The Pastoral Clinic takes us on a penetrating journey into an iconic Western landscape--northern New Mexico's Española Valley, home to the highest rate of heroin addiction and fatal overdoses in the United States. In a luminous narrative, Angela Garcia chronicles the lives of several Hispano addicts, introducing us to the intimate, physical, and institutional dependencies in which they are entangled. We discover how history pervades this region that has endured centuries of material and cultural dispossession, and we come to see its heroin problem as a contemporary expression of these conditions, as well as a manifestation of the human desire to be released from them. Lyrically evoking the Española Valley and its residents through conversations, encounters, and recollections, The Pastoral Clinic is at once a devastating portrait of addiction, a rich ethnography of place, and an eloquent call for a new ethics of care.

真心不喜欢这一类情感丰富的书写模式。
评分好题材,但写法不讨喜。可能是我不了解人类学,但每当看到这些切实的问题被虚无华丽的词汇所掩盖,心中总有点烦躁。作者试图用精神分析法解释社会问题,用种族文化概括群体性行为,这大概也是学术一种,我比较失望。
