WHAT SHE NEVER TOLD ME
Book ID/图书代码： 05380015B84901
English Summary/英文概要： I talked to my mother the night she died, losing myself in memories of when we were happiest together. But I held one memory back, and it surfaces now, unbidden. I see a green postbox and a small hand stretching up to its oblong mouth. I am never sure whether that small hand is mine. But if not mine, whose?
Louise Redmond left Ireland for London before she was twenty. Now, more than two decades later, her heart already breaking from a failing marriage, she is summoned home. Her mother is on her deathbed, and it is Louise’s last chance to learn the whereabouts of a father she never knew.
Stubborn to the end, Marjorie refuses to fill in the pieces of her daughter’s fragmented past. Then Louise unexpectedly finds a lead. A man called David Prescott . . . but is he really the father she’s been trying to find? And who is the mysterious little girl who appears so often in her dreams? As each new piece of the puzzle leads to another question, Louise begins to suspect that the memories she most treasures could be a delicate web of lies.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 我母亲去世那晚，我们聊了很久，我沉浸在我们彼此最为愉快的回忆之中。但其中有一条挥之不去：我看见一个绿色的邮箱，一只小小的手伸向它的开口。我不是很确定那只手是否就是我自己的。如果不是，那会是谁的？
Louise Redmond二十岁时离开爱尔兰前往伦敦。二十多年过去了，她因为一次失败的婚姻而心如死灰。家乡在呼唤她，因为她的母亲就要过世了，这也是Louise的最后一次机会去了解自己从未见过的父亲的事情。
顽固的Marjorie至死都拒绝透露有关女儿过去的零散碎片。然后Louise意外地发现了一个线索，有一个叫David Prescott的人浮出来水面。但他真的就是她一直试图找到的父亲吗？那个经常出现在她梦中的神秘的小女孩究竟是谁？拼图的每片都引出另一个问题，Louise开始怀疑她最珍贵的记忆可能全部都是谎言。(LYR)
