內容簡(jiǎn)介:A peaceful, tropical world is the setting for Morning Girl, a simple yet rich glimpse into the lives of a young sister and brother. Morning Girl and Star Boy grapple with timeless, universal issues such as experiencing simultaneous anger and love toward family members and the quest to discover the true self. As all siblings do, these children respond to, play off of, and learn from each other. Precisely where Morning Girl and Star Boy are growing up is not revealed, but it`s clearly a place where the residents have no modern amenities. Living in harmony with nature is a necessary priority here, and--given the descriptive names of the characters--a Native Indian culture seems likely. But not until the epilogue do readers discover that the story takes place in 1492. Suddenly we realize that the strange-looking visitors Morning Girl welcomes to shore are not as harmless as they may appear. The excerpt from Christopher Columbus`s journal provides an ominous footnote: these gentle people, who seem so very much like us, will not be permitted their idyllic existence much longer.
作者簡(jiǎn)介: Michael Dorris is a writer of great talent who also happens to be a father children with fetal alcohol syndrome. His book, The Broken Cord, shared his pain, bewilderment and the sharpness of his love for his son Abel, his first experience with FAS.
Dorris was in Seattle in September 1996 as part of an international conference on fetal alcohol syndrome and he shared is thoughts, words and very soul with an audience who clearly felt they owed him much. His reaction to each person who came up and thanked him, in his own words, was unworthiness that was a shock to many of his admirers. He felt the pain of every parent and wore his pain openly. That the love of a parent of a child with FAS can be so gouging and life changing was made visible by Dorris.
After his book was published, Dorris unwittingly became the symbol of parents of children with FAS/FAE. For seven years I have opened the letters from strangers who are not strangers. I speak for these parents. If you can‘t help their children, make sure it never happens again.
After the death of his son Abel, in a pedestrian accident, Dorris withdrew from the activist circles of FAS to deal with his loss, and to continue to parent through the struggles of his other adopted children with FAS. He (Abel) was lovable, sweet...full of life...
