具体描述
A new book by Pulitzer Prize winner Elizabeth Strout is cause for celebration. Her bestselling novels, including Olive Kitteridge and The Burgess Boys, have illuminated our most tender relationships. Now, in My Name Is Lucy Barton, this extraordinary writer shows how a simple hospital visit becomes a portal to the most tender relationship of all—the one between mother and daughter.
Lucy Barton is recovering slowly from what should have been a simple operation. Her mother, to whom she hasn’t spoken for many years, comes to see her. Gentle gossip about people from Lucy’s childhood in Amgash, Illinois, seems to reconnect them, but just below the surface lie the tension and longing that have informed every aspect of Lucy’s life: her escape from her troubled family, her desire to become a writer, her marriage, her love for her two daughters. Knitting this powerful narrative together is the brilliant storytelling voice of Lucy herself: keenly observant, deeply human, and truly unforgettable.

看完先去仔细了解了下作者私生活，结果发现并不像书中文学老师说的那样，“作家一辈子只能写一个故事”。全程代入Allison Janney，最后一次去看母亲那段看哭。结局太飘，感觉想到哪儿就写哪儿。全程一直在想《Tony & Susan》，但其实没什么明显联系。
评分Lonely and sad.
评分听过最随意的一本书了。真是想到哪儿写到哪儿啊。做家务时当背景音听听还行。语言挺简单。读书的人语调也很平缓。还好这本书非常短。
评分像是没做熟的饭，夹生，这明明像是半成品，尤其后半部分如同灵感来袭时记下的笔记。完全的喃喃自语。
评分非常敏感，敏感到再多一点点就疑似矫情了。
