PAY NO HEED TO THE ROCKETS: PALESTINE IN THE PRESENT TENSE
Book ID/图书代码： 11908518C00010
English Summary/英文概要： Across Palestine, from the Allenby Bridge and Ramallah, to Jerusalem and Gaza, Marcello Di Cintio has met with writers, poets, librarians, booksellers and readers, finding extraordinary stories in every corner. Stories of how revolutionary writing is smuggled from the Naqab Prison, and about what it is like to write with only two hours of electricity each day. Stories from the Gallery Café, whose opening three thousand creative intellectuals gathered to celebrate; and the lost generations of stories contained within the looted books that sit in Israel s National Library.
Pay No Heed to the Rockets offers a window into the literary heritage of Palestine that transcends the narrow language of conflict, revealing a humanity often unreported. Paying homage to the memory of literary giants like Mahmoud Darwish and Ghassan Kanafani and the contemporary authors whom they continue to inspire, this evocative, lyrical journey shares both the anguish and inspiration of Palestine today.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 一位获奖记者在巴勒斯坦丰富的文化和文学遗产中穿行， 为该国的生活提供了独特的视角。
在整个巴勒斯坦，从以色列的Allenby桥和拉马拉，到耶路撒冷和加沙，马塞洛•迪辛蒂奥(Marcello Di Cintio)会见了作家、诗人、图书管理员、书商和读者，在每个角落都找到了一个个非凡的故事。这些革命故事是如何从纳卡布监狱偷运出来的，每天只有两个小时的电用来写作的感觉是什么样的。来自画廊咖啡馆的故事，3000名创意知识分子聚集在咖啡馆庆祝开业;在以色列国家图书馆被洗劫的书籍中，中包含着几代失落的故事。
本书提供了一扇了解巴勒斯坦文学遗产的窗口，它超越了限定的冲突语言，揭示了一个经常未被报道的人性。这段令人回味的抒情之旅，不仅和我们享了巴勒斯坦今天的痛苦和鼓舞人心的事物, 也表达作者了对如，马哈穆德•达威什(马哈穆德•达威什)和加桑•卡纳法尼(Ghassan Kanafani)等文学巨匠，以及他们不断激励的当代作家的敬意。(Sandy)
