具体描述
Tara Westover is an American author living in the UK. Born in Idaho to a father opposed to public education, she never attended school. She spent her days working in her father's junkyard or stewing herbs for her mother, a self-taught herbalist and midwife. She was seventeen the first time she set foot in a classroom, and after that first taste, she pursued learning for a decade. She graduated magna cum laude from Brigham Young University in 2008 and was subsequently awarded a Gates Cambridge Scholarship. She earned an MPhil from Trinity College, Cambridge in 2009, and in 2010 was a visiting fellow at Harvard University. She returned to Cambridge, where she was awarded a PhD in history in 2014.
Educated is an account of the struggle for self-invention. It is a tale of fierce family loyalty, and of the grief that comes from severing one’s closest ties. With the acute insight that distinguishes all great writers, Westover has crafted a universal coming-of-age story that gets to the heart of what an education is and what it offers: the perspective to see one’s life through new eyes, and the will to change it.

##小时候，幼儿园入学，你哭喊着不愿松开父母的手，第一次品尝到分离的哀愁。 转眼步入大学，却迫不及待打发掉送你报到的父母，第一次看到自由的光亮。 后来啊，离家愈久，愈想不起家的滋味，每一次与父母报喜不报忧的电话之后，都是如释重负的罪恶感。 是什么促使了这种转变，是...

评分 评分##客观的看待原生家庭的影响，通过教育明白自主选择的自由。
