苏珊·阿布哈瓦
1967年出生于巴勒斯坦。自幼颠沛流离于过科威特、约旦和被占领的东耶路撒冷,最后到达美国,在南卡罗来纳大学医学院取得营养学硕士学位,目前定居于美国。阿布哈瓦对西方媒体看待以巴冲突的报导感到失望,她经常向各大报纸投稿,作品常见《纽约日报》、《芝加哥论坛报》、《基督教科学箴言报》。阿布哈瓦是非政府组织“巴勒斯坦游乐场”(Playgrounds for Palestine, Inc. www.playgroundsforpalestine.org)的创办者,在被占领的巴勒斯坦领土与各个难民营为儿童修建游乐场,捍卫占领区内巴勒斯坦儿童的游戏权。
A heart-wrenching, powerfully written novel that could do for Palestine what "The Kite Runner "did for Afghanistan. Forcibly removed from the ancient village of Ein Hod by the newly formed state of Israel in 1948, the Abulhejas are moved into the Jenin refugee camp. There, exiled from his beloved olive groves, the family patriarch languishes of a broken heart, his eldest son fathers a family and falls victim to an Israeli bullet, and his grandchildren struggle against tragedy toward freedom, peace, and home. This is the Palestinian story, told as never before, through four generations of a single family. The very precariousness of existence in the camps quickens life itself. Amal, the patriarch's bright granddaughter, feels this with certainty when she discovers the joys of young friendship and first love and especially when she loses her adored father, who read to her daily as a young girl in the quiet of the early dawn. Through Amal we get the stories of her twin brothers, one who is kidnapped by an Israeli soldier and raised Jewish; the other who sacrifices everything for the Palestinian cause. Amal's own dramatic story threads between the major Palestinian-Israeli clashes of three decades; it is one of love and loss, of childhood, marriage, and parenthood, and finally of the need to share her history with her daughter, to preserve the greatest love she has. Previously published in a hardcover edition with a limited run under the title "The Scar of David," this powerful novel is now available in a fully revised, newly titled paperback edition. The deep and moving humanity of "Mornings in Jenin "forces us to take a fresh look at one of the defining political conflicts of our lifetimes.
躺在床上,默默的也看完了《大卫的伤疤》 关于以色列,关于巴勒斯坦,关于黎巴嫩,还关于能接纳一切名族的美国... 前不久看了十三钗,对战争中士兵与妇女的残忍,一而再的怵目惊心,而在书中轻描淡写的几句,发觉,这样的事情在巴勒斯坦怎么可能会没有呢,抑或是参杂这其他...
评分看完了,心里难受了一阵。 每个峰回路转,每次他们的相聚都以为结局会是越来越好,故事却在阿梅尔的家人一个个离去中发展,最后是她的离去。 从来没有太过关注中东,不太关注巴勒斯坦,以色列,黎巴嫩,阿拉伯。看完书,默默地想了很久,没有经历过战争年代的我们,常常以为只...
评分把几代人的一生,进行浓缩,是一件多么可怖的事情,一个个鲜活灵魂在苦难中消失,生命最终归于麻木的成熟,所有这些脱水的人生,在失去了占据生活绝大多数的平淡点缀后,显得那么赤裸,像一道不加遮挡的光,刺痛双眼。 作者对战争和痛苦的描写,人物内心的刻画,一次次震撼着我...
评分刚接手《大卫的伤疤》,觉得叙述生硬,不自觉将其与卡勒德胡塞尼的《追风筝的人》作比较,又是一本控诉战争的小说,这次讲的是什么呢?爱情还是友谊,勇气还是坚毅? 随着剧情的推进,我才意识到,这次我面对的是历史、是真相,是冷冰冰的枪炮对渺小的巴勒斯坦难民无情...
