M FOR MAMMY
Book ID/图书代码： 11701218C00105
English Summary/英文概要： Meet the Augustts ... a loving, Irish family who, like all families, are a bit complicated. But they are bound together by their love for each other and the way their words shape their world.
Things become a little more complicated when the mother has a stroke, and the force of nature who is Granny Mae-Ann comes to try and take charge to keep the family together.
She has a job on. There’s the son Jacob with all his words trapped in his head by The Autism, the father Mickey struggling to express himself at all, and Jenny, the daughter, quietly writing it all down to try and make sense of it.
M for Mammy is about language and home and the power of a family to heal itself. It is about telling stories, reading stories, and writing them down. It’s about coming home, about finding language and about the truth of words. It is a story of a young boy without words, of a mother who has lost her words and a father full of stories he has to learn to tell. And then there’s the granny who hammers and shapes words on the anvil of love, and a daughter who tries to speak for them all.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 来见见Augustt一家…一个充满爱的爱尔兰家庭，同时也像所有的家庭一样有点复杂。但他们被彼此的爱和他们用自己的语言塑造的世界紧紧围绕。
当母亲中风的时候，事情变得更加困难了。梅安奶奶来到这个家庭并负责保持家庭的团结。
她有一份工作。还有一个儿子Jacob，他所有想说的话都被他的自闭症困在了头脑之中，父亲Mickey并不轻易表达自己。而女儿Jenny，把周遭的事物悄悄地写下来并试着去理解。
《妈妈》说的是语言和家庭之间的关系，以及家庭自愈的力量。描述了如何讲故事，读故事，并写下来。它描述了如何回到家庭，寻找沟通的语言和言语的含义。这是关于一个不说话的男孩，一个无法说话的母亲，一个充满故事却不知如何讲述的父亲的故事。还有那个在爱的铁砧上敲打和塑造文字的奶奶和一个试图为他们所有人发声的女儿。(YYW)
