In Lisa Genova’s extraordinary New York Times bestselling novel, an accomplished woman slowly loses her thoughts and memories to Alzheimer’s disease—only to discover that each day brings a new way of living and loving. Now a major motion picture starring Julianne Moore, Alec Baldwin, Kate Bosworth, and Kristen Stewart!
Alice Howland, happily married with three grown children and a house on the Cape, is a celebrated Harvard professor at the height of her career when she notices a forgetfulness creeping into her life. As confusion starts to cloud her thinking and her memory begins to fail her, she receives a devastating diagnosis: early onset Alzheimer’s disease. Fiercely independent, Alice struggles to maintain her lifestyle and live in the moment, even as her sense of self is being stripped away. In turns heartbreaking, inspiring, and terrifying, Still Alice captures in remarkable detail what it’s like to literally lose your mind...
Reminiscent of A Beautiful Mind, Ordinary People, and The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time, Still Alice packs a powerful emotional punch and marks the arrival of a strong new voice in fiction.

評分这本书的主题是什么?亲情?爱情?斗争疾病的力量?全都对,但是我却觉得书名才真正地点出了全书一直在证明的一句简洁而又有力的话:Still Alice。 Alice变了吗?答案是肯定的。从一个高智商高能力,自我意识强烈而生活有条理的女教授“退化”到一个生活不能自理,不认...

评分so sad,there are things that we can't fight and do anything to make it better
评分i know how she feels
评分哭瞭也就三七二十一次吧 全篇都在浮現咩姨 演技無與倫比
评分雖然人生沒有到達她的高度卻同樣經受中年危機的低潮。一開始隻是看到更年期綜閤徵,再看到阿茲海默癥,人衰老的速度完全不可控不可逆,記憶的慢慢逝去,看得好傷感。Time heals and time kills too.
