Alice Sebold is the bestselling author of The Lovely Bones (now a major motion picture) and Lucky, both of which were #1 New York Times bestsellers. Her most recent novel is The Almost Moon. Born in Madison, Wisconsin, Sebold grew up in the suburbs of Philadelphia and attended Syracuse University, as well as the University of Houston and the University of California, Irvine. She now lives in California with her husband, the novelist Glen David Gold.
Once in a generation a novel comes along that taps a vein of universal human experience, resonating with readers of all ages. THE LOVELY BONES is such a book -- a #1 bestseller celebrated at once for its artistry, for its luminous clarity of emotion, and for its astonishing power to lay claim to the hearts of millions of readers around the world.
"My name was Salmon, like the fish; first name, Susie. I was fourteen when I was murdered on December 6, 1973."
So begins the story of Susie Salmon, who is adjusting to her new home in heaven, a place that is not at all what she expected, even as she is watching life on earth continue without her -- her friends trading rumors about her disappearance, her killer trying to cover his tracks, her grief-stricken family unraveling. Out of unspeakable tragedy and loss, THE LOVELY BONES succeeds, miraculously, in building a tale filled with hope, humor, suspense, even joy.
The major motion picture version of THE LOVELY BONES, directed by Peter Jackson and starring Rachel Weisz, Susan Sarandon, Mark Wahlberg, Stanley Tucci, and Saoirse Ronan is scheduled for release on December 11, 2009.
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 评分书的开头颇为沉重。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 评分也不知道只是我而已,还是其实大多数人都这样(我猜是后者),有时候冷不丁会想,假如自己现在死了,会怎么样呢?某一个她或他,在突然间得到这个消息的时候,会有怎样的表情和反应呢?会有多少人为自己的离去悲痛欲绝或者泪流满面呢?往往在这种幻想中,父母会如何反应多半不...
难得的好书。
评分在天堂静静地注视人间并不是件无聊的事,但有种无能为力的伤感
评分Now i learn too many means of sad:hideoous,disingenuous,vigilance,pathetic,grief,poignant…… It's pretty savagely beautiful. Sometimes a story is touching because it reminds u of ur own life. Yes, it reminds me a lot, family. I miss the smell of grandaddy's tabacco, miss my father standing on the balcony…
评分Definitely a page-turner. Mesmerizing. Love Lindsey and Ruth. Death is not the destination, people can go on, and the lost ones can always find a way back.
评分i'm down there waiting, i'm up here watching
