有本很棒的书叫《War》,作者是写《完美风暴》的 Sebastian Junger。书里跟拍了在阿富汗最危险地区作战的士兵。我写过一篇文章摘录了我最喜欢的几个段落,不过我记得的那段是……
There's a great book called War by Sebastian Junger, the author of the perfect storm. It follows soldiers fighting in the most dangerous parts of Afghanistan. I wrote a post quoting some of my favorite sections but the one I remember…
Sebastian Junger 写的《War》这本书。我不记得哪一页了但这无所谓,书是真不错。James Galbraith 的《The Predator State》可能也有点这意思。哦还有 Andrés Reséndez 的《A Land So Strange - The Epic Journey of……
The book "War" by Sebastian Junger. I don't know the page but that doesn't matter, it is a good book.James Galbraith - The Predator State maybe a bit. Oh and Andrés Reséndez - A Land So Strange - The Epic Journey of…
Sebastian Junger 的《War》那本书非常值得一读。我是看了它之后才去看的纪录片《雷斯特雷波》(我也强烈推荐)。读完后,我在 Goodreads 上写下了对 Junger 这本书以及他对男人与战争的看法的评价:……
The book, "War," from Sebastian Junger is well worth a read. I read it before seeing "Restrepo" (which I also recommend). On Goodreads, I wrote this about Junger's book and his take on men and war after finishing it:…
…Outside of the bases in Afghanistan, there is not one square meter of ground that is "owned" by the coalition. That is almost 100% false. For example, read the on-the-ground account in Junger's book War (and the related documentary Resprepo). The whole aim of the Restrepo outpost was to control entry to the Korengal Valley, and take and hold control of the ground. It kind of worked for a short period…
"Yeah, the whole article, subject matter, and journey he explores is American." and yet it's universal. By training Junger is a anthropologist and if you read "War" you'll see the stories and themes he explains can be applied equally from Roman to the modern warrior.

我对 Junger 的了解更多来自他的几本书 ——《完美风暴》、《烈火》、《War》。他的文风扣人心弦,用细致入微的细节让故事跃然纸上,而且每章结尾往往极具情感冲击力。他说过自己是在模仿作家 John MacPhee 的风格,后者能够……
I know Junger more from his books -- The Perfect Storm, Fire, War. His style is gripping, with little details that bring the story to life, and the chapters often end with an emotional punch. He has said he is following the pattern of author John MacPhee, who could…

……在阿富汗的基地之外,联军“占领”的土地连一平米都没有。这几乎完全是扯淡。举个例子,去读读 Junger 在《War》里的前线实录(以及相关的纪录片《雷斯特雷波》)。设立雷斯特雷波前哨基地的全部目的,就是为了控制科伦加尔山谷的入口,去占领并守住阵地。在短时间内其实还挺奏效的……

“对啊,整篇文章、题材和他探讨的历程全都是美国视角的。” 但它同时又是普适的。Junger 受过人类学家的专业训练,要是你读过《War》,就会发现他讲述的故事和主题放在从古罗马士兵到现代战士身上全都通用。[0] http://www.amazon.com/WAR-Sebastian-Junger/dp/B0085RZFDC
