From the front lines of the battle against Islamic fundamentalism, a searing, unforgettable book that captures the human essence of the greatest conflict of our time.
Through the eyes of Dexter Filkins, the prizewinning New York Times correspondent whose work was hailed by David Halberstam as “reporting of the highest quality imaginable,” we witness the remarkable chain of events that began with the rise of the Taliban in the 1990s, continued with the attacks of 9/11, and moved on to the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.
Filkins’s narrative moves across a vast and various landscape of amazing characters and astonishing scenes: deserts, mountains, and streets of carnage; a public amputation performed by Taliban; children frolicking in minefields; skies streaked white by the contrails of B-52s; a night’s sleep in the rubble of Ground Zero.
We embark on a foot patrol through the shadowy streets of Ramadi, venture into a torture chamber run by Saddam Hussein. We go into the homes of suicide bombers and into street-to-street fighting with a battalion of marines. We meet Iraqi insurgents, an American captain who loses a quarter of his men in eight days, and a young soldier from Georgia on a rooftop at midnight reminiscing about his girlfriend back home. A car bomb explodes, bullets fly, and a mother cradles her blinded son.
Like no other book, The Forever War allows us a visceral understanding of today’s battlefields and of the experiences of the people on the ground, warriors and innocents alike. It is a brilliant, fearless work, not just about America’s wars after 9/11, but ultimately about the nature of war itself.

读后感
看这本美国战地记者关于阿富汗和伊拉克战争的非虚构作品前，我很努力的想要去了解关于中东的一些常识性知识。这种努力的最终结果是，去年购买的一本《塔利班：宗教极端主义在阿富汗及其周边地区》依然平静的躺在我的书架上，这本稍微有些大部头的著作我想短期内我应该不会翻阅...
评分我讨厌任何形式的战争。理由是用来做标题那句话。 “我没办法祭奠太多亡灵。”是这本《跑步在最绝望的城市》中，作者在一次恐怖袭击后采访一位幸存者时的答话。那个女孩幸运地躲过了突如其来的灾难，但不幸地，她是她原本庞大家族中，唯一的幸存者。她失去了一切，却要继续...
评分记者始终是记者，报道始终是报道，不是文学。
评分在血腥味和尸臭中沤肥的思想，写出的句子没有废话，只有微微的凉意和咬着牙关的狠劲。有点儿《战争之王》台词的意思。在Dexter Filkins的故事中，你能同时嗅出两种味道，他完全明白自己所讲故事的精彩程度，但并不乐见它们如此精彩。像一个久经欢场的妓女一边津津乐道她神乎其...
评分一个晚上的时间就读完这本《跑步，在最绝望的国家》，合上书的那一刻，一股难以名状的复杂情绪奔袭而来，其中有对于那些以各种理由存在的连绵不断之战争的无限痛恨，也有对于那些生活在战乱之中深受其害深受其苦的人们的无限同情。 在这里我毫不犹豫地用了“同情”两个字，因...
用户评价
感觉就像一篇超长的《纽约时报》周刊的文章。说实话在读了这么多报道后，里面的内容已经有些过时，而且很难有任何出人意料的成分。而且，这种以个人经历为主的书籍很难像Emerald City一样让人一下子看清全景，更多是盲人摸象的感觉。但无论如何，此书依然写的还不错，另外也有些让人感动的地方。
评分挺好看
评分因为英语水平有限，全文有大量的环境描写，读起来十分的不顺畅。看的相当痛苦。视角个人感觉很有代入感。
评分挺好看
评分Only the dead have seen the end of war.
