Book ID/图书代码： 11980512B54944
English Summary/英文概要： At forty-nine, Celeste has long renounced the religion of her childhood. Yet she finds herself reluctantly accompanying her mother and sister to a pilgrimage site in Romania, where her devout mother seeks a miracle — a cure for her terminal illness.As Celeste tries to come to terms with her mother’s impending decline, she realises she has to confront the unspoken conflicts embedded in the foundations of her family. Away from her husband, she must also face her fear of what the future holds for them both.
Written with heart-rending precision, warmth and grace, Pilgrimage is a powerful meditation on how our personal histories haunt us, and an affirmation of the hope and sustenance that may be found in our imperfect families.

温暖、优雅、纠结，这部书同时给了我们一个警醒，一个思考，也让我们看到了不完美的家庭生活中的正面力量。(XJJ)
