An Entertainment Weekly and BookPage Best Book of the Year
During her treatment for cancer, Mary Anne Schwalbe and her son Will spent many hours sitting in waiting rooms together. To pass the time, they would talk about the books they were reading. Once, by chance, they read the same book at the same time—and an informal book club of two was born. Through their wide-ranging reading, Will and Mary Anne—and we, their fellow readers—are reminded how books can be comforting, astonishing, and illuminating, changing the way that we feel about and interact with the world around us. A profoundly moving memoir of caregiving, mourning, and love—The End of Your Life Book Club is also about the joy of reading, and the ways that joy is multiplied when we share it with others.

圖書標籤: 閱讀 生命 英文原版 母愛 時光記 小說 迴憶錄 關於書
愛,以書之名
評分quite moving and sad
評分越是親近的人越是有溝通障礙,滿滿的情感卻難以說齣口。和患絕癥的母親一起讀書,交流心得,以這樣的方式陪她走完人生的最後一程,作者的這份心思實在感人。類似的,龍應颱的《親愛的安德烈》,與正在走上自己人生道路的兒子書信,談論時政,瞭解他的想法,價值觀,一樣感人。我們都應該多與傢人錶達情感,開不瞭口的就換種方式!
評分通過和母親兩人之間的book club,作者對”death“和”dying“都有瞭新的認識。羨慕這樣的親子關係,裏麵列的書單也很有價值。
評分Believed the best 讀到第二章的時候就給媽媽買瞭本中文版,一起讀書的感覺真的很好,尤其是身在異地
