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.
食人的不只是天灾,作为非虚构作品文学性强得可怕。
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。
评分一個很好的例子,天災往往是人禍。明明孩子是可以避過海嘯的,但卻因為學校對災難應對的疏忽和老師sb而幾乎全死了。之後教育局、校長和唯一倖存的老師都逃避責任,始終沒有承認疏忽。但另一方面,也是日本人那種聽話守紀律的性格害死了自己。作者忍不住表達自己的看法,認為日本需要憤怒、有決斷、敢於打破常規和敢於鬥爭的人。這對中國很有借鑑意義。中國人也一樣,聽話不反抗,能忍耐埋藏憤怒,而且容易好了傷疤忘了疼,得過且過,所以災難才一次又一次重現。人類世界在走下坡路,因為我們依然墨守成規,不願意改變和平年代的安逸思路。但地球已經在報復已經在改變了。。。

评分几乎从头到尾都在流泪 这是今年读过最难过的一本书了
2011年3月是圆圈出生的月份,我忙于跑医院和照顾新生儿,只模糊知道日本发生了很严重的地震和海啸,触发了核泄危机。我沉浸在新手妈妈的兴奋和劳累中,对于“遥远的哭声”完全没有感受,犹记得当时微博上初露端倪的“公知”们忙于普及核辐射的危害,以及讨论日本进口的三文鱼还...

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...
