Fiona Maye is a High Court judge in London presiding over cases in family court. She is fiercely intelligent, well respected, and deeply immersed in the nuances of her particular field of law. Often the outcome of a case seems simple from the outside, the course of action to ensure a child's welfare obvious. But the law requires more rigor than mere pragmatism, and Fiona is expert in considering the sensitivities of culture and religion when handing down her verdicts.
But Fiona's professional success belies domestic strife. Her husband, Jack, asks her to consider an open marriage and, after an argument, moves out of their house. His departure leaves her adrift, wondering whether it was not love she had lost so much as a modern form of respectability; whether it was not contempt and ostracism she really fears. She decides to throw herself into her work, especially a complex case involving a seventeen-year-old boy whose parents will not permit a lifesaving blood transfusion because it conflicts with their beliefs as Jehovah's Witnesses. But Jack doesn't leave her thoughts, and the pressure to resolve the case—as well as her crumbling marriage—tests Fiona in ways that will keep readers thoroughly enthralled until the last stunning page.

中文版没坚持完第二章,就找了原著来读。译本虽然小bug不少,但是整体还是很精彩的,只是译者个人文风色彩实在太浓重了,读起来完全不是Ian McEwan的味道。
评分想回去再听几遍down by the Sally Garden,少年人能为爱情为信仰不惜性命,长大后最痛时却也只是哭湿几个枕头懒得起床了。 She bid me take love easy,后来确实就好了,海阔天空,可年轻心境的丢失到底还是让人遗憾
评分被电影牵着不由得不读。喘五口气读完。真真是带着英伦的森森雨气。He came to find her, wanting what everyone wanted, and what only free-thinking people, not the supernatural, could give. Meaning.种种心里描写繁复又反复,人心真是… 或许应该写篇书评了。推荐~

评分法律的创设不是为了独立于宗教、道德、感情之外,恰恰相反,法律产生于这一切之中。
在火车上地铁上回了寝室熬了夜放不下地读完了《儿童法案》,读完像心口被狠狠锤了一拳,早上醒来,still can't get over it. 结尾的遣词很像《在切瑟尔海滩上》, 总是用he must have,猜测的语气,一切却早已覆水难收。热诚而浪漫的灵魂总是承受不住荒凉与混乱,愚蠢而冰冷的世...
