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。
评分All authoritarian regimes act alike, all authoritarian regimes fear alike - its own people.
评分文笔流畅,超带入性。
评分在不能说话的年代,能做的只有不要忘记
评分一直想去看的国家,书中的人物感觉还是浮光掠影,并没有去深入了解和剖析,就是路过聊天而已,作者对于人物的预设立场也很强。但还是提高了大量关于这个国家的信息,特别是老百姓的日常,让人从一个方面看到了现代缅甸人的生活。
Emma Larkin is the pseudonym for an American journalist who was born and raised in Asia, studied the Burmese language at the School of Oriental and African Studies in London, and covers Asia widely in her journalism from her base in Bangkok. She has been visiting Burma for close to fifteen years. Emily Durante has been acting since the age of seven, performing in a number of stage plays professionally, in the community, and at the college level. Other performance credits include commercial and industrial voice work, educational live theater, and singing telegrams. She has been narrating audiobooks for over ten years. Her titles include the Midnight Twins trilogy by Jacqueline Mitchard, Casting Off by Nicole R. Dickson, Impossible and Locked Inside both by Nancy Werlin, and Smooth Talking Stranger by Lisa Kleypus. She has also directed audiobooks, including the Earphones Award-winning performance of Heaven's Keep narrated by Buck Schirner. Emily resides in the Philadelphia area with her husband and two children.
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.
在未看艾玛·拉金的《在缅甸寻找奥威尔》之前,我一直以为奥威尔的反乌托邦思想及著作源自西班牙内战,以及那个时期苏联所表现出的恐怖与残暴,比如阅读《一九八四》,脑海中便浮现出与老大哥形象对应的苏联或与之紧密联系的极权国家,缅甸则从未出现在想象性视野之中。但该书...
评分 评分多数读者了解乔治·奥威尔,还是通过《一九八四》与《动物庄园》这样两部“反乌托邦”的作品。说来尴尬,在现下,知道“一九八四”的人,恐怕要比知道“乌托邦”的多上不少。究其原因,大概是前者更容易被对号入座,而乌托邦,则已经是过期的幻想。 《一九八四》是一次对于极权...
评分这个故事很流行:缅甸有这么一个传说:有一条恶龙,每年要求村庄献祭一个处女,每年这个村庄都会有一个少年英雄去与恶龙搏斗,但无人生还。又一个英雄出发时,有人悄悄尾随。龙穴铺满金银财宝,英雄用剑刺死恶龙,然后坐在尸身上,看着闪烁的珠宝,慢慢地长出鳞片、尾巴和触角...
