閱讀這本書讓我想起本雅明對他童年時代柏林的描述,不是因為相似,而是因為相異。相異但同樣奇特的感知方式。 我深為本雅明的迴憶而傾倒,在他的記憶和筆端,童年生活不是經由時間而是空間做齣鋪陳,是思想地形圖的呈現:動物園、內陽颱、柏林老西區、祖母和姨媽們的房子、學...

其實36個故事足以大緻概括任何一個人的人生,隻要它夠personal,夠獨特。而這本書就有36個故事讓我走進Maya的青少年時期。其中她年少時的不幸和畢業典禮的感悟給我最大的震撼。
評分跟著主人公的人生走瞭一遭。結尾部分感覺不好。
評分I have read this book twice in my teenage years, and it used to strike me as a narration of life with ups and downs of a black lady in a fluctuating time. Now I tend to focus more on how she feels, which is surprisingly relatable. I disagree with people saying there is something not good enough about this. It's her life. She didn't get to change it

評分Over the last two weeks, I spent one hour or so every night reading Maya's story with laughters and tears. When it occurred to me that she had no choice but to experience "it" by Mr. Freeman, I almost cried out. Much to my comfort, reading helps the author get cured. It's also wonderful that we have read the same book, The Well of Loneliness.
