In one of the most intrepid travelogues in recent memory, Emma Larkin tells of the year she spent traveling through Burma, using as a compass the life and work of George Orwell, whom many of Burma's underground teahouse intellectuals call simply the Prophet.In stirring prose, she provides a powerful reckoning with one of the world's least free countries.
Finding George Orwell in Burma is a brave and revelatory reconnaissance of modern Burma, one of the world's grimmest and most shuttered police states, where the term Orwellian aptly describes the life endured by the country's people. A truer picture of authoritarianism than anyone has written since, perhaps, Orwell himself.
具体描述
读后感
对局外人而言，缅甸是一个“密不透风的国度”。一方面是“风景完美如明信片”，另一面却是“拥有世界最差人权记录”。然而，“整个5000万人民遭到的高压竟然可以完全从视野中消失”——这让旅行者、同时也是新闻人的艾玛·拉金深为震惊：这一切是怎样发生的？而在此平静的幻象...
评分高中的时候，因为模联的缘故在了解人权问题时关注过缅甸的历史。那时适逢昂山素季去领取她三十年前获得的诺贝尔和平奖。当事也曾看过这部关于她的传记电影《The Lady》，对于她被缅甸军政府被软禁十余年但在其间仍不遗余力为缅甸人权发声印象深刻。还记得她在诺奖颁奖时主题为...
评分2015年9-10月我在缅甸旅行。时间距离这本书中作者在缅甸已经有10多年了。毫无疑问缅甸发生了翻天覆地的变化，但也有一些东西从未改变。 我在仰光的住处是印度人聚居区。这里离苏雷塔很近，离中国城也不远。这里年代久远，在我住的B&B傍边的小街道上都是殖民时期的旧式房屋，泛...
评分书所记录的内容，是一个极佳的纽带，连接奥威尔时代的殖民缅甸与奥威尔语言之下的极权缅甸，值得我们反思帝国主义与极权主义的关联与本质差别。虽然知道缅甸是军人独裁国家，但确实没有深入了解过这个国家的历史与人民生活状况，毕竟在亚洲，远一点有东西朝鲜两朵奇葩竞相争艳...

一本缅甸游记，作者预设的立场过强。书里的人全是愤青的既视感。
评分Keep the faith, and do not be cynical.
评分中规中矩的游记式纪实文学，后殖民式物语。全面、深刻，有感召力，但没有沉淀。不过这并非因为作者没有同理心：只能说拉尔金虽然有很深的亚洲背景，然而毕竟不属于极权语境中的一部分，缺乏对这种叙事下的他者感同身受的能力。 当然，这仍然是一本了解缅甸的非常好的读本。这个国家与你国诸多相似之处，一丘之貉，一点不为过。
评分極權政治下的文學聚會
评分看了很久很久，一直听着rice叔的unplayed piano。对比现在的缅甸，不知作者会有什么新的想法。
