Himmler’s daughter Gudrun was born in 1929, and the most haunting story
told by the family’s correspondence is the record of the cozy relationship
between a murderous father and his admiring daughter. On the occasion of
Gudrun’s first birthday, Himmler draws the outline of her hand into the “
bang journal” he and Marga kept about Gudrun’s development. Marga writes
to her husband about how a worried Gudru... 阅读全帖 |

发帖数: 3280 | 14 最近才发现，里也有一个文革博物馆，而且搞了一个文革征文活动。读了几篇征文后
发现,绝大多数作者要么站在一个受害人的角度控诉文革，要么完全以一个旁观者的眼
光，看待一个似乎是另一个星球上发生的奇闻异事。
的确，文革时期发生的一桩桩悲剧和荒诞剧在今天的人看来真是匪夷所思，难怪80
、90后们都几乎把文革往事当笑话看。这也不能全怪这些娃娃，因为有关文革的回忆鲜
有触及灵魂般的深刻。
这让我不由得想起了巴金的《随想录》。提到巴金，不能不说他是建立“文革博物
馆”的倡导者，但是很少人注意到，提议建立“文革博物馆”只是《随想录》中很小的
一部分，随想录的意义远不止反思文革和建立文革博物馆。
巴金晚年用其全部人生的感悟倾心创作的《随想录》实质上是一部“忏悔录”，饱
受文革磨难的巴金其实是最有资格控诉的，但是他没有，相反他打开自己心菲，真诚地
忏悔：
“我对自己的表演，也感到恶心，感到羞耻，今天翻看三十年前写的那些话，我还
是不能原谅自己，也不想要求后人原谅我。”
巴金不愧是一个战士，更是一个勇士，他勇于解剖自己而不是控诉别人。那么巴金
