From 1979 to 1989 a million Soviet troops engaged in a devastating war in Afghanistan that claimed 50,000 casualties―and the youth and humanity of many tens of thousands more. Creating controversy and outrage when it was first published in the USSR―it was called by reviewers there a “slanderous piece of fantasy” and part of a “hysterical chorus of malign attacks”―Zinky Boys presents the candid and affecting testimony of the officers and grunts, nurses and prostitutes, mothers, sons, and daughters who describe the war and its lasting effects. What emerges is a story that is shocking in its brutality and revelatory in its similarities to the American experience in Vietnam. The Soviet dead were shipped back in sealed zinc coffins (hence the term “Zinky Boys”), while the state denied the very existence of the conflict. Svetlana Alexievich brings us the truth of the Soviet-Afghan War: the beauty of the country and the savage Army bullying, the killing and the mutilation, the profusion of Western goods, the shame and shattered lives of returned veterans. Zinky Boys offers a unique, harrowing, and unforgettably powerful insight into the realities of war.
Svetlana Alexievich was born in Ivano-Frankivsk, Ukraine, in 1948 and has spent most of her life in the Soviet Union and present-day Belarus, with prolonged periods of exile in Western Europe. Starting out as a journalist, she developed her own nonfiction genre, which gathers a chorus of voices to describe a specific historical moment. Her works include The Unwomanly Face of War (1985), Last Witnesses (1985), Zinky Boys (1990), Voices from Chernobyl (1997), and Secondhand Time (2013). She has won many international awards, including the 2015 Nobel Prize in Literature “for her polyphonic writings, a monument to suffering and courage in our time.”
1992 "There’s something immoral, voyeuristic about peering too closely at a person’s courage in the face of danger/be branded/Fear is more human than bravery/the murder of courage/the definition of politics?mosquito piss but even thinner than that/I brought my truth back in a plastic bag head arms legs all skinned/War has a strange logic of its own

评分诺贝尔文学奖作家的代表作之一,以口述形式记录了各色各样亲历了苏联入侵阿富汗十年战争的人们:军人,护士,心碎的母亲。书名意指当时阵亡的苏联士兵装在封死的锌皮棺材中,而那些士兵大多只是十八九岁的孩子。战争的荒唐残酷,军队的腐败混乱,种种情境如同人间地狱,而这种人间地狱,二十多年来每天都在这个世界上演,如今更是愈演愈烈。我对国际政治所知有限,不敢妄言,也反感任何简单粗暴的断言。愿第三次世界战争永远不来,愿人间再无任何战争。

评分 评分 评分对军人总是有种莫名的亲切感,大概是因为从小在军人堆里长大的缘故吧。 小时候,特别喜欢站在路边,看整齐的军人队列在林荫道上齐步走过,也喜欢和同龄的孩子们玩着关于战争的游戏,每个孩子都争着想当一名英勇的解放军去英勇杀敌。游戏中,孩子们双手模仿着枪的形状,对着另一...
