推薦序一

 

屬於你我,101個不同的真香港故事

 

——沈旭暉,國立中山大學政治所副教授

 

近年來,隨著香港進入「美麗新世界」,愈來愈多香港人開始追憶舊日情懷,重建本土歷史故事。 也許,這些都是源於我們面對消逝的恐懼,那些伴你我成長的建築逐一拆卸,唱遍流行歌曲的明星北上發展,草根文化漸漸被中產價值觀取代......失去的,不只是香港舊日回憶,因為這些記憶,都是香港人之為香港人身分認同的重新敘述。

 

故此,我們開始翻閱「香港」,這本有許多不同人持續撰寫的書本。我們拿起本來無甚興趣的學術專著,像知名的《香港簡史》、《香港:大英帝國的終章》等,多從開埠以來談到主權移交的歷史大事, 掌握了香港歷史的大體面貌。但那些敘事仿佛欠缺了在地的血肉,側重政治,我們看見香港,卻感受不到背後的靈魂,好像香港人不在這些敘述之內。

 

香港,不止政治大事,還有更多屬於文化、物質以至草根庶民的日常生活,一構成了骨骼的血肉。勇先筆下的《消失的記憶:101個即將遺忘的香港故事》,正為我們提供了非學術書寫以外,香港人可以具體感知的事物框架,讓我們從這101 篇文章,再度追憶舊時仍能「舞照跳,馬照跑」的日子,這些,才是真正讓我們發自內心說,「我係香港人」的理由。 

 

《消失的記憶:101 個即將遺忘的香港故事》的內容並非沒有涉及香港歷史,反之,這101篇文稿的主題,全部都從側面折射香港變遷的過程,作者能夠以小見大,諸多日常事物觀察出香港的今昔差異,行文極具「港式風格」,充斥許多香港人的InsideJoke、網路潮語,都讓我們會心微笑,讀來輕鬆卻又沉重。人對周星馳「星仔、星爺和周生」的三個稱呼,道出由電視台親切的星仔,登上電影大銀幕無厘頭的星爺,以至導演兼中國政協的周生,正反映了香港本土文化的盛況和衰亡。套之於今日,又有幾位昔日明星沒有走樣?〈林夕的〈 某種老朋友〉,引起港人共鳴,也大抵和此文互相呼應。

 

有些道地的景觀,很少在歷史書提及,偏偏這才是我們生活最常接觸、看見的變遷。勇先筆下的海洋公園,由璀璨到沒落;喜帖街的「保育活化」,如何趕走了原有街坊鄰里的租戶;旺角「四樓有四仔」的一代風光,隨網路興起而消逝;九龍城寨、尖沙咀火車站等歷史名勝,怎樣因城市發展的短視眼光,抹殺了文化根本等......

對的,《消失的記憶:101個即將遺忘的香港故事》可謂衰亡之書,記錄的眾多物事,都早已逝去、褪色,留下的只有思念。香港的「幻彩詠香江」,作者形容是「毀容後的塗脂抹粉」,在面目全非、「賣點恐懼症」的今日,那幾道激光正是轉移視線的寄託。事實是,這座城市已經連自力更生的小販都容不下,草根、本土文化都被模糊不清的商業價值吞噬了。

「我係香港人」當然不止101個理由,正如《一千零一夜》那說不完的故事,《消失的記憶:101個即將遺忘的香港故事》的101篇文章,只是榕樹頭下講故的開始。勇先像講故佬一樣,告訴我們這些聽眾,香港故事不必有太多學術包袱,每個人都能夠從自己生活之中,訴說102、103、104個「我係香港人」的理由。

 

讓我們一起翻開《消失的記憶:101個即將遺忘的香港故事》,然後,再留下更多屬於香港的憶記。

Pretty Darn Good
Format: Kindle
So I’ve been on a omega kick and this definitely hit the spot. Madison was frustrating at times with how she acted towards Lucas, Gray, and Rian. It was like she said towards the end, she didn’t believe she deserved nice things. It would have been nice to hear from her best friends again. They kind of were there in the beginning and the gone except for mention of text messages received from them. I feel like her friends would have been great help in encouraging Madison to go with the pack and never give Brent another chance because he was toxic. I loved Rian. His personality was awesome. His humor. His ability to make Madison comfortable whenever she was feeling overwhelmed. And the fact he fell for her and she fell for him first. They are cute together. I do feel like Lucas was the odd man out though. Like Lucas didn’t develop as much of a relationship with Madison. I would have really liked to see more development in the relationship between them. It was also the same with him and Rian. There is really no relationship displayed. Most of the relationship being displayed is between Rian and Gray. Nevertheless, I loved reading about the dynamic that came to fruition during the entirety of this story. Madison finally got her happiness. And Brent finally got punched in the face. Everyone got exactly what they deserve.

Pack's Promise was okay but not great
Format: Kindle
Pack's Promise was okay but not great. I won't recommend it to anyone that I know. PRO: * Very likable characters * Lots of steamy scenes that are written very well * The spelling and grammar are good * The punctuation is good with the exception of using hyphens instead of commas. Lots of hyphens. Lots and lots of hyphens. CON: * Almost no interactions with any characters outside of Madison and the pack * Nearly no plot. They meet, get together for a heat, agree to make it permanent, done * Quite a few typos such as extraneous words, missing words and words out of order THINGS TO KNOW: * More steamy scenes than storytelling * A lot of MM & MMM, some MFMM during heat

Fluffy and Nice Omegaverse
Format: Kindle
… this would have made 5 stars but for 2 reasons. A.) there were quite a few typos; misspelled words, missing quotations, “the his” mistakes, and various signs that maybe a proofread would do good. B.) the writing was quite textbook. Late blooming omega is struggling with her new self, finds a absurdly wealthy pack of alphas, every thing is almost insta-love but she resists, then decides to love herself and let everyone be happy. Rian was my favourite (obviously the author’s favourite too because he got the most page time) but I wish we could see more of his CEO side? He went to work maybe ONCE the entire time. Gray was supposed to be the “growly one” but he turned out to be puppy dog. Lucas was a genius brainiac doctor - but also super alpha with an aggressive hindbrain with a breeding k*nk?? And then there was no actual “breeding”?? Spice 3/5 - normally omegaverse books are super high on messy smut but this was tamer. Romance 3/5 - insta-love that was then resisted because of personal hangup’s Plot 2/5 - weird paced head hopping, showing the same scene from different POV’s that made me feel like it was 2 steps backward, 1 step forward. Humour 4/5 - there were a dozen lines that genuinely made me chuckle out loud Would have been five stars but the lack of proofreading and the predictable plot made me unable to get up to ADORED IT level - four stars is still and official ENJOYED IT, y’all. This isn’t a bad rating. The “Club Heat” has intriguing possibilities so I’m going to give the second one a shot.
