On 11 March 2011, a massive earthquake sent a 120-foot-high tsunami smashing into the coast of north-east Japan. By the time the sea retreated, more than 18,500 people had been crushed, burned to death, or drowned.
It was Japan’s greatest single loss of life since the atomic bombing of Nagasaki. It set off a national crisis, and the meltdown of a nuclear power plant. And even after the immediate emergency had abated, the trauma of the disaster continued to express itself in bizarre and mysterious ways.
Richard Lloyd Parry, an award-winning foreign correspondent, lived through the earthquake in Tokyo, and spent six years reporting from the disaster zone. There he encountered stories of ghosts and hauntings. He met a priest who performed exorcisms on people possessed by the spirits of the dead. And he found himself drawn back again and again to a village which had suffered the greatest loss of all, a community tormented by unbearable mysteries of its own.
What really happened to the local children as they waited in the school playground in the moments before the tsunami? Why did their teachers not evacuate them to safety? And why was the unbearable truth being so stubbornly covered up?
Ghosts of the Tsunami is a classic of literary non-fiction, a heart-breaking and intimate account of an epic tragedy, told through the personal accounts of those who lived through it. It tells the story of how a nation faced a catastrophe, and the bleak struggle to find consolation in the ruins.
Richard Lloyd Parry was born in north-west England, and has lived since 1995 in Tokyo, where he is the Asia Editor of The Times newspaper of London. He has reported from twenty-eight countries, including Afghanistan, Iraq and North Korea. In 2005, he was named the UK's foreign correspondent of the year. He has also written for Granta, the New York Times and the London Review of Books.
海啸亲历者们的回忆让我潸然泪下
评分海啸亲历者们的回忆让我潸然泪下
评分对去个体化责任的洞悉,虽是老调,但结合东日本大事件及本书涉及的后续事件,则更令人相信这不关乎右派,或是保守主义,而是植根于文化,乃至语言之中的。喜欢作者对日语结构的解构分析,或许是个索绪尔信徒。
评分是部窺一斑而見全豹的作品 文筆極佳 多元的視角 沒有非黑即白。最後落腳點在地理環境 制度 以及文化上 兼及日本當下的政治。求穩求全不求變 聲譽和秩序壓倒事實--中日在這點上也算共通。作者用domineering assertiveness形容中國 實在太恰當。都是面子大於裏子的文化。但求變與求穩這兩種 cultural ideology背後的動因如果是自然环境 那書中呈現的問題會有解嗎。

“有时候,即使我们在现场挖掘寻找尸体,也会聊天,也会为了什么事情大笑。但紧接着,我们又会因为有人看见我们的笑容而感到不自在。”———这是整本书让我觉得最触动的文字。 欧美文化宣扬个性情绪的表达,亚洲更多的是克制与隐忍。作者也在书中表达“我受够了日本人接受现实...
评分看这本书的过程其实很艰难,首先是感情上的冲击,一些学生家长说的话,就是那种让人心里非常难受的真实。其次是阅读顺序从时间线上来讲有些过于跳跃,作者是优秀的记者,观察者视角非常容易让人进入到他所见的情景中去,但是从一整本书的个人观感出发,对一个事件的还原,采用...
评分一句日本谚语说:不幸可能成为通向幸福的桥梁。 我想那是因为他们没有经历过大川小学家长的处境。 《巨浪下的小学》讲述的是2011年3月11日日本发生的9.0级特大地震,之后引发了巨大海啸,并且造成严重的核泄漏,这本书主要围绕着海啸灾难展开,在自然灾害中,学校本应该是最安...
评分原文发表于《南方人物周刊》 从东京出发,搭乘新干线一路向北,不到两小时,便可到达仙台市。仙台市是日本宫城县首府,也是东北地区最大的城市。与繁华的、灯红酒绿的现代化大都会东京不同,仙台市及其所在的东北地区,似乎代表着现代的反面。那里地域广阔,但人口稀少,有着令...
