2021 film directed by Ridley Scott

1988年，一个大学刚毕业的男孩站在祖母家的屋顶上抽着烟，望着远处的底格里斯河，对身旁第一次回老家的十二岁弟弟讲起了自己的十二岁，讲起七十年代里那些酷热的夏夜，父母把床垫搬上屋顶，一家三口在河面吹来的凉风中好眠。 他就躺在月光下，说等着瞧吧弟弟，要不了多久，我们的国家就会再次强盛起来。道路平坦宽阔，吊桥闪闪发光，遍地都是五星级酒店；情侣们一窝蜂地飞到巴士拉去度蜜月，小学生在乌尔的神庙前面摆拍，背包客把阿斯卡里的明信片寄回家，夕阳红旅客会把一罐罐的尤苏菲耶蜂蜜塞进行李箱；巴格达将会成为奥运会主办城市，美索不达米亚雄狮队将会赢得世界杯；战争会彻底结束，巴比伦哈特拉尼尼微的遗迹都将免费开放，连安保都不需要。人们将从四面八方涌来，亲眼见证伊拉克的古老与美丽。 十几年后，哥哥失去了音讯，急着去找他的弟弟困在机场，被入境检查员反复盘问：你哥哥是什么人？你要去伊拉克做什么？ 他想起最后一次见到哥哥时的样子，他像个巨人一样靠坐在塑料花园椅上，把肱二头肌上看不见的尘屑掸掉，然后抬起脸，目光扫过向西飞驰的云彩，像是在看一出穿越库尔德天空的出埃及记。他看起来更像一个向世界施加力量的生灵，而不是相反。原来，这样的一个人也会消失。 在所有的大地上，人们正在四面八方地涌来和死去。 ✈️ 其他人也会决心在新的一年里多吃蔬菜、跑步和阅读，而从不担心下个月会破产、宵禁或断电吗? 其他人也会在电视上无声地看棒球赛吗，看到运动员长时间悬停在空中时也会想到尼金斯基吗? 其他人也会向别人隐瞒爱人吗，因为这要比向自己隐瞒自己容易得多? 其他人也会想上帝有没有在下周为自 己安排一场巴士车祸吗，在面对无可名状的命运时? 其他人也曾见过一个名叫热纳维耶芙的女孩吗，一条白金色的马尾沿着她的脊背垂到腰际? 其他人也会暗自写作吗，在被世界抹除之前把自己的存在用白纸黑字记下来? 其他人也以为自己是真实的人吗，经受着真实的生活，以及音乐会中真实的一声枪响? 一个正陷于和著名作家的忘年恋并逐渐成长为有抱负小说家的年轻白人女性助理编辑有可能理解一位想转机去库尔德寻找失联哥哥却被英国移民官扣留在机场的中年伊拉克裔男性经济学家吗？ ✈️ 《不对称》由三个看似相互独立的部分组成，探讨了激发并持续影响人际关系的诸多不对称：性别、年龄、权力、才华、财富、声明、地域、种族、宗教……与正义。 第一部分名为“愚蠢”，以第三人称讲述了一位二十出头的美国助理编辑爱丽丝与比她年长四十五岁的著名作家埃兹拉·布雷泽的“爱情”故事。 第二部分名为“疯狂”，以第一人称回忆了伊拉克裔美国经济学家阿马尔的生平。他此行飞往伦敦，是为了转机去库尔德斯坦，寻找失联的哥哥，却意外地被移民官员扣留，在希思罗机场的一间拘留室里度过了2008年的最后一个周末。 第三部分是布莱泽的访谈，我们将从中领会整本书最核心的秘密，角色之间的关系也将袒露出前所未有的含义——“一场坠入兔子洞的未知之旅。翻过全书的最后一页，读者会忍不住回到开头，反复体会哈利迪是怎样一次又一次地颠覆整个故事的。”（《华盛顿邮报》) “哈利迪几乎同时写下了一部匿名的纪实小说，一部思想小说和一部关于政治参与的元小说。”（《纽约时报书评》）同时，《不对称》也是一个人蒙着面纱的肖像——一个决心超越她的出身、她的特权、她的天真的人。 “在她的笔下，‘不对称’不只存在于野心与成就之间、年轻女性与年长男性之间，更存在于西方与其他地区，以及国家与个人之间，由此提出了关于想象力和共情能力的局限性的问题：我们能否跨越性别、种族、国籍和权力的界限来理解彼此；一个人愿意为理解素不相识的人付出多少努力，以及可以在多大程度上做到和做不到这一点。”（《纽约客》） 2018年，《不对称》英文版的出版被媒体形容为一场“文学事件”，风靡一时，有心的读者会发现，它的知名很大程度上还是因为metoo运动的热潮，以及知名老作家和女文青之间的八卦。然而，从阅读中我们很容易便能意识到：书中人与人的关系远非简单的权力关系可以概括，而是息息相关、休戚与共；自传性也并非噱头，而是以整个现实世界与这部小说互文，从而拓宽了叙事的景深；而且，莉萨·哈利迪也志不在此—— “你在写这个吗，我们的事？” “没有。” “那你在写什么？” “其他的人。” …… 无论如何，《不对称》都迫使我们成为一个更好的读者，一个更积极的观察者。

When George Carlin is asked which HBO concert is his favorite, his answer is always, "Jammin' In New York." The reasons are several: It was his first HBO show done live; it was the first he had done in his hometown, New York City; and it was the largest audience he had ever worked before: 6,500.But Carlin says it also represented a newfound sophistication in his writing. "It was the first time I had done truly extended pieces consisting of separate sections all flowing together. It was a big leap for me."The show, taped at the Paramount Theater in Madison Square Garden and winner of the 1992 CableACE Award, is a perfect blend of biting social commentary and more gently-observed observational pieces.

Twenty-two-year-old Skeeter has just returned home after graduating from Ole Miss. She may have a degree, but it is 1962, Mississippi, and her mother will not be happy till Skeeter has a ring on her finger. Skeeter would normally find solace with her beloved maid Constantine, the woman who raised her, but Constantine has disappeared and no one will tell Skeeter where she has gone. Aibileen is a black maid, a wise, regal woman raising her seventeenth white child. Something has shifted inside her after the loss of her own son, who died while his bosses looked the other way. She is devoted to the little girl she looks after, though she knows both their hearts may be broken. Minny, Aibileen’s best friend, is short, fat, and perhaps the sassiest woman in Mississippi. She can cook like nobody’s business, but she can’t mind her tongue, so she’s lost yet another job. Minny finally finds a position working for someone too new to town to know her reputation. But her new boss has secrets of her own. Seemingly as different from one another as can be, these women will nonetheless come together for a clandestine project that will put them all at risk. And why? Because they are suffocating within the lines that define their town and their times. And sometimes lines are made to be crossed. In pitch-perfect voices, Kathryn Stockett creates three extraordinary women whose determination to start a movement of their own forever changes a town, and the way women—mothers, daughters, caregivers, friends—view one another. A deeply moving novel filled with poignancy, humor, and hope, The Help is a timeless and universal story about the lines we abide by, and the ones we don’t.

这是一位心理治疗师的回忆录，讲述了发生在诊室中的故事。在这个小小的密闭空间里，人们会展现出最真实、最脆弱的一面；也是在这里，人们获得了陪伴和倾听，也获得了宝贵的觉察、成长与改变。 在书中，我们会看到四个来访者的故事，他们是： 一个四十多岁、事业成功、自以为是，认为身边所有人都是蠢货的好莱坞制片人； 一个三十多岁、刚刚新婚就被诊断出患有绝症，时日不多的大学女教师； 一个六十九岁、离过三次婚，感觉孤独绝望，声称生活再不好转就要在七十岁生日当天自杀的老太太； 一个二十多岁、有原生家庭创伤和酗酒问题，在爱情中频频受挫的姑娘。 同时，书中还有第五个寻求帮助的人，那就是治疗师自己。她是一个单身的职场妈妈，四十多岁时遭遇失恋，几乎崩溃。有朋友对她说“或许你该找个人聊聊”，于是她也给自己找了一位心理治疗师。当她切换到来访者的位置，坐到另一位心理治疗师的沙发上诉说自己内心的脆弱与悲伤，就更能感受到心理治疗为何具有治愈和改变的力量。 这本书从治疗师和来访者的双重视角展现了心理治疗的过程，让我们发现：无论身份背景有多相异，人类面对的烦恼其实都相通——爱与被爱、遗憾、选择、控制、不确定、死亡，这些都是我们身而为人必须共同学习面对的议题。我们在现实生活中所遭遇的切肤之痛和生命困境，都能在这本书中得到共鸣、找到希望。 本书是2019年美国众多媒体推荐的心理自助书——它荣登《纽约时报》《时代》《人物》《综艺》等媒体年度必读书榜单，是美国亚马逊当年度销售TOP10图书、哈佛商学院年度推荐图书，它的有声书版本也是当年Audible非虚构类有声书第一名。刚上市一个月，这本书就冲上了美国亚马逊图书总榜TOP100和《纽约时报》畅销榜；出版两年来，已经在全球授权了四十多个语言版本，总销量超过七十万册，并且正在拍摄电视连续剧，由曾出演《绝望主妇》的知名演员伊娃·朗格利亚担纲主演。 享誉全球的心理学泰斗、美国斯坦福大学精神病学终身荣誉教授欧文·亚隆为这本书写下推荐语：“我读心理治疗的书超过半个世纪了，但从来没见过这样的书：这么大胆、这么直白、这么多好故事，又这么深刻而引人入胜。” 国内知名心理学家李松蔚为这本书担任专业审校，并写下推荐序：“读这本书的过程，就是在灵魂的方寸之地一寸寸探索。越往下，越是晦暗幽深，于无声处听惊雷。”

<b>In her own words, Ruth Bader Ginsburg offers an intimate look at her life and career, through an extraordinary series of conversations</b><b> with the head of the National Constitution Center.</b><br /><br />This remarkable book presents a unique portrait of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, drawing on more than twenty years of conversations with Jeffrey Rosen, starting in the 1990s and continuing through the Trump era. Rosen, a veteran legal journalist, scholar, and president of the National Constitution Center, shares with us the justice's observations on a variety of topics, and her intellect, compassion, sense of humor, and humanity shine through. The affection they have for each other as friends is apparent in their banter and in their shared love for the Constitution--and for opera.<br /><br />In <i>Conversations with RBG</i>, Justice Ginsburg discusses the future of <i>Roe v. Wade</i>, her favorite dissents, the cases she would most like to see overruled, the #MeToo movement, how to be a good listener, how to lead a productive and compassionate life, and of course the future of the Supreme Court itself. These frank exchanges illuminate the steely determination, self-mastery, and wit that have inspired Americans of all ages to embrace the woman known to all as "Notorious RBG."<br /><br />Whatever the topic, Justice Ginsburg always has something interesting--and often surprising--to say. And while few of us will ever have the opportunity to chat with her face-to-face, Jeffrey Rosen brings us by her side as never before. <i>Conversations with RBG</i> is a deeply felt portrait of an American hero.
