1、the city of murdered women
Marie Clarie上的文章,Eve Ensler(就是knowing在地毯店碰见的Vagina Monologues的作者)写的,讲的是墨西哥小城Ciudad Juarez过去10年超过1000名妇女被强奸被杀以及失踪的事。我一看,电光火石间想起亦老太的《这双手虽然小》也有这段,看来文学还是源于生活的。可这报道真叫人生气,都持续了10年,凶手居然还没找到,听听该国司法部长怎么说来着,“When a woman goes missing, the parents will tell you she was practically a saint. But then we find that she was out dancing every night。”我呸,这TMD还是人话吗

“Esther and I go to Casa Amiga, which bears the burden of Juarez's terrible secret. I hear about a young woman named Brenda. Then I hear a second story about a young lady named Brenda. They are different women - one survived, one died - but I soon realise that Juarez is a world of Brenda. Sometimes, their bones turn up in car parks; sometimes, their bodies are never found.”
