【禁闻】廖亦武抵德国 新书即将出版

【新唐人2011年7月11日讯】四川异见人士兼作家廖亦武,因揭露当前社会阴暗面,成
为中共关注对像之一,他曾屡次被禁止出国参加海外文化活动。但日前廖亦武成功出
境,逃往德国,他在7月6号抵达柏林。他的两本新书也将在近期于德国和纽约出版。

近年来,多次受海外文化团体邀请出国参加文化活动的廖亦武,一直被中共当局限制出
境,并被多次警告:不得发表批评中共的言论和作品。

他对德国《明镜在线》的记者表示,这次为了能出境,他不得不向中共当局许诺不在海
外出版他的新书《证词》。他认为,这对一个作家而言是一种"无可言状的侮辱",他不
想再被当局当作人质。

廖亦武:"我们生活在一个不正常的国家,这个国家非常邪恶。人要在这种邪恶之下能
够生存下去活下去,有些时候你得放弃自己的尊严,甚至像狗一样(生存)。中国人的
生存秘诀是一方面他是苦难,这种苦难有些时候是自己强加给自己的,更多时候是这个
国家政权的强加,迫使人们这么虚伪生活下去。"

正陪同廖亦武在德国参加一系列活动的独立中文笔会会长廖天琪感叹,这么好的作家在
自己的国家里却不能够发出声音,他的书不能出版,只能在黑市、地摊上流传,这是一
个巨大的悲剧!

廖天琪表示,廖亦武最新的《证词》这本书,就是因为这本书在国外出版,使得他不断
受到当局的骚扰、警告,甚至阻挠他出国参加活动,使得他藏头藏尾,实在没有办法的
情况下来到西方。这本书的原稿已经被德国的文学界给予了极高的评价,比如诺贝尔文
学奖得主赫塔.穆勒,她说这本书完全可以把廖亦武推到诺贝尔文学奖的宝座上。

廖亦武在接受《德国之声》专访时也表示,菲舍尔出版社将会在7月21号正式出版《证
词》。

廖亦武:"以前中国(共)政府一直很'重视'这本书,不准他出版,但我觉得一个作家
眼前和以后的目的,都是追求写作和出版的自由。"

据了解,"六四"后,廖亦武因写下了长篇诗歌作品《大屠杀》,而在1990年入狱四年。
《证词》一书记录了与他一起坐牢的死刑犯、底层的罪犯们,见证了中共国家机器对普
通公民人格的虐待和侮辱。这本书先后被中共当局抄走两次,目前出版的是第三稿。

有报导指出,在过去15年中,廖亦武曾16次被拒绝出境。去年9月在德国政府的斡旋
下,他才得以首次跨出国门参加科隆的文学活动。但回国后,廖亦武随即遭到噤声,警
方多次找他"喝茶",在所谓的敏感时期他还曾「被失踪」。

廖亦武被认为是中国最重要的社会问题作家。他作品的主角大多是被称为社会边缘群体
的人,包括:民工、上访者、妓女、刑事罪犯等等。而他把自己称为:低调的"记忆工
作者",他用文字再现历史和现实的真实。

10年前,大陆的「长江文艺出版社」曾因出版廖亦武的作品《中国底层访谈录》,而被
中宣部下禁令,并遭受巨大经济损失。《南方周末》也因刊登了廖亦武对《中国底层访
谈录》的对话,而发生人事"地震",《南方周末》主编、副主编和编室主任等统统被撤
职。

此后的近10多年来,廖亦武就没能在中国大陆发表过一个字,但他的盗版却一直走俏大
陆地摊,印刷数高居盗版书前列。

近期,他的两新书本书《证词》和《上帝是红色的》将分别在德国和纽约出版。

此外,德国媒体报导说,廖亦武不久后将分别前往美国和澳大利亚交流访问。之后预计
他将留在柏林。

Sichuan-based dissident writer Liao Yiwuwas monitored by the Chinese
Communist Party (CCP)for exposing the dark side of the current Chinese
society.He was forbidden to go abroad to participate in cultural
events.However, recently, Liao successfully fled to Germany.On July 6, he
arrived in Berlin. Two of his new books willsoon be published in Germany
and New York.

In recent years, he was invited by several foreign groupsto participate in
cultural activities.However, Liao was restricted by the CCP from leaving
China.He was repeatedly warned to not criticize the CCP in his works.

He told German "Der Spiegel " that in order to leave China,he had promised
not to publish his new book, "Testimonials".He considers this
an "indescribable humiliation" to a writer.He doesn't want to be held
hostage by the CCP any longer.

Liao Yiwu: "We live in an abnormal state. This country is evil.To survive,
the people sometimes have to give up their dignityand to live like dogs.
Chinese people's secret of life is suffering.However, their suffering is
sometimes imposed by themselves,and more often imposed by the CCP.The CCP
forces people to live with hypocrisy. "

Liao Tianqi, president of Independent Chinese PEN,accompanies Liao Yiwu on
a series of events in Germany.He sighed that such a good writer cannot
speak up in China.His books cannot be published, but only sold on black
market.What a great tragedy!

Liao Tianqi said, "As Liao Yiwu latest book 『Testimonials' ispublished
abroad, he was constantly harassed by authorities,who even prevent him from
going overseas for activities.He had to no choice but to escape to the
West.The book has been highly praised by Germany's literary society.Nobel
Prize winner Herta Muller said thatit may win the Nobel Prize in Literature.

Liao Yiwu told Deutsche Welle in an interview thatFischer Verlag would
publish "Testimonials" on July 21.

Liao Yiwu: "In the past, the CCP has always paid attentionto the book and
did not allow it to be punished.However, I think that a writer's current
and future goalis to pursue writing and publishing freedoms."

After Tiananmen Massacre, Liao Yiwu wrote a long poem"Massacre", which
caused him to be imprisoned for 4 years."Testimonials" records the lives of
inmates and prisoners andshows the CCP's humiliation and abuse of Chinese
citizens.This book's first two drafts were confiscated by the CCP.The one
being published is the third draft.

In the past 15 years, Liao was refused to leave China 16 times.After
Germany's mediation in Sep 2010,he was able to participate in literary
activities in Cologne.However, after returning home, Liao was immediately
silenced,and the police summoned him a few times.During the so-called
sensitive periods, he would "go missing".

Liao Yiwu is one of China's most important social issues writers.Most of
his protagonists are from the marginalized groups,including migrant
workers, petitioners and criminals.Liao calls himself a low-key "memory
worker".He uses his work to portray the history and reality.

10 years ago, Changjiang Literature & Art Publishing
Housepublished "Interviews with the Lower Strata of Chinese Society",which
was banned by the Chinese authorities.As a result, the publisher was
punished and incurred losses.After publishing dialogues from this book by
Liao,many editors at Southern Weekend's were dismissed.

For a decade, Liao wasn't allowed to publish a word in China.However, his
pirated works have been a success,with the highest numbers sold, among all
pirated books.

Recently, two of his books "Testimonials" and "God is Red"will be published
in Germany and New York respectively.

In addition, the German media reported thatLiao would soon visit the U.S.
and Australia.Afterwards, he is expected to stay in Berlin.
