必修第三册　 3 课时作业 16　 THE VALUE OF MONEY Ⅰ. 阅读理解 " (2023·湖南省长沙市模拟) The literary world has a new star. Novelist Abdulrazak Gurnah is the winner of the 2021 Nobel Prize in Literature in recognition of his “ compassionate penetration ( 洞 察 力 ) of the effects of colonialism (殖民主义) and the fate of the refugee (难民)” . Gurnah grew up in Zanzibar, an island off the coast of Tanzania. In 1964, Gurnah was forced to leave for England as a refugee, where he began to reflect on his experiences in a diary and then through stories. Through the years, he wrote 10 novels and stories that explore the suffering caused by war and colonialism. “The thing that motivated the whole experience of writing for me was this idea of losing your place in the world,” Gurnah told The New York Times. His 1994 novel Paradise, which tells the story of a boy growing up in early 20th century Tanzania, marked his breakthrough as a novelist and won the Booker Prize. Afterlives, his most recent work, continues the narrative of Paradise and takes place during the period of German colonialism in Tanzania. Before he retired, Gurnah, 73, was a professor of English and Postcolonial Literatures at the University of Kent in England. Although Gurnah􀆳s first language is Swahili, he adopted English as his literary language. His writing often contains traces of Arabic, Swahili and German, as well.
