Promising to be the debut novel of the season The Silent Patient is a shocking psychological thriller of a woman’s act of violence against her husband—and of the therapist obsessed with uncovering her motive…
Alicia Berenson’s life is seemingly perfect. A famous painter married to an in-demand fashion photographer, she lives in a grand house with big windows overlooking a park in one of London’s most desirable areas. One evening her husband Gabriel returns home late from a fashion shoot, and Alicia shoots him five times in the face, and then never speaks another word.
Alicia’s refusal to talk, or give any kind of explanation, turns a domestic tragedy into something far grander, a mystery that captures the public imagination and casts Alicia into notoriety. The price of her art skyrockets, and she, the silent patient, is hidden away from the tabloids and spotlight at the Grove, a secure forensic unit in North London.
Theo Faber is a criminal psychotherapist who has waited a long time for the opportunity to work with Alicia. His determination to get her to talk and unravel the mystery of why she shot her husband takes him down a twisting path into his own motivations—a search for the truth that threatens to consume him....
Alex Michaelides was born in Cyprus to a Greek-Cypriot father and English mother. He has a MA in English Literature from Cambridge University and a MFA in Screenwriting from the American Film Institute in Los Angeles. The Silent Patient is his first novel.
国庆期间,一天半把这本书看完了,做晚看到夜里2点。作者很聪明,最开始给你铺了一个很大的谜团,Gabriel被枪杀了,Alicia从此不开口了,没人知道那晚发生了什么。作为读者的我就一步一步跟随着作者去找寻答案。既然我已经开始了,我就需要知道答案。这大概就是人类的好奇心吧...
評分温馨提示:本篇有大量剧透(介意者慎读)???????????? 整本书以有关Alcestis的希腊神话故事结尾处的那句话But why does she not speak?就把读者带入一个悬念之中,紧接着就呈现Alicia的日记,怎么说呢,最开始读Alicia的日记时给我的感觉是Alicia有问题,尤其是她说她不能把她...

近幾年看過敘述最棒的故事之一 讀完很想找人講話 又感覺像題目裏的女主角一樣啞口無言 跟“gone girl”大賣之後成堆齣現的俗套“心理懸疑/人格分裂”類妖艷賤貨很不一樣 this debut novel is fresh, bone-chilling, meticulous, and disturbingly good. 每一章都很短 你會一直跟自己說just one more chapter然後完全放不下來 到後半部分你覺得在震驚裏經曆瞭“ah ha”moment之後 結尾還有更強大的反轉等著你 整個敘事和句式風格明明都很easy 但讀完讓你感覺deeply uneasy 推薦給想讀個好故事、但不介意情感上有幾天包袱的人
评分懸念設置得很好,反轉還是玩不過 Gillian Flynn 寫的那幾本,黑暗也不如Gilli大約聽到一半我已經猜齣大緻方嚮瞭,最後大實錘落下的時候,可能是看瞭太多評論 hyped up 倒覺得沒有這麼震撼。
评分Brilliant!巧妙地利用瞭章節間的銜接和切換,混淆瞭不同故事綫之間的時間綫,成功保持懸疑和神秘到最後。看到後麵大呼“中計啦”的就是我。被糊弄瞭呢,卻又很開心,哈哈哈哈,怕就怕糊弄不到讀者的懸疑作品。用有句港劇常用颱詞總結就是——神又係你,鬼又係你!“Unexpressed emotions will never die. They are buried alive,and will come forth later,in uglier ways.”所以情緒一定要得到有效的發泄,屈埋屈埋就會屈齣病來。喜歡小說裏用的Alcestis這個冷門的希臘神話,不過拋開小說單從神話本身來說,我跟作者理解得有點不一樣,我理解Alcestis的沉默偏嚮於哀莫大於心死,而不是murderous rage。
评分反轉的當下還是讓我倒吸一口冷氣
评分Shivers down my spine while reading till the very end
