In January 2002 Rory Stewart walked across Afghanistan-surviving by his wits, his knowledge of Persian dialects and Muslim customs, and the kindness of strangers. By day he passed through mountains covered in nine feet of snow, hamlets burned and emptied by the Taliban, and communities thriving amid the remains of medieval civilizations. By night he slept on villagers' floors, shared their meals, and listened to their stories of the recent and ancient past. Along the way Stewart met heroes and rogues, tribal elders and teenage soldiers, Taliban commanders and foreign-aid workers. He was also adopted by an unexpected companion-a retired fighting mastiff he named Babur in honor of Afghanistan's first Mughal emperor, in whose footsteps the pair was following.

Through these encounters-by turns touching, con-founding, surprising, and funny-Stewart makes tangible the forces of tradition, ideology, and allegiance that shape life in the map's countless places in between.

今年的英国议会大选,我关注的罗瑞·斯图尔特(Rory Stewart)不出意料地击败对手,顺利连任议员。在很多观察家眼里,再次当选说明他在通向荣任英国首相或外交大臣的长长阶梯上又前进了一步。五年前罗瑞·斯图尔特突然放弃他在哈佛的教职和学院生活,作为保守党候选人参加英国...

读完《寻路阿富汗》,意犹未尽,竟不忍放手。作者诚恳又诚实,用平静而朴实的文字写步行穿越阿富汗的遭遇,不渲染,不煽情,却动人心弦,惊心动魄,也有无奈之幽默。文字处处能体现作者对于阿富汗有着“理解之同情”:生活在战乱中几十年的人们,贫穷无知却也虔诚;粗鲁野蛮却...

为什么是阿富汗? 作者罗瑞·斯图尔特已经穿越了伊朗、尼泊尔、印度等地……在书的前几章,他表述了自己的初衷,阿富汗是他的徒步旅行中所缺的一环,“从荒漠到喜马拉雅,从波斯,希腊到印度文化,从伊斯兰教到佛教从神秘主义的伊斯兰,到军事组织的伊斯兰。”这样一个文化互相...

如果自己不能去阿富汗,這本書可以帶你去阿富汗走一圈,瞭解他們的人文,曆史,和地理。

Sad to read in the final page that Barbur the mastiff died of the rack of lamb he had eaten for the first time and for the last time in his whole life, after the long, tough journey across the mountains and valleys of Afghanistan with author

作者是個英國人,在2002年塔利班剛倒颱以後, 鼕天獨自徒步穿越阿富汗。一路遭遇各色人等,甚是精彩。2006年紐約時報的10佳推薦書目之一

评分

Interesting, but travel writing isn't really his forte.

评分

看過唐師曾的中東係列之後,再看Rory的伊拉剋散記,猶如政治課後的社會學盤點,細緻真實瑣碎,卻又不失獵奇和對生命的思考,以及對探尋真相的記者的尊敬。
