评分 评分不论是急匆匆的翻看 还是慢慢地细读 这都是一部非常精彩的传记 简直就是像小说一样 最贫穷的国家之一 各种机遇 各种逃跑 各种历险 一个黑人女孩 面临死亡、强暴、遣返 但却依然是超模 其他的超模付出的是努力 这多沙漠之花还付出了生命 我们是不是也该更珍惜我们的生活 ...

评分因为喜欢《沙漠之花》这部电影,便找了同名书来看,没想到书比电影更好看。 电影着重于“割礼”,书的内容比较具体,详细的述说了华莉丝.迪里在不同时期的生活状态。因看过电影的缘故,我的注意力没有集中在“割礼”上。 读完,如鲠在喉。好些片段让人揪心。比如:华莉丝通过拍...

Waris Dirie (the name means desert flower) lives a double life - by day she is a famous model and UN spokeswoman on women's rights in Africa, at night she dreams of her native Somalia. Waris, one of 12 children, was born into a traditional family of desert nomads in East Africa. She remembers her early childhood as carefree- racing camels and moving on with her family to the next grazing spot - until it came her turn to meet the old woman who administered the ancient custom imposed on most Somalian girls: circumcision. Waris suffered this torture when she was just five years old. Then, aged 12, when her father attempted to arrange a marriage with a 60 year old stranger in exchange for five camels - she took flight. After an extraordinary escape through the dangerous desert she made her way to London and worked as a maid for the Somalian ambassador until that family returned home. Penniless and speaking little English, she became a janitor in Mc Donalds where she was famously discovered by a fashion photographer. Her story is a truly inspirational and extraordinary self-portrait of a remarkable woman whose spirit is as breathtaking as her beauty.
心情不好的时候 吃吃东西 看看悲伤的书 就会活过来
评分细腻得难过,后来又去看了电影,电影更难过
评分五星不是为了文学价值,但是为了这本书带来的文化冲击,在非洲之角-索马里,导致死亡的割礼,对未成年的性侵犯,极度的男尊女卑还在进行着,最关键是大多数人都是逆来顺受的接受着所谓“传统”,希望更多的人了解那片土地发生的故事,从而为了改变而付出可能的努力,当前我只能通过多推荐这本书努力。
