村上春树说,小说家就是职业的说谎家,只是小说家能够把真相带到新的地方并赋予它新的光彩。看完《不存在的女儿》才理解这句话。我总是没有耐心去看虚构的东西,但封面上那个白色的蕾丝小衫柔弱而静谧,让人忍不住去抚一抚。一个深夜里终于把书翻到末尾,一些小小的总结式的高...
评分《不存在的女儿》看完已多时,当这本书在豆瓣大热时我不想多说什么。不想成为异己,去和追捧着较劲。当最初的热闹过后,在这夏日的晚上,静静的写下自己的读后感。 我非常同情男主人翁戴维,虽然悲剧是他一手造成的。我相信他在万难中决定送掉患唐氏综合症的菲比是出于...
评分有个故事说,有个人挖了一个洞,然后说出了一个秘密,日后,这个地方长出了一棵大树,只要摘下一片叶子吹,它就会发出声音 -- - - - - “国王长着驴耳朵”。 呃- - - ,好吧,我们要讲的不是这个故事。 如果我们种的是一颗向日葵种子,那我们收获的,应该是金灿灿的阳光,以及...
评分在中国传统文化中,生父母比养父母更值得尊敬。发肤受之于父母,且无权使其有丝毫毁损,更不用提生命本身了。生育乃一重恩,养育又是一重,双恩并施,是儿女一辈子也还不完的债。 然而我们看到,越来越多的西方作品开始探讨,甚至质疑这个定论。《不存在的女儿》和《...
评分黑色的底,上面漂浮着一件雪白的婴儿女装,下面用白色的字写着:不存在的女儿,我看到这个封面,我的心一阵颤栗,有些害怕,同时又感到有一股强烈的吸引力,让我借了这本书。书借回来后总是倒着放,封面压底,我总是不敢正眼瞧封面,看到封面总会有一股凉意蔓延全身。其实...

Families have secrets they hide even from themselves...
It should have been an ordinary birth, the start of an ordinary happy
family. But the night Dr David Henry delivers his wife's twins is a night
that will haunt five lives for ever.
For though David's son is a healthy boy, his daughter has Down's syndrome.
And, in a shocking act of betrayal whose consequences only time will
reveal, he tells his wife their daughter died while secretly entrusting her
care to a nurse.
As grief quietly tears apart David's family, so a little girl must make her
own way in the world as best she can.
有的时候,造就终身苦痛的只是一瞬间的抉择
评分人物和事情刻画太细致了????读起来太累了
评分Sad and touching ... 挺喜欢作者的文笔,细细的,娓娓道来,一幅幅淡淡画面描出一个简单而戏剧化的开篇和由此引出的复杂的故事。
评分读不下去了。这作者要不要描写的那么细致啊,看着真累人
评分有些人,在我们不知道的角落里温暖我们。
