Curtis Sittenfeld’s debut novel, Prep, is an insightful, achingly funny coming-of-age story as well as a brilliant dissection of class, race, and gender in a hothouse of adolescent angst and ambition.
Lee Fiora is an intelligent, observant fourteen-year-old when her father drops her off in front of her dorm at the prestigious Ault School in Massachusetts. She leaves her animated, affectionate family in South Bend, Indiana, at least in part because of the boarding school’s glossy brochure, in which boys in sweaters chat in front of old brick buildings, girls in kilts hold lacrosse sticks on pristinely mown athletic fields, and everyone sings hymns in chapel.
As Lee soon learns, Ault is a cloistered world of jaded, attractive teenagers who spend summers on Nantucket and speak in their own clever shorthand. Both intimidated and fascinated by her classmates, Lee becomes a shrewd observer of–and, ultimately, a participant in–their rituals and mores. As a scholarship student, she constantly feels like an outsider and is both drawn to and repelled by other loners. By the time she’s a senior, Lee has created a hard-won place for herself at Ault. But when her behavior takes a self-destructive and highly public turn, her carefully crafted identity within the community is shattered.
Ultimately, Lee’s experiences–complicated relationships with teachers; intense friendships with other girls; an all-consuming preoccupation with a classmate who is less than a boyfriend and more than a crush; conflicts with her parents, from whom Lee feels increasingly distant, coalesce into a singular portrait of the painful and thrilling adolescence universal to us all.

it's kind of like my life back to connecticut. i do miss some pieces from that catholic boarding school, but for the most part, i can't be more glad that i left that place forever, i am fucking free.
評分很多東西隻有自己經曆瞭纔會懂得。prep school life的酸楚與迷惘,旁人看來或許覺得太作,但當你身處這個bubble其中的時候,那個小小的校園就是你的世界,你的夢想,你的一切。
評分[English version] High school memories, or more precisely - high school feelings, rushed back. Feeling peripheral, experiencing heartbreak, longing to be wanted and needed, growing up is an universal agony. And as pointed out by Sittenfeld, the fact that you make peace with your being different, is the signal of adulthood.

評分1) Popular version of Atwood 2) who hasn't gone thru high school before not to understand the most sensitive yet tender nerves in the book 3) bittersweet (though more bitter than sweet) 4) very preppy, thus true. 5) touched by the end, "the world is big"
《奥尔特校园手记》,是刚要进入高中的时候读的,虽然是发生在大洋彼岸的世界。 可是我觉得,不管怎么说,怎样看,青春大概相似吧。 莉·斐奥拉的身上有着每一个少女的影子,敏感脆弱,有点自私偏执。女孩们的友谊也都是“吹弹可破”。奥尔特校园并非是上流...
評分果然还是觉得看中国作家的书比较有共鸣。有些时候觉得翻译不能理解,有些翻译得很隐晦,当然肯定也有文化差异的问题,不过觉得有些地方还是应该加上些注释。另外结局让我有些失望,我本以为莉会蜕变,变得坚强而自信,但是我发现到了最后,她似乎没有多大变化,这本书更像是...
評分莉在“三十而立”时的自述,回忆往事,她有一段话说得非常透彻: “当然,现在我会奇怪,我从哪里得到这样的想法,你要参加一个聚会,别的人必须确确实实地希望你在那里,他们的热情不够疯狂,就意味着他们讨厌你。我从哪里得到这样的想法,被人讨厌是如此重大的事?现在...
評分能找到那么简单封面的书不多了。这种情节,若是放到国内,一定会被醒目地注上:叛逆少女的青春或是别的一些什么让人远离的字。所以挑中了以后,翻开了。 无疑莉是个敏感的女孩,就像我最开始的寄宿生涯一样多疑与惊慌。而我却只想说一些关于她与克劳斯。 奥尔特校园里...
