اورورا

Rate this book
رمان «اورورا» بررسی ریشه‌ی فلاکت و بدبختی عصر ماست؛ مطالبه‌ی عدالت و اقدام عملی‌ست. توصیف دقیق از سرمایه‌داری و خوف و هراسِ مرتبط با آن و سوسیالیسم امیدبخش است.
استفاده از برشت و موتزارت به‌عنوان یک «راوی یونانی» به خوبی عمل کرده و در جاهایی که برای لحظه‌ای واقعیت غیرقابل تحمل می‌شود، داستان با شوخ‌طبعی،‌ طنز گزنده و بذله‌گویی پیش می‌رود.
شخصیت «هانس جی» به‌عنوان نماد کاپیتالیسم و امپریالیسم، چیزی بیشتر از یک عکس بریده‌ی مقوایی است: او کسی‌ست که نمی‌تواند ببیند و نمی‌خواهد ببیند که کیست، اما اورورا و دیگران مجبورش می‌کنند یا واقعیت آنچه مرتکب شده و آنچه می‌توانسته باشد رودررو شود.

André Vltchek (Russian: Андре Влчек, [ɐnˈdrɛ ˈvɫ̩t͡ɕɛk], December 29, 1963 – September 22, 2020) was a Soviet-born American political analyst, journalist, and a filmmaker. Vltchek was born in Leningrad but later became a naturalized U.S. citizen after being granted asylum there in his 20s. He lived in the United States, Chile, Peru, Mexico, Vietnam, Samoa, and Indonesia.

Vltchek covered armed conflicts in Peru, Kashmir, Mexico, Bosnia, Sri Lanka, Congo, India, South Africa, East Timor, Indonesia, Turkey, and the Middle East. He traveled to more than 140 countries, and wrote articles for Der Spiegel, Japanese newspaper The Asahi Shimbun, The Guardian, ABC News and the Czech Republic daily Lidové noviny. From 2004, Vltchek served as a senior fellow at the Oakland Institute.

Commenting on Vltchek's book Oceania, published in 2010, American linguist Noam Chomsky said that it evoked "the reality of the contemporary world" and that "He has also not failed to trace the painful — and particularly for the West, shameful realities to their historical roots".
