　　Author Suzanne Collins is to pen a prequel to the original Hunger Games trilogy, publisher Scholastic has confirmed.

　　美国学乐出版集团已证实，《饥饿游戏》三部曲原著作者苏珊·柯林斯将会写一部前传。

　　这部尚未命名的系列小说计划于2020年5月19日出版，这部前传将再度围绕帕纳姆的世界展开，故事发生在原三部曲的64年前。

　　Collins confirmed the novel will focus on the years after the so-called Dark Days of a failed rebellion in the city.

　　柯林斯证实，小说将聚焦帕纳姆起义失败的“黑暗日子”后的岁月。

　　It will "explore the state of nature" as Panem attempts to rebuild, she said.

　　她说，新书将探索帕纳姆试图重建过程中的“自然状态”。

　　She added that the characters would also look at "who we are, and what we perceive is required for our survival".

　　The setting "provides fertile ground for characters to grapple with these questions and thereby define their views of humanity," her statement added.

　　她在声明中补充道，故事背景“为角色寻找这些问题的答案提供了沃土，从而界定角色对人性的看法”。

　　Scholastic said it was "absolutely thrilled" at the prospect of introducing devoted fans and a new audience to "an entirely new perspective on this modern classic".

　　学乐出版集团称，对于即将向这部现代经典著作的新老粉丝带来一个全新视角，他们感到“非常激动”。

　　Collins set the original trilogy in a post-apocalyptic dystopia where young people must fight and kill each other, on live television.
