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....
##三天就斷斷續續讀完瞭,上一本如此瘋狂啃書的是丹布朗的《天使與魔鬼》。開頭和結尾太精彩瞭,中間部分在費解和厭惡男主行為中略顯呱噪的堅持著,最後結局讓一切釋然。非常完美的推理情節設計,讀完覺得很爽。
評分##2019年goodreads犯罪懸疑類小說第一名,好像還是作者的處女作。故事嗎,懸疑類我看的不多,我覺得還行,最後掀鍋蓋。 故事主要靠第一人稱心理活動推進,輔之女主的日記,大量的對話,所以語言比較簡單,適閤英語學習。 有一些簡單的心理學單詞和概念,勉強可以算知識點。
評分##Love that doesn't include honesty doesn't deserve to be called love...
評分##Compelling? Yes. Convincing? Not so much.
評分##起先聽瞭一個小時有聲書都準備放棄瞭,還好聽從建議改為閱讀。後半部分幾乎一口氣讀完。是不是我讀的懸疑太少瞭,這麼容易代入。一直在期待反轉然而還是震驚瞭。
評分##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。 @2020-01-31 22:15:28 @2021-12-22 11:06:45
