Iris Chang's best-selling book The Rape of Nanking forever changed the way we view the Second World War in Asia. It all began with a photo of a river choked with the bodies of hundreds of Chinese civilians that shook Iris to her core. Who were these people? Why had this happened and how could their story have been lost to history? She could not shake that image from her head. She could not forget what she had seen.
A few short years later, Chang revealed this "second Holocaust" to the world. The Japanese atrocities against the people of Nanking were so extreme that a Nazi party leader based in China actually petitioned Hitler to ask the Japanese government to stop the massacre. But who was this woman that single-handedly swept away years of silence, secrecy and shame?
Her mother, Ying-Ying, provides an enlightened and nuanced look at her daughter, from Iris' home-made childhood newspaper, to her early years as a journalist and later, as a promising young historian, her struggles with her son's autism and her tragic suicide. The Woman Who Could Not Forget cements Iris' legacy as one of the most extraordinary minds of her generation and reveals the depth and beauty of the bond between a mother and daughter. 24 pages of black-and-white photographs
在这部耗时六年完成的传记中,张盈盈除了回忆女儿36年短暂而光彩的一生外,更是首次就外界关心的张纯如自杀原因做出了说明。“写书的进程,亦是抚平自己心坎伤疗的过程。同时也希望藉由张纯如短暂、传奇、不懈寻求的毕生,给更多人以鼓励。
一位母亲的回忆录 评《张纯如》 10年前读《南京大屠杀》(一位好友传给我的pdf电子版),当时的感觉便是写得如此真实,对于一名美籍华人来说能写出这样的书,真的很不容易。当时不知道的是,在给作者张纯如带来声誉的同时,这本书曾经在国际上掀起波澜,并给作者带来了很多人...
评分原本很想给5星的,同样是身为母亲写与儿女有关,较《给孩子一个间隔年》无论文笔、深度好太多。作者用科学家的严谨把各个事件的日期都标记到令人惊叹的程度。 但是读了过半越来越冷静。作为母亲,作者能够详略得当(有没有春秋笔法就不知道了)从出生到终结叙述女儿的一生,诚...
评分遇见这本书很偶尔,只是看一个豆友的书单里看见,她写着惋惜。那会正好要去当当买书,300元的书啊,于是拿她充数了。 看这本书也很偶然,因为杨绛老师的传记看得很High,于是接下来的书也自然选择了传记。手边只有这本,于是开始了对这个奇异女子的了解。 个人感觉张纯如死是必...
评分还没有读完这本书 我就已经迫不及待的想写些什么来记录我心中的感受。 第一次得知张纯如这个名字实在高中语文课堂上 老师把她当做作文素材人物介绍给了我们。也是从那时起 我得知了这个女子年轻而又不平凡的一生。 她是一个美籍华人 甚至于在写书之前 她几乎从未踏足过...
评分《张纯如-无法忘却历史的女子》,这本书是张纯如母亲为自己女儿写的传记。张纯如是1968年出生的美裔华人,在1998年她30岁的时候写作出版了引起轰动的《南京大屠杀》,向世人揭示了那一段日本一直在掩盖的战争暴行。令人唏嘘的是,2004年36岁的她选择了自杀。 自杀的原因,张纯...
