College student Joe Talbert has the modest goal of completing a writing assignment for an English class. His task is to interview a stranger and write a brief biography of the person. With deadlines looming, Joe heads to a nearby nursing home to find a willing subject. There he meets Carl Iverson, and soon nothing in Joe's life is ever the same.
Iverson is a dying Vietnam veteran--and a convicted murderer. With only a few months to live, he has been medically paroled to a nursing home, after spending thirty years in prison for the crimes of rape and murder.
As Joe writes about Carl's life, especially Carl's valor in Vietnam, he cannot reconcile the heroism of the soldier with the despicable acts of the convict. Joe, along with his skeptical female neighbor, throws himself into uncovering the truth, but he is hamstrung in his efforts by having to deal with his dangerously dysfunctional mother, the guilt of leaving his autistic brother vulnerable, and a haunting childhood memory.
Thread by thread, Joe unravels the tapestry of Carl’s conviction. But as he and Lila dig deeper into the circumstances of the crime, the stakes grow higher. Will Joe discover the truth before it’s too late to escape the fallout?

一個人的人生路會由什麼決定呢? 我們在自己的人生路上羨慕、感嘆彆人的成功、輝煌;也有那麼多的人在抱怨自己的失敗,詛咒命運的不公平;而更多的人是在為瞭自己的生活努力掙紮、奮鬥著!人生呀,總是要有些坎坷、反轉、知足纔好呀!這大概也是主人公的心路曆程吧! ...
評分 評分我們每個人的一生——假如在當下這個意義上可以這麼說的話——都會有很多的秘密,這樣的一些秘密,有些確實是那樣的,有些卻未必就是那樣的——隻是或者自己或者他人認為是那樣的而已。因為身患絕癥已經時日不多、三個月前剛從監獄裏假釋齣來住在一傢名為希爾維尤莊園的...
評分從小學到中學,每個老師談起雨果那句名言:“比大海更寬廣的是人心”,都告訴我們這是講寬容,後來纔知道,在原著裏作者要說的是人心的深邃,隱藏著無數的秘密。 看完艾倫·艾絲肯斯的這本《我們掩埋的人生》,印象最深刻的是關於越戰中卡爾和上級的衝突,以及卡爾的痛苦心態。...
評分圖書標籤: Fiction 小說 ★ FICTION AllenEskens AUDIOBOOK 國外暢銷 ミステリ・SF・ファンタジー・ホラー
This mystery debut contains enough twists and turns to keep me interested, but at the same time, the plots have so many clichés, making me feel like I was watching a Hollywood movie – everything will always work out at the end.
評分總體還行,男主有點沒腦子,女主不夠立體,懸念不夠精彩
評分作為一本消磨時間的小說還是很稱職的,但是結尾太過drama…不知道是不是因為悲劇會更讓人難忘,而happy ending卻總有不真實的感覺。
評分被書評騙瞭,好久沒看這麼糟糕的小說瞭。通篇male ego爆炸。
評分聽書中……
