图书描述

A novel written by a veteran of the war in Iraq, The Yellow Birds is the harrowing story of two young soldiers trying to stay alive.

"The war tried to kill us in the spring." So begins this powerful account of friendship and loss. In Al Tafar, Iraq, twenty-one-year old Private Bartle and eighteen-year-old Private Murphy cling to life as their platoon launches a bloody battle for the city. Bound together since basic training when Bartle makes a promise to bring Murphy safely home, the two have been dropped into a war neither is prepared for.

In the endless days that follow, the two young soldiers do everything to protect each other from the forces that press in on every side: the insurgents, physical fatigue, and the mental stress that comes from constant danger. As reality begins to blur into a hazy nightmare, Murphy becomes increasingly unmoored from the world around him and Bartle takes actions he could never have imagined.

With profound emotional insight, especially into the effects of a hidden war on mothers and families at home, The Yellow Birds is a groundbreaking novel that is destined to become a classic.

能把战场写的这么郭敬明也是不多见

评分☆☆☆☆☆

一本写得很用力、也很富有感染力的小说，但不难见出美国创意写作教学的痕迹。去年是Tea Obreht's The Tiger's Wife，今年是Kevin Powers's The Yellow Birds，美国出版界这两年对新作家的力捧有点歇斯底里。

评分☆☆☆☆☆

我的同学里面有两位是我知道从阿富汗战场上回来的陆军，其中一位是拆弹部队的，服役8年，还有一位好像是sniper。我跟他们都不熟，他们平时笑的时候跟普通人没有什么区别，但是偶尔安静的时候，会露出那种作者Powers的神情，那是一种不可言喻的悲伤绝望，带着可怕的冷静甚至无所谓的漠然。

作者在书中以第一人称Bart分两条时间线叙述在伊拉克战争时和休假及退役后的生活。两个年轻人Bart21岁，Murph18岁，都为生存而战，详细的描述了他们在伊拉克作战的艰苦环境。战争是可怕的，军人也有权害怕，他们曾说宁愿美国马上投降，只希望自己远离这一切，这是人之常情。在战争中经常会看到战友死去，大多时候是听说某连死去了一个人，觉得很遥远，而当一个人死在M身旁时一切都变了，M心理极度恐惧与厌恶战争，尤其是当那个女医生也被炸死时，他彻底“死去”，裸奔出军营，最后被伊拉克人们残忍杀害，Bart找到他时隐瞒了这些，将他的尸体抛入河中。M的妈妈坚持要求真相，B被调查，为他就那么替她做了决定而付出牢狱1000多天的代价。B从战争中回来时，经历了很久封闭的生活，一直在逃避，战争对人的心理创伤是多么大啊
