Alice Sebold is an American writer. She has published three books: Lucky (1999), The Lovely Bones (2002), and The Almost Moon (2007)
The Lovely Bones is the story of a family devastated by a gruesome murder -- a murder recounted by the teenage victim. Upsetting, you say? Remarkably, first-time novelist Alice Sebold takes this difficult material and delivers a compelling and accomplished exploration of a fractured family's need for peace and closure.
The details of the crime are laid out in the first few pages: from her vantage point in heaven, Susie Salmon describes how she was confronted by the murderer one December afternoon on her way home from school. Lured into an underground hiding place, she was raped and killed. But what the reader knows, her family does not. Anxiously, we keep vigil with Susie, aching for her grieving family, desperate for the killer to be found and punished.
Sebold creates a heaven that's calm and comforting, a place whose residents can have whatever they enjoyed when they were alive -- and then some. But Susie isn't ready to release her hold on life just yet, and she intensely watches her family and friends as they struggle to cope with a reality in which she is no longer a part. To her great credit, Sebold has shaped one of the most loving and sympathetic fathers in contemporary literature.
“我姓沙蒙,听起来就像"三文鱼",名叫苏茜。一九七三年十二月六日,我被谋害时不过十四岁。”这就是这本书的第一句话。就是这一句话让我在书店随意翻开此书的瞬间就决定要买下来。可见一个好的开头多么重要。 买回家之后并不是第一时间就看。反而是看了其它几本不相关的书后才...
評分9月15日,星期五,上午11点,我在纽约Penn Station火车站等同事,顺便溜达进出口处的书店,顺手拿起一本书来翻看。书的名字叫The Lovely Bones,似乎在豆瓣还是哪里见过介绍的,一直没有翻过。"I was fourteen when I was murdered on December 6, 1973."(1973年12月6日,我被...
評分自己说的大多是和这本书无关,已经很久很久没有去看一个故事,去看小说,更何况是全英版本,就算之前读过得几本不是为了论文就是为了飞机上的消遣,很对不起作者呀,自己很小的时候就一直会遐想,架着眼镜,敲击键盘,成为作家,当长大了才明白,小的时候的梦是多么的透亮纯净...
評分《骨头》里的天堂让我很向往,没有欢喜也没有悲愁,只有的是对人间的憧憬。里面有一段天堂里唱歌跳舞的描写,让人为之振奋。但是当苏茜与其他的被害者聚集在一起时,只有凉凉的秋风与广阔荒凉的田野。一片广阔。 人间中人们所想的天堂肯定是幸福愉快自由自在的生活。但...
評分这是一本娓娓道来的小书,虽然故事一开始就告诉你,我(苏茜)死了,是被邻居哈维先生残忍杀害,碎尸并放在保险柜,扔在了落水洞中。但是自始至终,都是苏茜在对你诉说,虽然她已经“死了”,但死后却仍有灵魂。只是她身边的人无法得知,他们阴阳两隔。 苏茜来去于人间和天堂,...
the beginning was good, but by the middle it was dragging too much. (7/12/2015至7/13/2015)
