About the Author/作者介绍： 亨特，一名从事文学事业三十年的文学教授，致力于大学生和成年学生的教育，同时也是一名顾问和治疗学家。职业的敏感让他留意到阅读故事可以让人们对自身有所觉悟，同时对人生的选择也有影响。把对人类行为的观察与文学联系起来，可以让我们重新审视那些看起来另类的行为——每一部文学作品都可以成为一本行为指南。亨特出生于英国，1983年于牛津大学完成了文学博士学位。过去的二十三年来，他一直在库利学院任教，也曾在马萨诸塞州的监狱系统中任职过。无论在哪一个地方，对于真正的成长和疗伤来说，都是一个有效的工具。本书是亨特的第九本著作了。他撰写的每本书都是关于写作和文学的疗伤能力的——它的能力就是引导我们深刻了解事物，学会运用精神疗法。
Hunter has been a professor of literature for thirty years, working with college students as well as mature students, and also a counsellor and therapist. Using these two different skill sets he noticed how the stories we read can help us understand who we are, and subsequently what the stories are we tell to ourselves about who we could choose to be. Matching actual observations of human behavior with literature can help us to understand actions that might otherwise seem bizarre - and so each piece of literature can become a handbook on behavior. Hunter was born in England and completed his doctorate in literature at Oxford University in 1983. For the past twenty three years he’s taught at Curry College, as well as within the Massachusetts prison system. In both places literature truly proved to be a force for real growth and rehabilitation. This will be his ninth book. All his books have been about the regenerative power of writing and literature - its ability to lead us to deep understanding and psychic healing.
