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.

读后感
这本书由曾获普利策奖的战地记者Dexter Filkins所著，原书名为《Forever war:dispathes from the war on terror》，翻译过来就是《无尽之战：来自反恐战争的战地报道》。译者的翻译，缘于本书作者在战地生活的9年里，不论多绝望的环境中仍然坚持跑步。跑步总是释放出乐观和积极...
评分原著自不必说，一个资深记者，语言流畅，论述翔实，从附注中就能看出来他写书时职业新闻从业人员的严谨。 接下来就要说但是了。 但是，翻译的水准实在是不敢恭维，甚或有些令人恼火。（如果译者本人看到不要傲娇，我也是花钱买了书的，允许我发30块钱的火吧。） 总体评价：...
评分之前在热销榜上寻得此书，就像跑步之前的热身总是稍显无趣，书的开篇并没有吸引到我，反而由于纪实文学的特点，所有东西显得没有头绪。不过当我我关注新闻中isis出现时，让我对于中东这个神奇的地方产生了浓厚的兴趣。而恰巧我也逐渐来到了书中最吸引我的地方。作者毕竟是西方...
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...
