[책배영]A Monster Calls 몬스터 콜스 [2편] 원서읽기, 영어낭독

1편에 이어 A Monster Calls의 이야기를 영어로 좀 더 읽어 볼까요?

How can a queen be both a good witch and a bad witch? How can a prince be a murderer and a saviour? How can an apothecary be evil-tempered but right-thinking? How can a parson be wrong-thinking but good-hearted? How can invisible men make themselves more lonely by being seen?

"I don't know," Conor shrugged, exhausted. "Your stories never made any sense to me."

You do not write your life with words, the monster said. You write it with actions. What you think is not important. It is only important what you do.

You do what you did just now, the monster said. You speak the truth.
It was not wrong, the monster said, It was only a thought, one of a million. It was not an action.
