Abstract

於上世紀六十年代初落成的蘇屋村,是香港典型的公共屋村,雖然正在進行清拆,但卻留下了無數家庭的集體回憶,也見證著香港基層的奮鬥故事。本書通過對二十四位曾在蘇屋村居住及長大的居民的口述故事,包括謝偉俊、林嘉華、黃家強、張楚勇等,去共同回味一段段充滿人情味的公屋生活史,並由此展現香港公屋歷史發展的縮影。 本書特色: ◎ 香港有高達47%的人口是居住在公共房屋內,居民在公屋內居住往往超過三四十年,經歷兩至三代,在朝夕相對、共同生活的空間裏,孕育出獨特的「屋村」文化。本書便是「屋村」文化的真實記錄,讓大家重溫昔日香港人守望相助的鄰里關係,再現當日香港的和諧社會。 ◎ 書中訪問在蘇屋村長大的名人包括黃家強,談及跟其哥哥黃家駒在村內一起夾Band的日子;謝偉俊重述在蘇屋村經歷的由童年成長至青少年的黃金歲月。當年的小孩,今天已成為壯年,蘇屋村成為這些家庭的成長搖籃,也見證著香港基層的奮鬥故事。Built in the 1960s, So Uk Estate was a very typical example public housing estate in Hong Kong. Even though it is now in the process of being demolished, it is still the site of much collective memory of many families, serving as a testament to the many stories of struggles of the Hong Kong masses. Based on the oral histories of twenty-four former residents of So Uk Estate, this volume tells a very humanizing story of the many lives in public housing, and the history of public housing in Hong Kong more broadly.As much as 46% of the population of Hong Kong live in public housing. Many families often dwelled in public housing for several generations, spanning three to four decades. Over the many years, in these spaces of cohabitation, an unique “estate” culture gradually developed. This volume is a faithful record of this “estate” culture, giving a vista to the neighborly relations and harmonious society of Hong Kong society past.
