6. Sherman Alexie, You Don't Have to Say You Love Me
《不必说你爱我》谢尔曼·阿列克谢

BBC推荐:6月必读书单

"Salmon-grief" echoes throughout the pages of this sardonic, raw and moving memoir from the Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist. Wild salmon provided physical and spiritual sustenance for the Interior Salish – Alexie's Native American people – for thousands of years. In 1938, five years after the construction of the Grand Coulee Dam in Washington state, they were gone. Alexie's Spokane mother and Coeur d'Alene father, fluent Salish speakers, were the first generation to live entirely without wild salmon. "Poverty was our spirit animal", he writes of growing up on the Spokane reservation. (Credit: Little, Brown)
《不必说你爱我》的作者阿列克谢是普利策奖获得者。这部讽刺、朴实、感人的回忆录字里行间都流露着“对三文鱼的悲伤”。数千年来,野生三文鱼一直是内陆萨利希语族(阿列克谢笔下的印第安人)身体和精神上的食粮。1938年,在华盛顿州的大古力水坝竣工5年后,它们消失了。阿列克谢的妈妈来自斯波坎,父亲来自科伦达,他们操着流利的萨利希语,却是第一代完全不依靠野生三文鱼生存的萨利希人。在斯波坎印第安保留地长大的阿列克谢说,“贫穷就是我们的精神写照。”(来源:利特尔&布朗出版社)
