Astrid is the only child of a single mother, Ingrid, a brilliant, obsessed poet who wields her luminous beauty to intimidate and manipulate men. Astrid worships her mother and cherishes their private world full of ritual and mystery-but their idyll is shattered when Astrids mother falls apart over a lover. Deranged by rejection, Ingrid murders the man, and is sentenced to life in prison. White Oleander is the unforgettable story of Astrids journey through a series of foster homes and her efforts to find a place for herself in impossible circumstances. Each home is its own universe, with a new set of laws and lessons to be learned. With determination and humour, Astrid confronts the challenges of loneliness and poverty, and strives to learn who a motherless child in an indifferent world can be. Tough, irrepressible, funny, and warm, Astrid is one of the most indelible characters in recent fiction. White Oleander is an unforgettable story of mothers and daughters, burgeoning sexuality, the redemptive powers of art, and the unstoppable force of the emergent self. Written with exquisite beauty and grace, this is a compelling debut by an author poised to join the ranks of todays most gifted novelists. Praise for White Oleander: Fitchs book is a lovely piece of work. Her prose is ornate and her characters are vividly human a delicious debut. The Globe and Mail Fitch has spun a startling, compelling novel that deserves a wide audience. The Vancouver Sun It is rare to encounter a book so beautifully written or a tale so painful yet exquisitely told. The Edmonton Journal rich with imagery.... The National Post

评分就我而言,这是最好的小说.看的是最早那个尚未成书,刊登在译林上的版本.这么多年过去,杂志早就掉了封皮,一页一页翻到烂掉.固执得用胶带粘起来,时常翻看,怎么看都看不腻. 即使不提情节与内在,单论文字就极美.原作者用油画一般地笔触,将艰难的现实写得一如童话,原作本身就很美了....
