷语书籍，故未留意。想起以往在杭州常去浙图淘旧书，在鲁汶更不应错过，故匆匆前往。书展在郊外的Brabantlaan，即布拉班特街。布拉班特大公国是12世纪至18世纪统治低地国家的政权，鲁汶曾是该公爵领地内重要的商贸中心，街道名亦有留痕。1995年，仍然是语言和政治争端的问题，原来的布拉班特省一分为二，北部是佛拉芒布拉班特，南部则是瓦隆布拉班特，而鲁汶成了北布拉班特的省会。

630公交车行驶了20分钟，终于到了布拉班特公爵灵魂不散之地。满车的人居然都是去书市的。再看停车场里， 停着数百辆私家车。市场则是很大的L形，走进去一看两个大屋子，如同两个大足球场，人群则摩肩接踵。入口处有推车和篮筐，宛如超市。我想无非是简单一逛，故未提篮。朋友说，万一走散，等会电话联系。我还不以为然，怎么可能走散呢。等我稍稍一逛，拿了三五本在手中，就知道原先判断有误，复又到门边来取篮筐。

书按主题分类，一屋中有孩童书，旅游书，历史类、人物传记类、幽默读物、动植物等，另一屋则为烹调、文学，小说、惊悚书等尤其多。我在历史类驻足甚久，有讲西方基督教历史的、西方艺术史、英国史、一战二战纪实等、亦有古罗马的介绍，且纸张精美、图片靓丽，令人爱不释手。且多数书为两三欧，多则五六欧，十欧则为巨著。文学中不乏《狄更斯全集》、《菲茨杰拉德全集》等等，书廉且厚，我如今已甚少读小说，故虽留恋，但一本未取。唯有一《格林童话》，只需两欧，因想起有一次，小比说起格林童话里扔一种面包屑认路的故事，面包屑的英文词，我茫然不知，故想买一本稍作了解。偶有见谈中国语言文化和社会的英文书籍，则为我所钟爱，还发现有苏童和莫言小说的英译本，故也买下。因为飞机限重的缘故，不能多买，最后不得不放回原处多本。最后拣点自己所获，共买书11本，花钱48欧，涉及西方历史、艺术、文化、哲学、文学书籍7本，涉及中国文字、文学书籍4本。此刻唯一头痛的是，行李箱里能否放下？

西人爱读书，由此见一斑（西方地铁站里常见人捧着厚待千夜的书在读，千万别认为他是装模做样，见他们快下车时总是书签一插，的确在挤时间读书呢。）。书展里，有人推着超市那种车，居然装了满满一车！就像是在超市里买了一车的萝卜青菜牛肉猪肉奶酪啤酒巧克力一样，记得书展有一种书的主题写着：brain food，多为自然科学之书，许是费脑之故，故得名。我们亦常说，书乃精神食粮。黄山谷有一句名言：“三日不读书，便觉语言无味，面目可憎。”不仅面目可憎，按照brain food的说法，不读书，会“脑死亡”啊！
