Book ID/图书代码: 11701213B59902

English Summary/英文概要: A poignant description of Cambodia, Laos & Vietnam in 1950, with all their beauty, gentleness, grandeur and intricate political balance intact - Restores this lost world, like a phoenix, from the ashes of the Vietnam war and its aftermath - shows the Vietnamese guerilla movement in its infancy, ranged against the French colonial powers, and the early affects of imported Western materialism - a best-seller when first published, and venerated by all the Saigon-based war correspondents in the ’70s - inspired Graham Greene to go to Vietnam and write The Quiet American

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 本书对1950年的柬埔寨,老挝和越南描述深刻,包括他们的美丽、温和、庄严和错综复杂的政治之间的完整的平衡——还原这个迷失的世界,像一只凤凰,从越南战争的灰烬和余波中重生。它揭示了越南游击队正处于起步阶段,反对法国殖民以及早期西方进口物质对他们的影响。当这本畅销书首次在70年代发表时,获得了所有西贡战地记者的崇敬。格雷厄姆·格林也因此前往越南触发灵感而写的《沉静的美国人》(The Quiet American)。(LNL & CK)

He has also written thirteen novels. Lewis regards his life’s major achievement to be the reaction to an article written by him entitled Genocide in Brazil, published in 1968.
