Waris Dirie (the name means desert flower) lives a double life - by day she is a famous model and UN spokeswoman on women's rights in Africa, at night she dreams of her native Somalia. Waris, one of 12 children, was born into a traditional family of desert nomads in East Africa. She remembers her early childhood as carefree- racing camels and moving on with her family to the next grazing spot - until it came her turn to meet the old woman who administered the ancient custom imposed on most Somalian girls: circumcision. Waris suffered this torture when she was just five years old. Then, aged 12, when her father attempted to arrange a marriage with a 60 year old stranger in exchange for five camels - she took flight. After an extraordinary escape through the dangerous desert she made her way to London and worked as a maid for the Somalian ambassador until that family returned home. Penniless and speaking little English, she became a janitor in Mc Donalds where she was famously discovered by a fashion photographer. Her story is a truly inspirational and extraordinary self-portrait of a remarkable woman whose spirit is as breathtaking as her beauty.
华利斯•迪里,索马里牧羊女出身,十三岁穿越重重险阻走出非洲,其间险些葬身狮口,历尽艰辛之后终于柳暗花明,进入欧美时尚界,成为世界名模,继而成为联合国人权特使。2004年入籍奥地利。
五星不是为了文学价值,但是为了这本书带来的文化冲击,在非洲之角-索马里,导致死亡的割礼,对未成年的性侵犯,极度的男尊女卑还在进行着,最关键是大多数人都是逆来顺受的接受着所谓“传统”,希望更多的人了解那片土地发生的故事,从而为了改变而付出可能的努力,当前我只能通过多推荐这本书努力。

之前看过电影,比较震惊。书的内容更纤细些,但我想说的不是华利斯迪里童年时为了食物、水源过着整日疲于奔跑的艰苦生活,不是割礼对非洲大多数女性残忍的毒害,也不是华利斯成为名模的尖酸成长历程。而是,书中从11章开始华利斯对神的称呼,从前十章中的安拉改成之后的上帝,...

评分这部电影的色调是沉重的,在那个落后而饱经苦难的国家,匮乏的资源,落后的思想,毁人性的风俗。电影中时而有倒叙即回忆的镜头,最令人难以忍受那喷薄的情感应当是华莉丝自述自己被迫进行“割礼”,配合着镜头播放,场面感带来的实为震撼。女性割礼是非洲的陋习,割礼的目的之...
