"In the Koran, the first thing God said to Muhammad was 'Read.'"*--Alia Muhammad Baker Alia Muhammad Baker is a librarian in Basra, Iraq. For fourteen years, her library has been a meeting place for those who love books. Until now. Now war has come, and Alia fears that the library--along with the thirty thousand books within it--will be destroyed forever. In a war-stricken country where civilians--especially women--have little power, this true story about a librarian's struggle to save her community's priceless collection of books reminds us all how, throughout the world, the love of literature and the respect for knowledge know no boundaries. """Includes an author's note. "*From the "New York Times, " July 27, 2003

很久没有看过这么动人的新闻式故事了。简单精炼的文字语言,超强的文字画面感。激发人们对书籍的尊敬,对和平的向往。 精炼的英文,读起来毫无负担。最适合初学英语这的读物。我没见过马克吐温的原文,但个人觉得,这篇报道也可以担得起大家对马克吐温的那种盛赞了。
