HOW YOU SEE ME

Book ID/图书代码: 09580015B82878

English Summary/英文概要: Composed entirely of one man’s letters, this brilliantly unsettling debut examines the terrifying power of the mind to deceive, not only others but - most destructively of all - ourselves.

’I’ve probably lied to you. That’s habit. I lie to everyone about my family...’ Daniel Laird has returned to Norfolk after a nine-year absence to care for his ailing artist father. He describes his uneasy homecoming in a series of letters to his sister, his boss, and to Alice, his one true love.

But it is not until he discovers a hidden cache of his father’s paintings that the truth begins to surface about why he left all those years ago. The more Daniel writes, the more we learn about his past and the more we begin to fear for those he holds dear.

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 这部精彩而令人不安的作品由一个人的信件组成,探索了欺骗他人以及欺骗自己的可怕力量。

“我可能对你撒谎了。这是一个习惯。在谈到我的家人时,我对每个人都撒谎……”在消失了9年之后,Daniel Laird回来照顾他日渐衰弱的艺术家父亲。他在写给姐姐、老板和唯一的真爱Alice的多封信件中描述了这段令人不安的回家过程。

直到他发现了自己父亲的隐藏画作,关于他多年前离开的真相才开始慢慢浮出水面。Danial写得越多,我们对他的过去就了解越多,也越来越替他珍爱的人感到害怕……(LYR)

Awards/获奖情况:“小说结构张弛有度……是一部探索人类欺骗本质的精致而神秘的作品。”——《独立报》

“在这部令人陶醉的黑暗作品中,作者描绘了被爱和迷失……这是一部令人绝望又美好的作品。”——Alice Kuipers

the full review via the link below: How You See Me, by S E Craythorne - Book review: Letters of deception

"The architecture of the novel is tight and spare... a polished literary mystery exploring the fragile and intensely human nature of deception." The Independent

"A tender, poignant story... word-perfect. S.E. Craythorne revives an old conceit the epistolary novel while making a modern point: how very hard it is to know ourselves and how very hard it is to be understood by others." - Yann Martel

"In this dark, intoxicating novel, S.E. Craythorne writes about being loved and being lost... a wonderful, devastating read." - --Alice Kuipers

"A painfully acute portrait of a damaged inner life. In spare, expertly controlled prose Craythorne slowly reveals... a tale which is genuinely chilling a fine debut." -- Sarah Perry
