Oriana Fallaci (1929–2006) was defined as “one of the most-read and best-loved writers in the world” by the dean of Chicago’s Columbia College, who awarded her an honorary degree in literature. As a war correspondent she had covered the great majority of our time’s conflicts, from Vietnam to the Middle East. Her books have been translated and sold in thirty countries.
Published for the first time in 1979 by Rizzoli, A Man is the passionate story of Alekos Panagulis, hero of the Greek Resistance and Fallaci’s partner. On May 1, 1976, Alexandros Panagulis, known as Alekos, the lonely hero of the Greek riot against tyranny and power, died tragically in a suspicious car crash. During his funeral, millions of people crowded the streets of Athens screaming “Zi, zi, zi!”—“Live, live, live!” This is the opening scene of A Man—and the final scene in the life of Alekos and of his love story with the author.
The narration goes back some years, and the reader relives the breakdown of Alekos’s relationship with Oriana Fallaci, starting with his attempt to kill the tyrant Papadopulos and his consequent arrest. Balancing romance and reportage, Fallaci describes Alekos’s personal fight against tyranny and his desperate attempt to escape his inevitable arrest.
Alekos became a real hero for the Greek population; the political leadership could not kill him without stirring up the suspicion of the public. The government built him a prison called Boiati, where he survived tremendous torture, hunger strikes, and terribly unsanitary conditions. After his release, Fallaci met and interviewed him. They fell in love and shared years of romance, obsession, and madness, all recounted in this extraordinary book. The story centers on their strong and deep love, intertwined with the struggle of this Greek tragic hero, who desperately looked for freedom and who, in the end, was just a man.
看到评分这么高,作者又是传奇的法拉奇,我不由催促同学帮忙借来看。刚开始非常吸引我,倒叙的手法,形象生动的语言,能感受现场的一切情况。但是一半之后,觉得乏味了,因为,这个疯狂的充满幻想的男人,总是不断重复做一些让人匪夷所思的事情,感觉后半段过于描述事情去了,...
評分也是高中时候在二手书店淘到这本书,对这位名作者我是一无所知,只是随着情节的发展,渐渐崇拜起主人公刚强不屈,特别是在监狱里的疯狂斗争,那么豁达,是谭嗣同似的笑对死亡,是对世间枷锁的无情嘲讽。这本书影响了我,让我在反抗一切不合理时总有股来自遥远的力量。
評分你可以威胁他,如果招了,就好好枪毙你;如果不招,就用卡车撞死你。游击队员都会招。 更何况侯总卖的六克拉的钻石呢。 女抗日英雄说在刑场上说,不要打爆我的头。 只见日了,没见抗日阿?
評分今天是闷热的,午后两点出门的人,无疑是傻子。走在路上甚至能发觉泊油路上蒸腾的热气,使得视线里的汽车和人群变得扭曲。 我需要一个舒服的沙发、冷气和音乐来静静度过这个午后,因为我找到了一个伟大的女人写得一本伟大的书。 来到每周光顾的咖啡馆,不变的座位,相同的饮...
評分帕纳古利斯在法庭上的苏格拉底式的自我申辩 “军事法庭的先生们,我的话不长,不会让你们听烦的。甚至连我在审讯期间遭受的侮辱也不想多谈,之前已经讲得足够多了。在分析对我提出的控告之前,我想谈谈那次可耻的预审的另一方面,这就是你们伪造证据,将预先炮制好的证词强加...
