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.

評分 評分“多一个人看奥威尔，就多了一分自由的保障。”这句印在中文版《一九八四》封面上的话，很好地说明了奥威尔的力量所在。读过《一九八四》的人们，都会惊叹于其中精确的预言，也会产生好奇：奥威尔为什么具有预言能力？ 这个问题可能不止一个答案。虽然很多知识分子在 1956 年赫...

All authoritarian regimes act alike, all authoritarian regimes fear alike - its own people.
评分終於看完瞭！如詩如畫。
评分Not a big fan of Orwell, however, Emma Larkin only used him as a compass to reorganize her own journey of discovering this country, to find out the secret life of Eric Blair in his Burmese days, the reality about Burma. She expressed what the Burmese people could not express themselves, maybe a sad repetition of Orientalism?
评分假藉奧威爾之名的“政治宣傳冊”
