In one of the most intrepid travelogues in recent memory, Emma Larkin tells of the year she spent traveling through Burma, using as a compass the life and work of George Orwell, whom many of Burma's underground teahouse intellectuals call simply the Prophet.In stirring prose, she provides a powerful reckoning with one of the world's least free countries.
Finding George Orwell in Burma is a brave and revelatory reconnaissance of modern Burma, one of the world's grimmest and most shuttered police states, where the term Orwellian aptly describes the life endured by the country's people. A truer picture of authoritarianism than anyone has written since, perhaps, Orwell himself.
具體描述
讀後感
两个月前中国新年，在去曼德勒和眉谬旅行前，向学生借了这本台版书，学生笑说，里面的汉语太难，她一直没能读完，不过这本书正好可以成为我的旅行读物。我怕弄脏学生的书，也没带着上路，终于在来缅甸的第十一个月，花了两三天得闲读完。 这本书的前半部分，读来不适。总觉得...
評分 評分“多一个人看奥威尔，就多了一分自由的保障。”这句印在中文版《一九八四》封面上的话，很好地说明了奥威尔的力量所在。读过《一九八四》的人们，都会惊叹于其中精确的预言，也会产生好奇：奥威尔为什么具有预言能力？ 这个问题可能不止一个答案。虽然很多知识分子在 1956 年赫...
評分2015年9-10月我在缅甸旅行。时间距离这本书中作者在缅甸已经有10多年了。毫无疑问缅甸发生了翻天覆地的变化，但也有一些东西从未改变。 我在仰光的住处是印度人聚居区。这里离苏雷塔很近，离中国城也不远。这里年代久远，在我住的B&B傍边的小街道上都是殖民时期的旧式房屋，泛...
評分本书作者艾玛·拉金，于2011年前用了多年时间走遍了乔治·奥威尔当年在缅甸曾经驻足过的地方，她甚至寻到了一些帝国时代的故人，通过他们回忆起当年这位帝国治下警察，曾在缅甸生活的吉光片羽；然而物是人非，当年缅甸还有着大英帝国的影子：英式俱乐部，网球场，能吃到西餐的...
用戶評價
一直想去看的國傢，書中的人物感覺還是浮光掠影，並沒有去深入瞭解和剖析，就是路過聊天而已，作者對於人物的預設立場也很強。但還是提高瞭大量關於這個國傢的信息，特彆是老百姓的日常，讓人從一個方麵看到瞭現代緬甸人的生活。

评分George Orwll和Burma是賣點，吸引瞭我的眼球，結果Emma Larkin絮絮叨叨到最後幾乎讀不下去。不過前兩章還是有幾節亮點。
评分看瞭很久很久，一直聽著rice叔的unplayed piano。對比現在的緬甸，不知作者會有什麼新的想法。
评分終於看完瞭！如詩如畫。
