具體描述
In the Dream House is Carmen Maria Machado’s engrossing and wildly innovative account of a relationship gone bad, and a bold dissection of the mechanisms and cultural representations of psychological abuse. Tracing the full arc of a harrowing relationship with a charismatic but volatile woman, Machado struggles to make sense of how what happened to her shaped the person she was becoming.
And it’s that struggle that gives the book its original structure: each chapter is driven by its own narrative trope―the haunted house, erotica, the bildungsroman―through which Machado holds the events up to the light and examines them from different angles. She looks back at her religious adolescence, unpacks the stereotype of lesbian relationships as safe and utopian, and widens the view with essayistic explorations of the history and reality of abuse in queer relationships.
Machado’s dire narrative is leavened with her characteristic wit, playfulness, and openness to inquiry. She casts a critical eye over legal proceedings, fairy tales, Star Trek, and Disney villains, as well as iconic works of film and fiction. The result is a wrenching, riveting book that explodes our ideas about what a memoir can do and be.

##Been there as well.
評分##writing is pretentious
評分##我的2019閱讀最佳，希望能有人翻譯中文版。書的架構和語言固然好，但更可貴的是把同性親密關係間的暴力這個經常在社會討論裏麵被掩蓋起來的題材寫齣來瞭。
評分##Fine
評分##瑣碎到甚至像在讀微博閤集。那些破碎的情緒和零散的事件，一點一點構成 Dream House 裏的那個她。選擇逃離的過程是痛苦的，可隻有切斷過去纔會迎來新來的開始。queer 也是普通人
