之前看过电影,比较震惊。书的内容更纤细些,但我想说的不是华利斯迪里童年时为了食物、水源过着整日疲于奔跑的艰苦生活,不是割礼对非洲大多数女性残忍的毒害,也不是华利斯成为名模的尖酸成长历程。而是,书中从11章开始华利斯对神的称呼,从前十章中的安拉改成之后的上帝,...
评分 评分先看的电影,非常喜欢,然后开始读文字。 尤其推荐给想要改变自己命运的女性,Waris那种不屈服于命运的精神值得我们学习。 曾经看过关于割礼的报道文学,Waris的亲身经历给了我一种更为直观的感受,在这个世界上,还有无数忍受痛苦和压迫的女性,比起她们,我们真的是幸福和自...
评分《沙漠之花》书评&影评:不得不说电影用了夸张的手法对人物进行的二次创作很成功(电影比书好看)电影对她的描述更多的侧重于割礼对她的残害;而书以正叙的方式描写了她一生的经历 从牧女到名模到大使的过程。电影好看也是因为它略过了主人公的不完美 有时在看书的过程中 会对...

图书标签: 自传 女性 华莉丝·迪里 人物传记 索马里 传记 Waris-Dirie autobiography
Waris Dirie leads a double life -- by day, she is an international supermodel and human rights ambassador for the United Nations; by night, she dreams of the simplicity of life in her native Somalia and the family she was forced to leave behind. Desert Flower, her intimate and inspiring memoir, is a must-read for anyone who has ever wondered about the beauty of African life, the chaotic existence of a supermodel, or the joys of new motherhood. Waris was born into a traditional Somali family, desert nomads who engaged in such ancient and antiquated customs as genital mutilation and arranged marriage. At twelve, she fled an arranged marriage to an old man and traveled alone across the dangerous Somali desert to Mogadishu -- the first leg of an emotional journey that would take her to London as a house servant, around the world as a fashion model, and eventually to America, where she would find peace in motherhood and humanitarian work for the U.N. Today, as Special Ambassador for the U.N., she travels the world speaking out against the barbaric practice of female genital mutilation, promoting women's reproductive rights, and educating people about the Africa she fled -- but still deeply loves. Desert Flower will be published simultaneously in eleven languages throughout the world and is currently being produced as a feature film by Rocket Pictures UK.
豆瓣上面没有这个电影 刚看完了 震撼有 可惜拍摄手法有点儿烂
评分第一本看完的英文书 第一本看完的英文人物传记 上下班的路上都在看 很佩服这样的人生 从索马里草原到超模到联合国反女性割礼的人权主义者 这样的人生堪比小说
评分说不清是事件本身的震撼还是叙事者的文笔了……很动人……
评分the book show me the whole world of fashion, but that's not the point, it is Waris Dirie's life stories which consisted of dangers and struggles and finally she became stronger that touch me. Not only did she made life abundant and happy but she also helped a lot of other African women to get rid of the suffering of circumcision.
