________________________
Tara Westover and her family grew up preparing for the End of Days but, according to the government, she didn’t exist. She hadn’t been registered for a birth certificate. She had no school records because she’d never set foot in a classroom, and no medical records because her father didn’t believe in hospitals.
As she grew older, her father became more radical and her brother more violent. At sixteen, Tara knew she had to leave home. In doing so she discovered both the transformative power of education, and the price she had to pay for it.

評分人終究還是要糾纏於自己的傢庭之後而重新認識自己該和他們擁有怎樣恰當的關係。不是不愛,而是因為我愛你,我更要成為我自己,我纔需要遠離你。
評分頭幾章特彆抓人,但讀到最後很煩躁,我拒絕相信是因為我缺乏共情能力,我認為是由於她沒有寫清事情的復雜性和她情感的復雜性。我也無法理解她花瞭那麼長篇幅曆數父母的奇葩之處,最後卻僅僅失望於父親送她去軋鋼而母親麵對她哥哥欺負她時的沉默。沒寫齣復雜性。
我们要背叛多少曾经,才能找到真正的自我? 看了她的故事,比尔·盖茨说:“这是一个惊人的故事,我在阅读她极端的童年故事时,也开始反思起自己的生活。这本书每个人都会喜欢,它甚至比你听说的还要好!” 离奇,边缘,十七岁前她从未上学 在美国的山区,有这样一个家庭:孩子...
評分(本文作者:比尔·盖茨) 我总是对我自学的能力沾沾自喜。一旦发现自己对某事一知半解,我就会读一本教科书或看一节网上课程,直到弄明白为止。 我自以为很擅长自学,但塔拉·韦斯特弗的《你当像鸟飞往你的山》(Educated)改变了我的想法。我的自学能力在她面前不值一提,所...
評分Educated是一个简洁有力的词,谁都可以读懂。但如果将它直译过来,是否还能保留这种力量? 它的被动语态,既传递一种结果,又表达一种状态。 “受过教育”和“教养”是这个词的两个层面,选择任何一个都无法完整地表达原意。 “受教”更像一个抱拳的动作,生硬而有年代感。 似...
評分回答之前,我思考了片刻。“我能在风中站稳,是因为我不是努力尝试站在风中,”我说,“风就是风。人能受得了地面上的阵阵狂风,所以也能禁得住高空的风。它们没有区别。不同的是头脑中怎么想。” 你想知道一个山里长大的女孩,如何回忆她的半生吗?劳作过的腿脚身躯,有着中国...
