　　主題：作家的新書座談

　　Conversation two.

　　M: Welcome to this week's episode of book talk. With me today is Heidi Brown, a historian who has written five critically acclaimed books about military history[5].

　　W: Thanks for having me, John. I'm so excited to talk about my latest book which was published last month.

　　M: So, this book is a novel, your first attempt at that genre. I thought it was a bit of a departure for you.

　　W: I'd say it's a major departure as it's not just a work of fiction[6]. It's set 200 years in the future.

　　M: Right. So how did that happen? You spent three decades writing about the past and focusing on the 18th and 19th centuries[7]. And now you're speculating about the future.

　　W: After years of researching soldiers and chronicling their lives during battle, I just started wondering about other facets of their lives, especially their personal lives[7].

　　M: I can see that. Your novel is about soldiers, but it focuses on their relationships, especially the bonds between sons and mothers and men and their wives.

　　W: Yes. That focus came about when I still intended to write another book of history. I started by researching soldiers, actual personal lives, studying their letters home[7].

　　M: So how did that history book become a novel?

　　W: Well, I realized that the historical record was incomplete, so I'd either have to leave a lot of gaps or make a lot more assumptions than a historian should.

　　M: But why write a novel set in the future when your credentials are perfect for a historical novel? As a historian, any historical novel you write would have a lot of credibility.

　　W: I felt too constrained working with the past, like what I wrote needed to be fact as opposed to fiction[8], but writing about the future gave me more freedom to imagine, to invent.

　　M: Having read your book, I'm glad you made that choice to move into fiction.

　　5. What did the man say about the woman?
