An anonymous Iraqi woman has become the first blog author to be in the running for a big literary prize for a book published between hard covers.
Baghdad Burning,by a 26-year-old author who has won an international readership under the pen name Riverbend,is longlisted for the ?30,000 Samue Johnson award.In the list,
announced today,she is up against 18 other books including Alan Bennett's latest bestseller,histories of the cold war and the great wall of China ,and a biography of the 19-century cookbook author Mrs Beeton. The Guardian carried an extract from Riverbend's title last summer.
Riverbend began the blog with the words:
I'm female,Iraqi and 24,I survived the war.
That's all you need to know. It's all that matters these days anyway."
University-educated Riverbend worked as a computer programmer before the invasion which began on March 20,2003.
She lost her job,she told her readers, when it became too dangerous for Iraqi women to travel to work alone.
近日,一位无名的伊拉克女性知识分子成为了首位入围英国著名的文学奖 Samuel Johnson提名的博客作者.入围这个奖的其他18本书,包括Alan Bennett's 最新的畅销书,冷战的历史,中国的长城和 19世纪食谱的作者 Mrs Betton的传记等等.
<<燃烧的巴格达>>文章的作者是一位笔名是"河湾",只有26岁的妇女,但她的读者已经遍及世界各地.
在她的博客的开头这样写到: "我是女性, 在伊拉克,24岁.我是战争的幸存者.这是你所要知道的全部内容.无论如何,这是目前最重要的事情."
受过大学教育的"河湾",在2003年3月20日遭到入侵前曾是一名电脑程序员.在博客中,她告诉她的读者,她失去了工作,因为在但是伊拉克妇女单独出门上班是很危险的事情.
所以,战争是非常可怕的事,是一切噩梦的开始,珍惜和平,享受和平的生活吧.
