Breaking Night 2024 pdf epub mobi 电子书 图书描述

" Breaking Night reads more like an adventure story than an addiction-morality tale. It's a white-knuckle account of survival. . . . By age 6, Murray knew how to mainline drugs (though she never took them) and how to care for her strung-out parents. She showed uncanny maturity, even as a child, and later managed to avoid that malady of teenagers and memoir writers, self-pity. . . . Murray's stoicism has been hard-earned; it serves her well as a writer. Breaking Night itself is full of heart, without a sliver of ice, and deeply moving." ( The New York Times Book Review ) "Liz Murray shows us that the human spirit has infinite ability to grow and can never be limited by circumstance. Breaking Night is a beautifully written, heartfelt memoir that will change the way you look your community, the obstacles in your own life and the American Dream. An inspiration, a must read." (Robert Redford) "[Liz Murray] reminds us that the greatest acts of love and failure can occur side by side; that isolation and loss can give way to accomplishment and promise. She offers the awesome hope that, regardless of its past, a life can go beyond endurance and reach for triumph. She leave us with the memory of a child who clung to and refused to surrender the dignity of her soul." (Andrew Bridge, author of the New York Times bestseller Hope's Boy ) "As much as it is a memoir, Breaking Night is a primer on how poverty and drug abuse create a heartbreaking underclass of children, one that goes largely unnoticed. By the truly uplifting ending, Liz Murray has shown us the worst, and the very best, of America." (Haven Kimmel, author of A Girl Named Zippy and She Got Up Off the Couch ) In the vein of The Glass Castle, Breaking Night is the stunning memoir of a young woman who at age fifteen was living on the streets, and who eventually made it into Harvard. Liz Murray was born to loving but drug-addicted parents in the Bronx. In school she was taunted for her dirty clothing and lice-infested hair, eventually skipping so many classes that she was put into a girls' home. At age fifteen, Liz found herself on the streets when her family finally unraveled. She learned to scrape by, foraging for food and riding subways all night to have a warm place to sleep. When Liz's mother died of AIDS, she decided to take control of her own destiny and go back to high school, often completing her assignments in the hallways and subway stations where she slept. Liz squeezed four years of high school into two, while homeless; won a New York Times scholarship; and made it into the Ivy League. Breaking Night is an unforgettable and beautifully written story of one young woman's indomitable spirit to survive and prevail, against all odds.

最后一个chapter才觉得没有嫩么压抑,也细腻的描写出很多电影里面没有说明的细节,看起来很过瘾

没收获

很久没有那种意犹未尽的感觉了,这本书读了大概有10天,每次拿起都不想放下。生活就是这样,或许苦难或许励志,或许无奈获取自强,就像是作者最后说的那句话:“Life takes on the meaning that you give it”。之前度过毛姆的人生的枷锁,觉得人生其实就是毫无意义的,所谓的意义都是人赋予的。可是想想如果人生满都是负面的东西,那么活着便是真的没有意义了。人类赋予的也好,自然存在的也好,给自己设定目标,然后认真地活下去,享受自己达成目标的过程,这样的生活不也挺好吗?很喜欢Liz举的那个例子,我的眼前真的出现了那个跨栏跑的运动员,是她赐予我力量。作为英专生,觉得文章写得很好,用小词很多,句子不长,便于理解。读的过程中刚好可以督促自己掌握新的词汇,还有各种近义词等。很好!

评分

“我愿意以任何代价,换回曾经那个温暖幸福的家。”
