December 1937. The Japanese have taken Nanking. A group of terrified schoolgirls hides in the compound of an American church. Among them is Shujuan, through whose thirteen-year-old eyes we witness the shocking events that follow.
Run by Father Engelmann, an American priest who has been in China for many years, the church is supposedly neutral ground in the war between China and Japan. But it becomes clear the Japanese are not obeying international rules of engagement. As they pour through the streets of Nanking, raping and pillaging the civilian population, the girls are in increasing danger. And their safety is further compromised when prostitutes from the nearby brothel climb over the wall into the compound seeking refuge.
Short, powerful, vivid, this beautiful novel transports the reader to 1930s China. Full of wonderful characters, from the austere priest to the irreverent prostitutes, it is a story about how war upsets all prejudices and how love can flourish amidst death.

悲剧的必然性。我们现在站在道德的制高点来评价决策正确与否,但是战争之中的决定哪有对错。幸存者踩着同胞的鲜血和骨肉活下来,他们的存活就变成了他们的原罪。生存和人道主义在战场上相悖,所谓正确的选择永远是无解,这就是战争的残酷性。我痛心于玉墨和她姐妹们的献身,我被巨大的无力感所吞噬。

评分最初的中篇比后来修订的长篇精妙,留下了悬念,令人浮想联翩
评分才知道这部是有长篇、中篇之分的,难怪印象中读过不止一个版本的中文原著。值得称道的是译者把序章和尾声调了个顺序,于是不像中文版那样从一开始就知道谁活着谁死了

如果把“侠/妓”作为一种写作模式来考察,那么在当下时代,它所携带的强烈性别救赎意味将不可避免地被解构。举一个例子:在《虬髯客传》中,红拂投奔李靖时曾慷慨陈词:“丝罗非独生,原托乔木,故来奔耳。”杜光庭无法想到,在一千多年之后,王小波竟以其对“消极自由”的信...
评分 评分过去女性因为依附于男性,她们收入渠道很大程度上并没有不同,唯一不同的是,看她们能附庸上怎样的男性,通过男性的社会经济地位的支撑来确保自己的生活运转,同时为了维持既得利益,不得不严谨的设置各种障碍,来驱逐同性竞争者。 书中,不论是扶桑与国外白人妇女,还是金陵十...
评分《金陵十二钗》是名著《红楼梦》的别名,“金陵十二钗”也是《红楼梦》里太虚幻境“薄命司”里记录的南京十二个最优秀的女子。 严歌苓写了金陵十三钗的故事,虽然与故名故人相去甚远,但我喜欢这个名字与文本精准的贴合。金陵十三钗不是经典名著里最优秀的女子,她们...
