درباره کتاب When No One is Watching نوشته Alyssa Cole :
اعیان نشین سازی محله بروکلین ، معنای شوم جدیدی پیدا می کند.
سیدنی گرین متولد و بزرگ شده در بروکلین است ، اما به نظر می رسد محله محبوب او با هر بار پلک زدن تغییر می کند. مجتمع های مسکونی مانند علف های هرز جوانه می زنند ، تابلو های برای فروش یک شبه ظاهر می شوند و همسایه هایی که او در تمام زندگی خود می شناخت ، یکباره ناپدید می شوند. سیدنی برای حفظ گذشته و حال جامعه خود ، احساس ناامیدی خود را در یک تور پیاده روی پیاده سازی می کند و در این میان دستیاری دوست نداشتنی و ناخواسته ای که یکی از تازه واردان به بلوک مجتمع است ، پیدا می کند. همسایه اش تئو!
اما غوطه وری عمیق سیدنی و تئو در تاریخ ، به سرعت تبدیل به سرازیری گیج کننده ای به سمت پارانویا و ترس می شود. همسایگان آنها ممکن است به حومه شهرها نقل مکان نکرده باشند و شاید تلاش برای احیای جامعه ، کشنده تر از آنچه انتظار داشتند ، باشد.
چه موقع تصادف تبدیل به توطئه می شود؟
وقتی اعیان نشین سازی محله ، مردم را بیرون می راند ، آنها به کجا می روند؟ آیا سیدنی و تئو می توانند برای مدت کافی به یکدیگر – یا حتی خودشان – اعتماد کنند و تا قبل از ناپدید شدن آنها ، متوجه شوند؟
توضیحات کتاب When No One is Watching
The gentrification of a Brooklyn neighborhood takes on a sinister new meaning…
Sydney Green is Brooklyn born and raised, but her beloved neighborhood seems to change every time she blinks. Condos are sprouting like weeds, FOR SALE signs are popping up overnight, and the neighbors she’s known all her life are disappearing. To hold onto her community’s past and present, Sydney channels her frustration into a walking tour and finds an unlikely and unwanted assistant in one of the new arrivals to the block—her neighbor Theo.
But Sydney and Theo’s deep dive into history quickly becomes a dizzying descent into paranoia and fear. Their neighbors may not have moved to the suburbs after all, and the push to revitalize the community may be more deadly than advertised.
When does coincidence become conspiracy?
Where do people go when gentrification pushes them out? Can Sydney and Theo trust each other—or themselves—long enough to find out before they too disappear?
جملاتی از کتاب When No One is Watching
“People bury the parts of history they don’t like, pave it over like African cemeteries beneath Manhattan skyscrapers.”
“Sydney.” Theo is grinning as he calls my attention back to him, though his eyes are somber. “I need you to channel the confidence of a mediocre white man. I’ll give you mine. We’ll figure it out because we don’t have any other choice.”
“They can break, but they can’t erase,” Gracie says. “They can build but they can’t bury us.”
― Alyssa Cole, When No One is Watching
“My neck and chest go hot in a flash and I look away. I should just start building my cabin alongside Fuckboy Creek because obviously it’s where I intend to spend the rest of my days.”
“In all the times I’d moved in New York, I’d only thought about how safe the area was for me, not what my presence meant for people in the neighborhood. Not about what advantages I had that they didn’t. I was poor, too, after all, even though I had figured out how not to be, for a little white at least.”
از کتاب When No One is Watching
“I need you to channel the confidence of a mediocre white man.”
“One is astonished in the study of history at the recurrence of the idea that evil must be forgotten, distorted, skimmed over. . . . The difficulty, of course, with this philosophy is that history loses its value as an incentive and example; it paints perfect men and noble nations, but it does not tell the truth. —W. E. B. DU BOIS, FROM BLACK RECONSTRUCTION (1935)”
“Baby, if you wanna keep what’s yours, you gotta hold on to it better than that. Someone is always waiting to snatch what you got, even these damn birds.”
“followed, smirking because annoying people with history they didn’t want to acknowledge was kind of fun.”
― Alyssa Cole, When No One is Watching
“You don’t look dumpable, whatever that means. You have the eyes of someone who’s been treated worse than they should’ve been, that’s all.”
“No one had second-guessed whether we belonged or were a good investment. The realtors had talked about how we were a part of a wave of new people coming in to enrich the neighborhood, make it better and more valuable, without knowing a damn thing about us.
No, that’s not true. The realtors had known one thing, that I was starting to see was more important than I’d realized.
Us.
Them.”
“One time when I was about eight, I woke her up to tell her a monster was living under my bed. She told me to get the .22 and shoot it, then take my behind to sleep.”

“When I think of a Black community, the first thing that comes to mind—even if I don’t want it to—is crime. Drugs. Gangs. Welfare. That’s all the news has talked about since I was a kid. Not old people drinking tea. Not complex self-sustaining financial systems that had to be created because racism means being left out to dry.”
“He chuckles. “Depends on who you ask. Get in now if you want that good money, bro. I can hook you up.”
He hands me a card, which I take with pinched thumb and forefinger because he’s sitting here in tightie-whities and I don’t know where he pulled it from.”
“I just wanted some scrambled eggs and got Dashboard Confessional instead.”
“grimace in his direction. He’s wearing jeans that are too thick and too tight for the heat index and the amount of walking he’s doing. There are sweat stains around the armpits of his tight gray T-shirt, hinting at the swamp-ass horror show that must be playing below. His face sports carefully contoured stubble and eyes that are red-rimmed from too much booze or coke or both. His light brown hair is carefully styled, though, so he’s not entirely a mess.”
“When I’d clambered up there as an adult, alone, I’d been struck by how claustrophobic the view looked, with new buildings filling the neighborhoods around us, where there had once been open air. Cranes loomed ominously over the surrounding blocks like invaders from an alien movie, mantis-like shadows with red eyes blinking against the night, the American flags attached to them flapping darkly in the wind, signaling that they came in peace when really they were here to destroy.”
― Alyssa Cole, When No One is Watching
“It’s the last sorry that breaks me. He’s said a few times, but this one finally sinks in. I’ve gotten so used to apologizing for being too weak to carry my own burdens — I don’t know if anyone’s ever apologized to me for how heavy they are, even if they couldn’t do anything to lighten the load.”
“Our kiss is like two drowning people searching for a life preserver, finding each other instead, and deciding that roaring waves aren’t so bad if you can fuck in the lulls between them.”
“The North does not remember; in fact, the North has a super-selective fucking memory. As if slavery was something that happened down there, even though there were enslaved Africans building, planting, and harvesting in colonial Brooklyn alongside the Dutch.”
“The dozens and dozens of plant clippings I’ve been ignoring out here have mostly managed to survive, at least. Some things do that without always needing help. It’s pathetic as hell to be outdone by a cherry tomato bush.”
