参考译文：我曾经写过一篇论文，是关于童话对Roald Dahl写作影响这方面的。它使我对他奇特而又令人愉快的话语产生了一种新的理解。马蒂尔达与她残酷无情的父母，专横跋扈的校长Trunchbull小姐之间的“战争”虽然有些激烈，令人毛骨悚然，但是也很励志。

It’s about two sisters — Eri, a model who either won’t or can’t stop sleeping, and Mari, a young student． In trying to connect to her sister, Mari starts changing her life and discovers a world of diverse "night people" who are hiding secrets．
