這麼詳細甚至過於繁復的迴憶錄讓人很難一直保持耐心,卻又偶爾迸齣迸齣一些極有共鳴的瞬間。這樣的閱讀體驗很難得。曾經擁有一切的古巴上層社會白人孩子在革命後被迫離傢來到美國,成為社會“底層”的一員而重新奮鬥到美國上層。這樣的經曆很難不讓他在麵對自己和自己的原生國時也帶著極度極度的liberal價值觀。也許這本迴憶錄最大的功效反而是讓我理解瞭那些攜妻帶子、一定要來到美國尋找更好生活的“無證”移民們。隻是,迴憶錄和文學可以美好而真摯,政治與現實卻要復雜得多呀。以及,作者跟康德是有多大仇,哈哈哈
評分少數幾本實在是讀不下去的。不得不離開的傢鄉,美好的童年,本是喚起讀者的共情的好題材,但作者對迴憶的描述過於自我和片麵,像喋喋不休的祥林嫂。

"Have mercy on me, Lord, I am Cuban." In 1962, Carlos Eire was one of 14,000 children airlifted out of Cuba -- exiled from his family, his country, and his own childhood by the revolution. The memories of Carlos's life in Havana, cut short when he was just eleven years old, are at the heart of this stunning, evocative, and unforgettable memoir. Waiting for Snow in Havana is both an exorcism and an ode to a paradise lost. For the Cuba of Carlos's youth -- with its lizards and turquoise seas and sun-drenched siestas -- becomes an island of condemnation once a cigar-smoking guerrilla named Fidel Castro ousts President Batista on January 1, 1959. Suddenly the music in the streets sounds like gunfire. Christmas is made illegal, political dissent leads to imprisonment, and too many of Carlos's friends are leaving Cuba for a place as far away and unthinkable as the United States. Carlos will end up there, too, and fulfill his mother's dreams by becoming a modern American man -- even if his soul remains in the country he left behind. Narrated with the urgency of a confession, Waiting for Snow in Havana is a eulogy for a native land and a loving testament to the collective spirit of Cubans everywhere.
