By Tara Westover. Random House; 385 pages; $28. Hutchinson; [pounds sterling]14.99
A riveting memoir of a brutal upbringing. The author grew up in a normally opaque environment: a Mormon survivalist household in Idaho, where she endured abuse and received no education. Despite not setting foot in a classroom until she was 17, she made it to university and wound up with a PhD from Cambridge.
##過去和自我
##Only ourselves can free our mind
##Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery. None but ourselves can free our minds. 讀完中文版又找來英文原版讀,好像沒那麼驚艷瞭,比起英文書名,Flee as a bird to your mountain作為中文名,特彆值得高亮加粗下劃綫標記一下。
##Audible第三本。邊聽邊看,竟然拖瞭仨月…
##自我的發現有時必須beyond love 愛是一迴事 接受是一迴事 選擇並堅持又是另一迴事
##ignorance
##Only ourselves can free our mind
##You can love someone and still choose to say goodbye to them. You can miss a person every day, and still be glad that they are no longer in your life.
##太震撼瞭,尤其是宇芽的事情之後讀到這本書。作者能選擇拋棄對自己有毒傢庭的迴憶、靠自己的努力進入全新的世界並與傢人肉體和精神的暴力對峙,真的是一大奇跡
