By Tara Westover. Random House; 385 pages; $28. Hutchinson; [pounds sterling]14.99
A riveting memoir of a brutal upbringing. The author grew up in a normally opaque environment: a Mormon survivalist household in Idaho, where she endured abuse and received no education. Despite not setting foot in a classroom until she was 17, she made it to university and wound up with a PhD from Cambridge.
##自我的发现有时必须beyond love 爱是一回事 接受是一回事 选择并坚持又是另一回事
评分##The first English memoir that I have read. Things happened, I don’t know what caused the change, herself or miracle or both
评分##ignorance
评分##What an intense book to my surprise. Setting aside the Homeless-to-Harvard-alike buzz, it is the author's personal struggle to reshape her history and the history around her that makes the book dynamic.
评分读完了,两点感受:一是这家人屡屡大难不死,真的让人难以理解,特别是Shawn和作者的爸爸,看来信仰真的让人强大…但作者与Shawn之间,以及她和原生家庭之间的结局让人唏嘘,作者还年轻,希望人生的最终会是Happy Ending吧。二是作者家出现三个博士,即便她的家庭教育有反智倾向,但她父母肯定还是作对了一些事情,很好奇那到底是什么。
