Audiobook Dictation: “You see, in Mariposa, shaving isn't…”

You see, in Mariposa, shaving isn't the hurried, perfunctory thing that it is in the city.

Begini, di Mariposa, bercukur bukanlah urusan terburu-buru dan asal-asalan seperti di kota.

A shave is looked upon as a form of physical pleasure and lasts anywhere from twenty-five minutes to three-quarters of an hour.

Bercukur dianggap sebagai semacam kenikmatan jasmani dan bisa berlangsung dua puluh lima menit hingga tiga perempat jam.

It makes one drowsy just to think of it!

Membayangkannya saja sudah bikin mengantuk!

The conversation, of course, was the real charm of the place.

Tentu saja, obrolanlah daya tarik sesungguhnya tempat itu.

You see, Jefferson's forte, or specialty, was information.

Begini, keahlian, atau spesialisasi, Jefferson adalah informasi.

Where he got it all, I don't know, but I am inclined to think it came more or less out of the newspapers.

Dari mana ia mendapatkan semua itu, aku tidak tahu, tetapi aku cenderung mengira semuanya kurang lebih berasal dari surat kabar.

In the city, people never read the newspapers, not really, only little bits and scraps of them.

Di kota, orang tak pernah membaca surat kabar, tidak sungguh-sungguh, hanya potongan-potongan kecil saja.

But in Mariposa it's different.

Tetapi di Mariposa lain ceritanya.
