【新唐人2011年4月5日讯】《纽约时报》摄影记者杜斌继《北京的鬼》之后，推出又一力作–《牙刷》。评论表示，这本书以解剖刀的锋利、简练的文字，揭露了共产极权对人类尊严底线的挑战，它的野蛮残暴程度，让希特勒的纳粹集中营黯然失色；是人类女性受难的纸上纪念碑。
《牙刷》是一本中英文对照的后现代小说，内容简短但震撼人心。小说描述的是“公元9991年，共产主义统一了地球。国号牙刷帝国。掌权者废除了所有的法律。并禁止国民公开讨论法律。但仍有追求自由、民主、法治、尊严的人不甘被奴役。成立了一个名叫“公论法”的松散团体进行抗争。”
《牙刷》用诗歌体的形式和后现代的文学手法，记录了共产主义监狱对女性身体和尊严的践踏。
杜斌（《牙刷》作者）：“其实我写发生在9991年‘牙刷帝国’统一地球的事情，就是要给生活在地球上用两条腿走路的人类一个警醒—如果不制止类似的这种暴行，人类有一天真的会绝种。”
杜斌在《牙刷》序言中介绍：这本书所有文字基于女性殉难者和幸存者的证词，来恸悼人类的灭绝。杜斌给出的人类末日答案，令人悚然心惊。《纽约时报》北京分社的一位记者在看了这本书之后深受震撼。
杜斌（《牙刷》作者）：“他当时…看的时候，他看一眼，就发出一声叹息，一直到最后一页。他说，我知道你为什么要写这个，因为这书里面发生的事情，我也亲身听一些受害者讲述过。这位记者说，这本书给我的感受是‘非常感动’。”
《牙刷》书中的“公论法”团体令人联想到现实中的“法轮功”团体。而9991年令人联想到1999年。书中描述的性酷刑，灌食，水牢的情景，也令人联想到“法轮功”团体写给联合国的“中共迫害人权报告”。
对于作品和现实生活之间的映射，作者不予置评。他只说，写这部作品是想给人类一个警醒。
法轮功是一个佛家信仰团体。1992年传出后，修炼者数量迅速增长。1999年开始遭到中共镇压。
中国维权律师高智晟，在2005年发表了对法轮功学员的性酷刑报告。其中大连女士常学霞的证言中谈到：监狱警察指使罪犯用水槽刷子反复插入她的阴道，逼迫她放弃信仰。
高智晟律师在报告中说：“在政府针对自己的人民毫无人性的残暴记录中，其最持久的震荡着我的灵魂的不道德行为记录，即是“610”人员及警察的、完全程序化的几无例外的针对我们女同胞女性生殖器攻击的下流行径！…我们还尚存一丝体热的民族成员，谁还有条件在这样的真实面前沉默下去！？”

‘Toothbrush’ – “A Wake-Up Call”
The New York Times photographer Du Bin
launched another important book, ‘Toothbrush’,
following his book ‘Ghost in Beijing’.
The sharp analysis and concise language of the book
exposes communist totalitarian’s challenges
to the basic human dignity. The described barbaric
brutality of communists is by far more cruel
than Hitler’s Nazi concentration camps.
This book is a paper monument for women victims.
‘Toothbrush’ is a bi-lingual (Chinese and English)
post-modern novel. Short and touching, it describes
AD 9991 when communism unites the earth and
names the empire ‘Toothbrush’. The authorities
abolish all laws and prohibit public law discussions.
But there are still people unwilling to be enslaved,
pursuing freedom, democracy, rule of law, dignity,
who set up a loose organization ‘Public Opinion Law.’
‘Toothbrush’ records physical and mental brutality
toward women in communist prisons, in a form of
poetry and with post-modern literary techniques.
Du Bin (Author, ‘Toothbrush’): “In fact, I wrote
about Toothbrush Empire unifying the Earth in 9991
to give an alert to mankind. If we do not stop
this violence, humans will become extinct one day."
Du Bin wrote in the Preface of ‘Toothbrush’:
“All words in the book are based on testimonies
from women martyrs and survivors, to mourn
the extinction of mankind.” Du’s answer
to the end of mankind is shocking and alarming.
A reporter of The New York Times, Beijing’s office
was deeply shocked after reading this book.
Du Bin: “When he was reading the book, he sighed
along until the last page. He said: ‘I know why you
wrote this book, as I directly heard from victims
some facts described in the book.’ The reporter said
he felt ‘deeply touched’ by this book.”
“Public Discussion Law, Gonglunfa” in ‘Toothbrush’
is reminiscent of the present Falun Gong group, and
9991 is evocative of 1999. The book’s description
of, force-feeding, water dungeon and sexual torture
also reminds people of a report, titled
‘CCP’s Persecution of Human Rights’ submitted to
United Nations by the Falun Gong group.
The author did not comment on the real life
reflection of this book. He said he just
wrote this book as a wake-up call to mankind.
Falun Gong is a Buddhist spiritual practice.
Since Falun Gong was spread to public in 1992,
the number of practitioners increased rapidly.
In 1999 the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)
started the persecution of Falun Gong.
In 2005, Chinese human rights lawyer Gao Zhisheng
published a report on sexual torture of Falun Gong
practitioners. Chang Xuexia from Dalian City
stated in her testimony that under the prison guards
orders, prisoners have repeatedly inserted sink brush
in her genitals, forcing her to give up Falun Gong.
Gao said in his report: “Among the records of the
government’s inhumane and brutal torture toward its
people, the unethical behavior that shocked my soul
most is the 610 Office and its officers’ complete,
systematic and indecent attack on female genitals!…
For nationals who still have a trace of humanity –
who can remain silent facing such reality!?"
