Book ID/图书代码： 14780015B82242
English Summary/英文概要： Andria’s twin IRIS was always the cool one: she had the boyfriend, the friends, the car, and a shelf full of soccer trophies. She seemed so bright and full of energy that it was already too late when Andria realized Iris had a fatal drug addiction. Now, six months after the death of her sister, Andria is still reeling in the aftermath and riddled with guilt, struggling in school and having trouble connecting with her friends and family – she prefers to stargaze alone with her telescope. When Iris’s ex-boyfriend ALEX, the one who Andria blames as being a bad influence on her sister, comes back to school after a stint in rehab, she vows to hate him – even after she unwittingly starts swapping lines of poetry on her desk with him. As Andria continues to try to make sense of her effervescent sister’s death, trying to do normal things like hang out with sleepovers with friends and dinners with her mom, even more shocking news comes to light that changes her perspective on Iris and how she plans to lead her own life.

Awards/获奖情况：《梦见安提戈涅》继承了乔伊•亚瑟的13 Reasons Why的文风特征，是一部因种种问题而驱动发展的独立青少年小说作品，主要讲述了17岁的安德里亚是如何应对自己双胞胎姐姐的死亡和自己的癫痫病症，并最终转向星辰和诗歌，以寻求抚平内心的创伤。
In the vein of Jay Asher’s 13 Reasons Why, DREAMING OF ANTIGONE is a standalone issues-driven Young Adult novel that follows 17-year-old ANDRIA as she deals with the death of her twin sister and her own epilepsy, turning to the stars and poetry to cope with her traumas.
“Bridges fuels the budding romance with snatches of famous poems that lend emotional depth to the forbidden love…Bridges’ narrative effectively shows there are no easy remedies to some of society’s most troubling ills.”– Kirkus Reviews
