From the front lines of the battle against Islamic fundamentalism, a searing, unforgettable book that captures the human essence of the greatest conflict of our time.
Through the eyes of Dexter Filkins, the prizewinning New York Times correspondent whose work was hailed by David Halberstam as “reporting of the highest quality imaginable,” we witness the remarkable chain of events that began with the rise of the Taliban in the 1990s, continued with the attacks of 9/11, and moved on to the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.
Filkins’s narrative moves across a vast and various landscape of amazing characters and astonishing scenes: deserts, mountains, and streets of carnage; a public amputation performed by Taliban; children frolicking in minefields; skies streaked white by the contrails of B-52s; a night’s sleep in the rubble of Ground Zero.
We embark on a foot patrol through the shadowy streets of Ramadi, venture into a torture chamber run by Saddam Hussein. We go into the homes of suicide bombers and into street-to-street fighting with a battalion of marines. We meet Iraqi insurgents, an American captain who loses a quarter of his men in eight days, and a young soldier from Georgia on a rooftop at midnight reminiscing about his girlfriend back home. A car bomb explodes, bullets fly, and a mother cradles her blinded son.
Like no other book, The Forever War allows us a visceral understanding of today’s battlefields and of the experiences of the people on the ground, warriors and innocents alike. It is a brilliant, fearless work, not just about America’s wars after 9/11, but ultimately about the nature of war itself.
具体描述
读后感
有些人把游戏玩成战争，有些人把战争当做游戏，夹杂着宗教，恐怖主义，平民，国际组织。人们最热切的希望是和平，最不愿看到那些20岁左右的青年在战争中死去，因为他们和我一样还有很多没有经历的想想就觉得美的事情没有去做呢。喜欢作者作为陈述者的态度，还有译者的用词生动。
评分自從歐美文明“反超崛起”，用自身的價值定義了“現代性”，然後包裝在文明之中，以船堅炮利向其他各地傳送後，除此之外的各地傳統文化無不受到衝擊，或接受，融合，或堅持抵抗，總都是要面對。位於“中東”(這個詞本身就具爭議)的伊斯蘭過去跟歐洲相隔最近，兩者之間的糾葛最...
评分在一个被混乱，黑暗，欺骗，绝望，却仍然窜动希望火苗的世界里，人们早已丧失辨别真假的能力。张开怀抱却可能万箭穿心，冷眼相待也并非怀恨在心。人们早已忘记了如何去相信，只能形如骷髅，在死亡的“圆圈”之间游离。 如果“独裁”只是为自由世界里画上了一个禁足圈，在这个圈...
评分从一开始就注定了心情沉重，绝望，死心。只求安安静静地读完，离开，睡觉。 为什么一直是穆斯林？全世界其他宗教都好好的，为什么战争、恐怖活动总是牵扯着他们？记得大学时一次英语外教给我们列了几件事让我们选出认为最不应该的。候选的无一例外都controversial,如一个慈善...

Only the dead have seen the end of war.
评分感觉就像一篇超长的《纽约时报》周刊的文章。说实话在读了这么多报道后，里面的内容已经有些过时，而且很难有任何出人意料的成分。而且，这种以个人经历为主的书籍很难像Emerald City一样让人一下子看清全景，更多是盲人摸象的感觉。但无论如何，此书依然写的还不错，另外也有些让人感动的地方。
评分挺好看
评分Only the dead have seen the end of war.
评分战地记者娓娓道来的故事，让人觉得战争残忍而又无意义，一个个生命消逝如儿戏，一群人最后甚至都已忘了当初为何而战。愿这世界上战争越来越少，make love ，not war。
