In one of the most intrepid travelogues in recent memory, Emma Larkin tells of the year she spent traveling through Burma, using as a compass the life and work of George Orwell, whom many of Burma's underground teahouse intellectuals call simply the Prophet.In stirring prose, she provides a powerful reckoning with one of the world's least free countries.
Finding George Orwell in Burma is a brave and revelatory reconnaissance of modern Burma, one of the world's grimmest and most shuttered police states, where the term Orwellian aptly describes the life endured by the country's people. A truer picture of authoritarianism than anyone has written since, perhaps, Orwell himself.

读后感
倪炎元 2012-03-10《中国时报》 以《1984》、《动物农庄》等政治寓言小说传世的英国作家欧威尔，究竟是经历何种特殊的生命体验，才能书写出那种统治老大哥无所不在的恐怖氛围？过往流行的说法，多半指是缘自欧威尔参与西班牙内战中的苦痛记忆，但美国记者埃玛.拉金却企图推翻...
评分书所记录的内容，是一个极佳的纽带，连接奥威尔时代的殖民缅甸与奥威尔语言之下的极权缅甸，值得我们反思帝国主义与极权主义的关联与本质差别。虽然知道缅甸是军人独裁国家，但确实没有深入了解过这个国家的历史与人民生活状况，毕竟在亚洲，远一点有东西朝鲜两朵奇葩竞相争艳...
评分 评分在未看艾玛·拉金的《在缅甸寻找奥威尔》之前，我一直以为奥威尔的反乌托邦思想及著作源自西班牙内战，以及那个时期苏联所表现出的恐怖与残暴，比如阅读《一九八四》，脑海中便浮现出与老大哥形象对应的苏联或与之紧密联系的极权国家，缅甸则从未出现在想象性视野之中。但该书...

極權政治下的文學聚會
评分George Orwll和Burma是卖点，吸引了我的眼球，结果Emma Larkin絮絮叨叨到最后几乎读不下去。不过前两章还是有几节亮点。
评分文笔流畅，超带入性。
评分假借奥威尔之名的“政治宣传册”
评分这本应该是想读很久却一直搁置，真的读起来的时候很快。快来源于：文字简单；全是小故事。然后才发现中文版是王晓渔翻译，但我很怀疑它现在能否再版。 那些受迫害故事，让我想起2666里面那些描述奸杀案的章节。内心受到的冲击，以至于非常难忍，只好迅速翻下去。种种，在这里那里里都在发生的历史的重演。 作者写作这本书是在2004年左右，也即是在素姬还在断断续续under house Arrest期间。重点是以奥威尔的1984和缅甸岁月作为引子，以奥威尔在缅甸任职的时间地点为顺序，找寻他的踪迹。但，显而易见，找到的是一个非常近似于1984社会的缅甸（2004年），propaganda、censorship……。当中也有提到罗兴亚人，多民族国家面临的种种问题。。
