From the author of In the Country of Men, a Man Booker Prize and National Book Critics Circle Award finalist, comes a beautifully written, uplifting memoir of his journey home to his native Libya in search of the truth behind his father’s disappearance.
When Hisham Matar was a nineteen-year-old university student in England, his father was kidnapped. One of the Qaddafi regime’s most prominent opponents in exile, he was held in a secret prison in Libya. Hisham would never see him again. But he never gave up hope that his father might still be alive. “Hope,” as he writes, “is cunning and persistent.”
Twenty-two years later, after the fall of Qaddafi, the prison cells are empty and there is no sign of Jaballa Matar. Hisham returns with his mother and wife to the homeland he never thought he’d go back to again. The Return is the story of what he found there. It is at once an exquisite meditation on history, politics, and art, a brilliant portrait of a nation and a people on the cusp of change, and a disquieting depiction of the brutal legacy of absolute power. Above all, it is a universal tale of loss and love and of one family’s life. Hisham Matar asks the harrowing question: How does one go on living in the face of a loved one’s uncertain fate?

评分死者仍然和我们共同活在这个世界上，我们的悲痛，不过是为了应对身体上的死亡。时间与空间都是无限的，生命不是一次性的事件，因此“他已经死了”这样的宣布是不准确的。
评分在你过着当下小小的你的生活的时候，这世界时时刻刻在发生着超出你理解底线的事情。
评分一段也许永远都无法解开的死亡之谜，一个家族几代人对暴政的抗争，一个国家动乱的近现代史
评分R4 read by Khalid Abdalla. NY-- Tripoli, Libya-- Cairo--London
