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.
##The first English memoir that I have read. Things happened, I don’t know what caused the change, herself or miracle or both
評分##Audible第三本。邊聽邊看,竟然拖瞭仨月…
評分##Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery. None but ourselves can free our minds. 讀完中文版又找來英文原版讀,好像沒那麼驚艷瞭,比起英文書名,Flee as a bird to your mountain作為中文名,特彆值得高亮加粗下劃綫標記一下。
評分##蠻不錯的,寫的真是,喜歡這看似遺憾但卻圓滿的起承轉閤,也許這就是人生吧。There is always something holding us back.
評分##自我的發現有時必須beyond love 愛是一迴事 接受是一迴事 選擇並堅持又是另一迴事
評分##Everything I had worked for, all my years of study, had been to purchase for myself this one privilege: to see and experience more truths than those given to me by my father, and to use those truths to construct my own mind. 教育帶來的蛻變在於意識到不能放棄獨立意誌的一刹那。
評分##讀的原版。看完中文版的書名翻譯解釋,依然不同意那個翻譯。我認為,直接翻譯為《受教瞭》都可以。
評分##Everything I had worked for, all my years of study, had been to purchase for myself this one privilege: to see and experience more truths than those given to me by my father, and to use those truths to construct my own mind. 教育帶來的蛻變在於意識到不能放棄獨立意誌的一刹那。
評分##太震撼瞭,尤其是宇芽的事情之後讀到這本書。作者能選擇拋棄對自己有毒傢庭的迴憶、靠自己的努力進入全新的世界並與傢人肉體和精神的暴力對峙,真的是一大奇跡
