ROAD WORK: AMONG TYRANTS, BEASTS, HEROES, AND ROGUES
Book ID/图书代码： 05000004B08265
English Summary/英文概要： From the #1 New York Times best seller Black Hawk Down to the acclaimed Killing Pablo, Mark Bowden has been praised for his unique, novelistic ability to put his reader in the heat of the story. Road Work collects Bowden’s award-winning nonfiction, from his breakout stories for The Philadelphia Inquirer to his most recent high-profile pieces in The Atlantic. Road Work takes us everywhere from a small town in Rhode Island where one of the largest cocaine rings in history is uncovered, to the Luangwa Valley in Zambia where a bold team of antipoachers fights to save the fate of the black rhinoceros. Bowden’s high-profile look at Saddam Hussein, nominated for a National Magazine Award, shed such new and dramatic light on one of the world’s most notorious figures that it has been optioned for film. And his shocking exposé on the dark art of interrogation, also nominated for a National Magazine Award, offers an insider’s eye into the unique and controversial ways in which we are fighting the war on terrorism. The stories in Road Work are powerfully gripping, elucidating, and often wryly humorous.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 从最初的纽约时报最畅销小说排行榜冠军小说《黑鹰》到后来那部人人交口称赞的《杀人Pablo》，Mark Bowden一直以来都是凭其独特的、使读者能够身临其境融入故事高潮情节的笔法而著称的。《修路》一书收集了Bowden 所著的大大小小得奖作品（都是些非小说类），其中包括他为《费城问讯者报》撰写几篇越狱的文章，当然还有他在《大西洋杂志》上新近发表的几篇轰轰烈烈的文章。《修路》带我们来到了世界各地，它从 罗德艾兰州里的小镇讲起（这座小镇曾经孳生过有史以来最大的可卡因集团），然后又谈到了赞比亚的卢安瓜流域，在那儿，一群反偷猎的勇士们冒着生命危险拼着命要拯救偷猎者枪下的黑犀牛。Bowden曾写过一篇以高姿态审视萨达姆•侯赛的作品，此书获国家杂志奖提名，在书中，他对这位全世界最臭名昭著之一的人物------萨达姆的认识与分析可谓新鲜、深入和戏剧性，现在该作品已被选定要拍摄成电影。他的另一本以盘问理论为中的书，赤裸裸地揭露了这门黑色艺术的让人咋舌的一面，它从业内人士的眼光窥视了我们反恐战争进行方式上独到和非议的一面，当然这本书也得到了国家杂志奖的提名。《“修路”》故事扣人心弦，叙述清晰易懂，且不乏狡黠的幽默。
