【禁闻】《毛主席的炼狱》献给中共90年

【新唐人2011年4月27日讯】《纽约时报》签约摄影记者杜斌在香港再出版新书"毛主席
的炼狱"。这本书收集了关于「大跃�时期」的13万文字和150多幅珍贵图画。杜斌表
示，"毛主席的炼狱"再现了那个荒唐而又凄惨的年代。

这本图文并茂的书籍，收集了毛泽东的党内讲话、粮食官员的私人笔记、地方官员的言
行、民间上书党中央的信件、最新披露的秘密档案、亲历者的追忆等文字，并以编年史
的方式呈现出来。再配以「大跃�时期」的宣传画、农民画、艺术家绘画、报刊杂志插
图、摄影照片等为政治服务的作品。从这些历史的碎片中来回眸那饿死数千万中国人的
黑暗年代。

这些碎片和细节折射出那个时代的荒谬和独裁者的暴虐。张戎所着的"毛不为人知的故
事"中写道，在一九五八年「大跃�」中，毛泽东为了让农民老老实实像奴隶一样干
活，给这些人编上号，而不叫他们的名字。

杜斌：「我觉得像这样一个很小很小的细节，让我特别惊讶，也特别震撼，我觉得这就
是毛泽东要把人的这种----名字是人的符号嘛----符号给抹杀了，把人变成工具，变成
牲口一样来使用。」

书中记录的那段历史充斥着荒唐可笑，甚至在今天看来是黑色幽默。《炼狱》引用《人
民画报》报导的内容，说：湖北省麻城县创造了亩产3.6万斤的高产"卫星"。但真相却
是孩子们踩在藏着板凳的水稻上。

其中，刘伯威文章说，公社领导发动群众搞"人造太阳"和"人造风"来催生禾苗。只见试
验田周围百来个群众人人手上捧着个大镜子，光芒四射直往田里照。

《炼狱》还引用罗平汉的文章：为了放卫星，试验田里不仅施加大量肥料，甚至给庄稼
灌狗肉汤，注射葡萄糖。而李凯源文章说，一家手工业社大胆试验用中药炼钢，这些中
药据称可以起到去氧脱硫、调解炭素的作用。

如果说「大跃�」的上半场是狂热和搞笑，下半场就是凄厉和哀嚎。当饥饿席卷中华大
地，毛泽东灌输的共产主义理想瞬间坍塌，人们此时才看到大赤龙张开的血盆大口。

杜斌：「筛选这些故事的过程中，我是特别难过的。难过人的生命太卑贱了。在共产党
的眼里太卑贱了。卑贱的跟一只狗、一只鸡、一只蚂蚁没有区别。有些细节透过我筛选
出来的文字已经能展示出来，共产党政权根本就没有把人民的生命当回事。」

杜斌在《炼狱》中引用刘少奇家乡人写给他的一封信，内容说："刘主席，我们天天在
饿肚子，得了浮肿病还不能说，说了就要挨打饿饭，搞不好就说你是"反党、反三面红
旗"，要送劳改。饿死人只能说是自己病死的。"

而杨继绳的《墓碑》一书也被杜斌引用了一段话，"当年信阳库里有粮10亿多斤，当年
产量29多亿斤，共40亿斤。饥民看着粮库里有粮，也没有人想到抢粮食。有的农民坐在
旁边等着政府开仓放粮，他们坐在粮库旁边喊："共产党，毛主席，救救我们！"有人就
饿死在粮库旁边。"

人吃人的惨剧遍及每个村庄。《炼狱》引述梁志远的文章说，"有时路上死人被人埋
后，一夜就不见尸体了。有些地方，农民家里死了人，为了防止被人扒吃，就守坟多
夜，待尸体腐烂发臭为止。有的吃人家的死人，有的吃自家的死人；人肉有吃熟的，也
有吃生的；有吃死尸的，也有杀吃活人的。"

杜斌表示，《炼狱》这本书的出版正好赶上中共建党九十周年。现在北京的书店里关于
中共党史的书一本接一本的在出版，还有一本书专门写给中学生看的。中共试图美化他
的历史，遇到「文革」和「大跃�」的内容就轻描淡写带过，竭力把它不光彩的那一面
从他的历史里面剔除。而《炼狱》这本书可以说是把残缺的历史补齐，把真实的伤痛呈
现。

"Chairman Mao's Purgatory" - The Reality

Du Bin, a New York Times' signed reporter,published in Hong Kong a new
book, called"Chairman Mao's Purgatory". .This book is about the Great Leap
Forwardand has 130,000 charactersand over 150 valuable pictures.Du Bin
said: "'Chairman Mao's purgatory' reflectsall those ridiculous and
miserable years."

This book in the form of chronicle, records Mao'sspeech within the party,
agricultural officials'private diaries, the behavior of local
authorities,letters from common people to the Central Party,newly revealed
secret documents, witnesses'memories. The book recalls the dark age
whentens of millions of Chinese people starved to death,with historical
posters, farmer paintings, photos,art drawings, newspaper and magazines'
pictures,serving the politics during the Great Leap Forward.

These fragments and details reflect those ridiculousyears and the
dictator's outrage. According toZhang Rong's book "Mao: The Unknown
Story",to make peasants work as slaves during 1950s'Great Leap Forward, Mao
Zedong assignednumbers to them instead of calling their names.

Du Bin said: "I find such a small detail surprisingand shocking. Mao erased
people's nameswhich were their identities andutilized them as tools and
animals."

We can find in the book those ridiculous yearsand black humor when we look
back. "Purgatory"cites China Pictorial's reports: "Macheng Countyin Hubei
Province created a 'satellite' of producing36,000 jin (18,000 kg) of grain
per mu."But actually children were standing on paddy ricepropped with
hidden benches.

According to Liu Bowei's article, officials of people'scommune organized
activities like "man-made sun"and "man-made wind" among people to hasten
thegrowth of rice. Hundreds of people were standingaround experimental
fields with mirrors in hands,making the sunshine reflect into the field.

"Purgatory" cites Luo Pinghan's article: "To launchsatellites, people
applied fertilizers excessively andwatered the rice with dog meat soup and
glucose."Also according to Li Kai's article, a handicraftcommune even made
steel with Chinese medicine,which was believed to remove oxygen, sulfurand
to control carbon content.

The first half of the Great Leap Forward was justcraziness and humor, but
the second half wasa tragedy. When hunger swept the whole country,the
communist ideal implanted by Mao collapsedand at that moment people saw the
red dragonopening its bloody mouth.

Du Bin: "I was sad when choosing the stories,because people were so humble
in the eyesof communist party, as humble as a dog, hen, ant.Some details I
selected can truly reflect the factthat the communist regime doesn't
careabout people's lives at all. "

In "Purgatory", Du Bin cited a letter to Liu Shaoqifrom his fellow
villagers which said: "President Liu,we are starving everyday and
developing edemas.But we couldn't talk about it, otherwise we'll haveno
food, be labeled as "anti-party andagainst the three red banners" and be
sent toforced labor camp. Once a person starves to death,people could only
say that he dies of disease."

Du Bin also cited a paragraph from Yang Jisheng'sbook, 『Tombstone', "There
was over 1 billion jin ofgrain in Xinyang City's warehouse and the
totalstorage is 4 billion jin, with 2.9 billion jin productionthat year.
But not even one famine victimconsidered to steal food, knowing there's
plentyin the warehouse. Some peasants waitedoutside the warehouse for the
governmentto distribute food and shouted:'Communist party, Chairman Mao,
help us!'Some people died at the warehouse."

The tragedy of people eating each other sweptevery village. "Purgatory"
cites Liang Zhiyuan'sarticle, "Sometimes a dead person was buriedbut the
body disappeared overnight. In some areas,to protect dead bodies from being
dug and eaten,peasants watched their family members' gravesfor several
nights until the bodies startedto decompose and putrefy. Some people
atedead bodies from other families and some atedead bodies from their own
families; people atecooked or raw human flesh; some atedead bodies and some
killed and ate live people."

Chinese Communist Party) 90th anniversary.Other books about CCP's history
are coming outone by one in Beijing's bookstores and there iseven one for
middle school students.In these books, CCP tries to glorify its past
andwrites lightly about the Cultural Revolution andthe Great Leap Forward,
trying to removeits dark side from history. But "Purgatory" fillsthe blank
of history and presents the real pains.
