Germans who like to read on the toilet no longer need to take newspapers in with them, but can instead turn to novels and poems printed onto toilet paper, a German publisher said. "We want our books to be used. That's our philosophy," said Georges Hemmerstoffer, head of the Klo-Verlag which publishes the toilet paper literature. About half of all people liked to read on the toilet, he added1. Poems by German literary2 giants Heinrich Heine and Christian3 Morgenstern*, as well as tales and detective stories could be found on the toilet rolls, Hemmerstoffer told reporters at the Frankfurt book fair. Each text was printed several times on one roll, so that readers could actually use the paper and still leave behind some entertainment for the next toilet visitor.

  * Christian Morgenstern:克里斯廷-摩根施泰恩(1871-1914),德国诗人。

  德国一位出版商宣布,喜欢厕上阅读的德国人不用再拿着报纸进卫生间了,他们可以阅读印在厕纸上的小说和诗歌。厕纸文学出版商克罗-维拉格公司老板乔吉斯-黑默斯托弗说:"我们希望自己出版的书籍被人使用,这是我们的哲学。"他补充说,大约半数的人喜欢在如厕时阅读。黑默斯托弗在法兰克福书展上对记者说,人们在厕纸上可以读到德国文学巨擘海因里希-海涅和克里斯廷-摩根施泰恩的诗歌,还有故事和侦探小说。每段文字都会在同一卷厕纸中反复出现,这样厕所读者们就可以实际使用它,不会妨碍下一位如厕者的阅读。

  Remarks:这样的发明使肠胃不好的人们都有了成为饱学之士的希望,只不知那些在厕纸文学中占有一席之地的作家们会作何感想。
