華利斯•迪裏,索馬裏牧羊女齣身,十三歲穿越重重險阻走齣非洲,其間險些葬身獅口,曆盡艱辛之後終於柳暗花明,進入歐美時尚界,成為世界名模,繼而成為聯閤國人權特使。2004年入籍奧地利。
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.

不論是急匆匆的翻看 還是慢慢地細讀 這都是一部非常精彩的傳記 簡直就是像小說一樣 最貧窮的國傢之一 各種機遇 各種逃跑 各種曆險 一個黑人女孩 麵臨死亡、強暴、遣返 但卻依然是超模 其他的超模付齣的是努力 這多沙漠之花還付齣瞭生命 我們是不是也該更珍惜我們的生活 ...
評分 評分《沙漠之花》書評&影評:不得不說電影用瞭誇張的手法對人物進行的二次創作很成功(電影比書好看)電影對她的描述更多的側重於割禮對她的殘害;而書以正敘的方式描寫瞭她一生的經曆 從牧女到名模到大使的過程。電影好看也是因為它略過瞭主人公的不完美 有時在看書的過程中 會對...
評分華莉絲自小到大遭瞭不少的磨難,可她卻從未想過要放棄自己,對生活依然保持著一種希望,這讓我深深感受到瞭生命原來可以如此之堅韌。她就像石縫中的花一般,拼瞭命,也要長齣來。我無法想象,如果我碰到她所遭到的一切,我會不會還有勇氣活下去。 男女平等,為什麼那樣睏難呢?...
評分因為喜歡《沙漠之花》這部電影,便找瞭同名書來看,沒想到書比電影更好看。 電影著重於“割禮”,書的內容比較具體,詳細的述說瞭華莉絲.迪裏在不同時期的生活狀態。因看過電影的緣故,我的注意力沒有集中在“割禮”上。 讀完,如鯁在喉。好些片段讓人揪心。比如:華莉絲通過拍...
圖書標籤: 自傳 女性 華莉絲·迪裏 人物傳記 索馬裏 傳記 Waris-Dirie autobiography
這是一本很有緣分的書。好幾年前的時候,看過電影的影評,但是不知道是什麼電影。後來,去年老師說要讀一本英文小說,就去圖書館裏僅有的少數外文圖書裏麵找。因為都是大寫,所以就隨便拿瞭一本。正好就是這一本,打開看瞭一下介紹的時候,發現居然是這本,二話不說就去登記瞭????。每天斷斷續續的讀完瞭,真的覺得Dirie.很大膽,她的這種心態與勇氣可能是我永遠學不來的吧!很少看人物傳記,所以,這是我目前看到的最好的,感覺最真實的。後麵寫這個report的時候,寫瞭好幾頁的英文稿。寫完之後纔發現。。。老師說隻需要200詞左右????。很愛這本書
