Neuroscientist and debut novelist Genova mines years of experience in her field to craft a realistic portrait of early onset Alzheimer's disease. Alice Howland has a career not unlike Genova's—she's an esteemed psychology professor at Harvard, living a comfortable life in Cambridge with her husband, John, arguing about the usual (making quality time together, their daughter's move to L.A.) when the first symptoms of Alzheimer's begin to emerge. First, Alice can't find her Blackberry, then she becomes hopelessly disoriented in her own town. Alice is shocked to be diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer's (she had suspected a brain tumor or menopause), after which her life begins steadily to unravel. She loses track of rooms in her home, resigns from Harvard and eventually cannot recognize her own children. The brutal facts of Alzheimer's are heartbreaking, and it's impossible not to feel for Alice and her loved ones, but Genova's prose style is clumsy and her dialogue heavy-handed. This novel will appeal to those dealing with the disease and may prove helpful, but beyond the heartbreaking record of illness there's little here to remember.
以下段落选自《我想念我自己》(中信出版社2017年8月),作为喜爱这部电影的影迷,很开心看到原著在中国的出版。 和电影中爱丽丝在失智症关爱大会上的演讲不尽相同,电影里的演讲词更影视化,是电影的一个高潮,爱丽丝边画边读的样子让人印象深刻,而原书的演讲更有力...
评分It's hard to imagine that a person losts a little pieces of memories everyday. Alice does not know herself at the end.But she still can feel love from her husban and daughters.From this perspective, she is still Alice.Her love and love to her are always the...
评分Read the paper book in metro, it give me a complex feeling of Alice who diagnosed as early Alzheimer's. The confession of her iner mind and the reaction between her family is so detailed. It also let me ask myself how can I live a life with the Alzheimer's....
评分题目起得好烂。。。 --------- 书听了三天,然后又找电影来看,当然是喜欢,才会这样。 喜欢书胜过电影,书的故事虽然平淡,但常有隽永的地方。可能因为先看过书,再看电影总觉得只是片段剪辑,虽然每个片段本身都拍得不错,但缺乏内中涌动的暗流和线索,无法连缀起所有的时刻...
评分因为看了电影决定看看原著,除了里面医学和语言学的专有名词很生僻外,其他都很好理解
评分尽管是被诊断出Alzheimerz早期 整个故事讲起来还是淡淡的 却让我们残忍地看着Alice 从忘记把手机放在哪里 找不到回家的路 到忘记自己的学术 成就 记不清深爱的家人的脸 最后 丢掉自己 从一个著书无数的心理学教授变成了一个咿呀学语的婴儿 坐在小推车里 惊恐地看着周围似曾相识的脸庞 不懂他们在说什么做什么 书中有段Alice说比起Alzheimer 她更希望得Cancer 起码还有希望去战胜它 就算痛苦起码自己还是清醒的 死也死得“光荣" 可命运怎能由人讨价还价 它只会抽丝剥茧般地捆住你的心 what if i forget you and forget my feelings of loving you 听的有声书 Genova的声音让摩尔的角色代入感并不强 但很期待电影
评分Heartbreaking to see an extremely accomplished woman losing/forgetting everything. Picturing Julianne Moore the whole time I was reading it makes it even harder.
评分很特别的题材,关注老年痴呆症。可能是因为断断续续读完的缘故,觉得写得有点平淡,没有十分抓住打动我…
评分best book to read if you want to understand Alzheimer disease.
