He noticed that these New England authors rarely visited New York, or, if they did, their presence was not heralded by the newspapers among the "distinguished arrivals." He had a great desire personally to meet these writers; and, having saved a little money, he decided to take his week's summer vacation in the winter, when he knew he should be more likely to find the people of his quest at home, and to spend his savings on a trip to Boston. He had never been away from home, so this trip was a momentous affair.

白话
博克发现新英格兰的作家很少去纽约,即使去了报纸也不会把他们列为“贵宾到访”。他特别想亲自见见这些作家,于是攒了点钱,决定把夏天的假期挪到冬天用,因为冬天作家们更可能在家;他要把积蓄花在去波士顿的旅行上。他从没离开过家,所以这趟旅行对他来说是天大的事。
