Families have secrets they hide even from themselves...
It should have been an ordinary birth, the start of an ordinary happy
family. But the night Dr David Henry delivers his wife's twins is a night
that will haunt five lives for ever.
For though David's son is a healthy boy, his daughter has Down's syndrome.
And, in a shocking act of betrayal whose consequences only time will
reveal, he tells his wife their daughter died while secretly entrusting her
care to a nurse.
As grief quietly tears apart David's family, so a little girl must make her
own way in the world as best she can.
"你捕捉不住光线。你只能抬起头来,让光线照在你的脸上。”“爸爸试图让一切定格,但世界是流动的,包围不住的。” 英文的书名是——the timekeeper's daughter,读完印象最深的并不是故事的主线——谎言造成的隔阂,而是亨利用相机徒劳地捕捉每个光与影。就像他儿子保...
评分【原文發自:http://blogs.carrielis.com/index.php/158】 上個月二號我收到了在五月底於博客來訂購的這本書,其實我一直提不起勇氣看這本書,或許是因為我自己本身也是個母親的關係吧!直至最近這兩天我才斷斷續續地將這本書看完,果真,我的心,沉甸甸地。 本書探討的...
评分 评分黑色的底,上面漂浮着一件雪白的婴儿女装,下面用白色的字写着:不存在的女儿,我看到这个封面,我的心一阵颤栗,有些害怕,同时又感到有一股强烈的吸引力,让我借了这本书。书借回来后总是倒着放,封面压底,我总是不敢正眼瞧封面,看到封面总会有一股凉意蔓延全身。其实...
有的时候,造就终身苦痛的只是一瞬间的抉择
评分Kinokuniya bestseeler 上架好久了
评分才看一点点,等把货币战争看完的吧。 这次不错,买的书看完2本,再看2本,利用率很高 经过一个月,看完了。上下班的城铁看的。哭了一次,因为里面描述paul在隐藏他的痛苦,和我memory keep的某人也一样。 有时候,有的决定是会影响一生。只是,不会像看小说那样很宏观的去看。 我现在回头想,都会想当初如果做了没做什么事,现在会是怎么样。 一直讨厌norah,觉得她一直是没事找事那种,但是最后,她的宽容,她的话我一直记着:已经发生了,已经是这样了。 以后,会多看原版小说
评分最喜欢的一个桥段是,卡洛琳在一个下雪天开车送phoebe去孤儿院的路上
评分Sad and touching ... 挺喜欢作者的文笔,细细的,娓娓道来,一幅幅淡淡画面描出一个简单而戏剧化的开篇和由此引出的复杂的故事。
