具体描述
National Bestseller One of the Best Books of the Year: New York Times , Washington Post , Los Angeles Times , USA Today , Boston Globe , and Time An instant classic of war reporting, The Forever War is the definitive account of America's conflict with Islamic fundamentalism and a searing exploration of its human costs. Through the eyes of Filkins, a foreign correspondent for the New York Times, we witness the rise of the Taliban in the 1990s, the aftermath of the attack on New York on September 11th, and the American wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Filkins is the only American journalist to have reported on all these events, and his experiences are conveyed in a riveting narrative filled with unforgettable characters and astonishing scenes. Brilliant and fearless, The Forever War is not just about America's wars after 9/11, but about the nature of war itself.

读后感
之前在热销榜上寻得此书，就像跑步之前的热身总是稍显无趣，书的开篇并没有吸引到我，反而由于纪实文学的特点，所有东西显得没有头绪。不过当我我关注新闻中isis出现时，让我对于中东这个神奇的地方产生了浓厚的兴趣。而恰巧我也逐渐来到了书中最吸引我的地方。作者毕竟是西方...
评分从一开始就注定了心情沉重，绝望，死心。只求安安静静地读完，离开，睡觉。 为什么一直是穆斯林？全世界其他宗教都好好的，为什么战争、恐怖活动总是牵扯着他们？记得大学时一次英语外教给我们列了几件事让我们选出认为最不应该的。候选的无一例外都controversial,如一个慈善...
评分这个世界从来都不是非黑即白的简单视界。然而人类总是健忘。在某一历史事件发生之后，往往从最初的关注转向麻木，从而忘记去探寻这一切的起因、根源与始末。人们习惯于将“911”作为划分一系列事件的节点。一边厢，极端宗教分子和狭隘的民族主义者抱持着消灭“异族”的偏见发起...
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...
评分有些人把游戏玩成战争，有些人把战争当做游戏，夹杂着宗教，恐怖主义，平民，国际组织。人们最热切的希望是和平，最不愿看到那些20岁左右的青年在战争中死去，因为他们和我一样还有很多没有经历的想想就觉得美的事情没有去做呢。喜欢作者作为陈述者的态度，还有译者的用词生动。
