In an American suburb in the early 1980s, students at a highly competitive performing arts high school struggle and thrive in a rarified bubble, ambitiously pursuing music, movement, Shakespeare, and, particularly, their acting classes. When within this striving “Brotherhood of the Arts,” two freshmen, David and Sarah, fall headlong into love, their passion does not go unnoticed―or untoyed with―by anyone, especially not by their charismatic acting teacher, Mr. Kingsley.
The outside world of family life and economic status, of academic pressure and of their future adult lives, fails to penetrate this school’s walls―until it does, in a shocking spiral of events that catapults the action forward in time and flips the premise upside-down. What the reader believes to have happened to David and Sarah and their friends is not entirely true―though it’s not false, either. It takes until the book’s stunning coda for the final piece of the puzzle to fall into place―revealing truths that will resonate long after the final sentence.

Brilliant. The structure of two different narrators lays bare the construct of fiction and the malleability of memory, poignant in the context of adolescent sexual abuse--the teenager's idea of her agency makes her blame herself, as an adult she struggles with a new narrative. Overwrought/dazzling language in 1st act. Doles out clues patiently.

评分3.5 到底该多信任一本小说的narrator呢？作者告诉我们其实讲故事的人掌握的权力太大了，we tell the stories we need to live. 应对trauma的一种方法就是不断告诉自己这是我的故事，并且把这个故事活出来！整体语言还行，结尾花了一些时间才彻底明白。
