Lydia is dead. But they don’t know this yet . . .
So begins the story of this exquisite debut novel, about a Chinese American family living in 1970s small-town Ohio. Lydia is the favorite child of Marilyn and James Lee; their middle daughter, a girl who inherited her mother’s bright blue eyes and her father’s jet-black hair. Her parents are determined that Lydia will fulfill the dreams they were unable to pursue—in Marilyn’s case that her daughter become a doctor rather than a homemaker, in James’s case that Lydia be popular at school, a girl with a busy social life and the center of every party.
When Lydia’s body is found in the local lake, the delicate balancing act that has been keeping the Lee family together is destroyed, tumbling them into chaos. James, consumed by guilt, sets out on a reckless path that may destroy his marriage. Marilyn, devastated and vengeful, is determined to find a responsible party, no matter what the cost. Lydia’s older brother, Nathan, is certain that the neighborhood bad boy Jack is somehow involved. But it’s the youngest of the family—Hannah—who observes far more than anyone realizes and who may be the only one who knows the truth about what happened.
A profoundly moving story of family, history, and the meaning of home, Everything I Never Told You is both a gripping page-turner and a sensitive family portrait, exploring the divisions between cultures and the rifts within a family, and uncovering the ways in which mothers and daughters, fathers and sons, and husbands and wives struggle, all their lives, to understand one another.

读后感
在莎士比亚的世界里，悲剧分为命运的悲剧和性格的悲剧，前者是无常的强大世界对弱小人类的捉弄和摧毁，后者则是人类自身的缺点所导致的灾难——悲剧的中心总是人类，然而如果真以人类为中心去考虑的话，所有悲剧的来源其实只有一个——无知，亦可以说是佛教中所说的“无明”。 ...
评分 评分伍绮诗用这本写了6年的这本小说告诉你：喏，这就是家庭，一个带着中国味道的美国家庭。我甚至觉得她在讲述家庭上有了点李安的味道，在看似融洽的生活中却有着无声的忍受，人们愿意因为爱的承诺而妥协、牺牲，会因为害怕失去而顺从。可是，爱的倾斜成为沉重的负担。书中的一些描...
评分生活在温哥华，对种族的差异，移民的烦恼，有深入体会，我特别关注移民题材的文学作品。我发现，在北美，移民矛盾突出的族裔主要是亚裔和拉丁裔，其他的种族似乎没有这么明显，可能他们的文化趋同。华裔女作家谭恩美的《喜福会》，我读过好几遍，母女之间既有深沉执着...
评分To be honest I haven't read such an overwhelming novel in ages. Well technically any novels just to be fair. It has everything a thriller should have: A missing/dead girl, a seemingly normal family that had something weird buried in somewhere, a strange b...

自我拯救在意识到错误之后，错误之后是自不量力的自我拯救，更大的错误是死亡。
评分It is not a horror story talking about who killed Lydia but is a portrait of an American-Chinese family against the background of 1970s in US. No one killed her but every one in this story and the whole society killed her.
评分种族 文化差异 家庭关系 女性主义 甚至还有同性。主题混杂的有趣作品。想起文革时候远走美帝的Dr.Fu用羡慕的语气对我们说当时的她像是溺在大海里的孤独一人。
