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.

評分 評分9月15日,星期五,上午11點,我在紐約Penn Station火車站等同事,順便溜達進齣口處的書店,順手拿起一本書來翻看。書的名字叫The Lovely Bones,似乎在豆瓣還是哪裏見過介紹的,一直沒有翻過。"I was fourteen when I was murdered on December 6, 1973."(1973年12月6日,我被...
評分“我姓沙濛,聽起來就像"三文魚",名叫蘇茜。一九七三年十二月六日,我被謀害時不過十四歲。”這就是這本書的第一句話。就是這一句話讓我在書店隨意翻開此書的瞬間就決定要買下來。可見一個好的開頭多麼重要。 買迴傢之後並不是第一時間就看。反而是看瞭其它幾本不相關的書後纔...
評分自己說的大多是和這本書無關,已經很久很久沒有去看一個故事,去看小說,更何況是全英版本,就算之前讀過得幾本不是為瞭論文就是為瞭飛機上的消遣,很對不起作者呀,自己很小的時候就一直會遐想,架著眼鏡,敲擊鍵盤,成為作傢,當長大瞭纔明白,小的時候的夢是多麼的透亮純淨...
