Indigo vs Chapters/書店大車拼

Indigo vs Chapters/書店大車拼

About 10 years ago, two mega bookstores appeared in Canada. One is Chapters, the other Indigo. They were gigantic libraries that allow people to talk. They also came with built in coffee shop. Eventually, Indigo bought Chapters, for the later had expanded too quickly for their own good. Their stores still kept different names, but the website has changed to http://www.chapters.indigo.ca/

約十年前,加拿大出現兩家大型書店:Indigo跟Chapters它們像是可以在裡頭說話的圖書館,還內建咖啡廳。後來Chapters因為擴充太快,受不了庫存壓力,而被Indigo收購。實體書店仍保留原名,但網站統一為:http://www.chapters.indigo.ca/


因為名字不能意譯,所以我把Indigo譯作“硬的狗”。


曾經跟硬的狗打對臺,那理所當然該叫“軟的貓”了。
