On her way home from school on a snowy December day in 1973, 14-year-old Susie Salmon ("like the fish") is lured into a makeshift underground den in a cornfield and brutally raped and murdered, the latest victim of a serial killer--the man she knew as her neighbor, Mr. Harvey. Alice Sebold's haunting and heartbreaking debut novel, The Lovely Bones, unfolds from heaven, where "life is a perpetual yesterday" and where Susie narrates and keeps watch over her grieving family and friends, as well as her brazen killer and the sad detective working on her case. As Sebold fashions it, everyone has his or her own version of heaven. Susie's resembles the athletic fields and landscape of a suburban high school: a heaven of her "simplest dreams," where "there were no teachers.... We never had to go inside except for art class.... The boys did not pinch our backsides or tell us we smelled; our textbooks were Seventeen and Glamour and Vogue." The Lovely Bones works as an odd yet affecting coming-of-age story. Susie struggles to accept her death while still clinging to the lost world of the living, following her family's dramas over the years like an episode of My So-Called Afterlife.Her family disintegrates in their grief: her father becomes determined to find her killer, her mother withdraws, her little brother Buckley attempts to make sense of the new hole in his family, and her younger sister Lindsey moves through the milestone events of her teenage and young adult years with Susie riding spiritual shotgun. Random acts and missed opportunities run throughout the book--Susie recalls her sole kiss with a boy on Earth as "like an accident--a beautiful gasoline rainbow." Though sentimental at times, The Lovely Bones is a moving exploration of loss and mourning that ultimately puts its faith in the living and that is made even more powerful by a cast of convincing characters. Sebold orchestrates a big finish, and though things tend to wrap up a little too well for everyone in the end, one can only imagine (or hope) that heaven is indeed a place filled with such happy endings. --Brad Thomas Parsons
书的开头颇为沉重。女孩被害的一幕读来触目惊心。要不是作者平和的叙述语气让人安心,我差点以为这是一本悬疑恐怖小说。 女孩死后上了天堂。那是一个她可以俯视人间的地方。在天堂,并非万事美好、无忧无虑,女孩还是要面对离开家人的寂寞和失去参与人世间的孤独。她是一个旁...
评分 评分下了一整夜的雨,我的心也如进水般潮湿,可爱的骨头已经看完了,那种温暖夹杂着心酸,甜美夹杂着剧痛,怀念夹杂着放弃等种种情绪纠结犹在,我怎么也忘不了那名叫做苏茜的小女孩。 14岁,漂亮可爱,聪明善良,如花般的年纪,疼爱弟妹,孝顺父母,乖巧而不乏主见,几乎找不到太...
评分不知是不是只有自恋之极的人才会频繁的思考我死了之后其他人的痛苦的样子。 记不清我在多大年龄就开始考虑这个问题,我反复的想,反复的想 也许是在青春期的开始和过程中,想要体现自己的重要性或是觉得没有继续生存下去的信仰,这一切在现在看来真的是可笑而又轻易粉...
