THE LIGHT BETWEEN WORLDS
Book ID/图书代码： 13186018C00084
English Summary/英文概要： “A retelling of C.S. Lewis’ The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, this novel gives us a glimpse of how the Pevensies must have struggled once they resumed their mundane lives in the ‘real world.’ In Weymouth’s story, the Hapwell siblings have returned to a barely post-World War II England from a magical realm called the Woodland. Youngest sibling Evelyn can’t find home in the world to which she was born, while her older sister Philippa dives headfirst into her old life to escape the world she left behind. Told from both sisters’ perspectives, The Light Between Worlds is a lyrical exploration of one’s true place—among the people we love, within ourselves, or in woodland realms beyond our ken—and the lengths we will go to chase it.”
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 这部小说就像是C.S.刘易斯《狮子、女巫和衣橱》的翻版，让我们看到了 Pevensies一家一旦回到“真实世界”开始世俗生活后所必须经历的挣扎。在Weymouth的故事中，Hapwell兄弟姐妹们从一个叫做Woodland的神奇之地回到了二战后的英国。最小的Evelyn无法在这个她出生的地方找到归属感，而她的姐姐Philippa则一头扎进了过往的生活逃避她离开的那个神奇世界。小说以两姐妹的视角展开叙述，诗意地探索了一个在我们所爱的人之间，在我们内心深处的真实世界，以及我们为了到达这个世界愿意付出的代价。（LYR）
