From the internationally bestselling author of Mornings in Jenin, a novel about four generations of powerful Palestinian women in Gaza.
Violently pushed from their ancient farming village of Beit Daras, a Palestinian family tries to reconstitute itself in a refugee camp in Gaza. The men here, those who have escaped prison or the battlefields, worry over making ends meet, tend their tattered pride, join the resistance. The women are left to be breadwinners and protectors, too. Nazmiyeh is the matriarch, the center of a household of sisters, daughters, granddaughters, whose lives threaten to spin out of control with every personal crisis, military attack, or political landmine. Her brother’s granddaughter Nur is stuck in America; her own daughter’s son, traumatized in an Israeli assault, slips into another kind of exile; her daughter has cancer and no access to medicine. Their neighbor, the Beekeeper’s wife, will extract the marijuana resin to shrink her tumor, but it is also Nazmiyeh’s large heart and zest for life that heals, that will even call Nur back from the broken promise of America and set her on a new path. All Nazmiyeh’s loved ones will return to her, and ultimately journey further, to that place between the sky and water where all is as it once was, and where all will meet again.
Born of a troubling history that continues to rage forth and claim its dead, The Blue Between Sky and Water is a novel of survival and of the vivid, powerful women who manage to enlarge and enliven the everyday. It is a novel for our time—and one that is also timeless.
虽然是关于巴以冲突的小说,看完却觉得异常治愈。主角是饱受战争折磨的几代人,尤其是女人,小说展现的却是她们在苦难中不屈不挠、坚强、乐观、热爱生活的一面。故事以巴勒斯坦活捉一个以色列士兵成功换取1000名巴勒斯坦政治犯回家结尾。“We were used to being the losers.So the small vitories were intoxicating, and all paused their lives to celebrate.”人物性格刻画非常成功,各具特色,我最喜欢的是在任何绝望情况下都还能口无遮拦地开黄腔、内心无比强大的Nazmiyeh,是她凝聚起了流离失所的家人们。最愤怒的情节是Nazmiyeh被犹太士兵轮奸的那段。最同情的是内心最支离破碎的Nur。
评分从四十年代以色列进攻巴勒斯坦导致的流离失所开始,一直居住在难民营多半个世纪的一大家族的命运。小说并没有描绘那些血腥的战争场面,也没有怨声载道地控诉战争的残酷;从那些日常生活的描写让人觉得仿佛普通人的生活,唯一不同的就是时常发生的意外和离别......
