LOST LAKE: A NOVEL
Book ID/图书代码： 06830013B65005
English Summary/英文概要： From the author of New York Times bestseller Garden Spells comes a beautiful, haunting story of old loves and new, and the power of the connections that bind us forever…
The first time Eby Pim saw Lost Lake, it was on a picture postcard. Just an old photo and a few words on a small square of heavy stock, but when she saw it, she knew she was seeing her future.
That was half a life ago. Now Lost Lake is about to slip into Eby’s past. Her husband George is long passed. Most of her demanding extended family are gone. All that’s left is a once-charming collection of lakeside cabins succumbing to the Southern Georgia heat and damp, and an assortment of faithful misfits drawn back to Lost Lake year after year by their own unspoken dreams and desires.
It’s a lot, but not enough to keep Eby from relinquishing Lost Lake to a developer with cash in hand, and calling this her final summer at the lake. Until one last chance at family knocks on her door.
Lost Lake is where Kate Pheris spent her last best summer at the age of twelve, before she learned of loneliness, and heartbreak, and loss. Now she’s all too familiar with those things, but she knows about hope too, thanks to her resilient daughter Devin, and her own willingness to start moving forward. Perhaps at Lost Lake her little girl can cling to her own childhood for just a little longer… and maybe Kate herself can rediscover something that slipped through her fingers so long ago.
One after another, people find their way to Lost Lake, looking for something that they weren’t sure they needed in the first place: love, closure, a second chance, peace, a mystery solved, a heart mended. Can they find what they need before it’s too late?
At once atmospheric and enchanting, Lost Lake shows Sarah Addison Allen at her finest, illuminating the secret longings and the everyday magic that wait to be discovered in the unlikeliest of places.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 来自《纽约时报》畅销书《花园魔法》的作者，本书是其另一部优美而扣人心弦的故事，有关于旧时恋人与当下最爱，有关于那些将人们永远维系在一起的强烈联系。。。。。。
艾比•皮姆初遇迷失湖是源于一张明信片。一张老旧的照片，几行寥寥文字，然而当艾比看到它，她清楚的知道她所看见的是自己的未来图景。
那还是发生在生命早年时候的事情了。如今迷失湖早已在艾比的生命中成为过去。她的丈夫乔治已去世多年。大部分家庭成员也逐渐离开她的身边。如今剩下的唯有一本勾勒有湖边小屋迷人风光的照片集，照片上的小木屋看似丝毫不受南乔治亚州炎热潮湿气候的干扰，而各式各样感到对生活或是工作无所适从，力不从心的虔诚人们每年都会情不自禁地回到迷失湖，心中满怀着他们难以言表的梦想与渴望。
尽管湖区拥有种种美好之处，艾比却还是决定带着大笔钱款放弃湖畔生活而前往外面发达的地区，她告诉自己这时最后一个缅怀之夏。直到最后时刻突然到访的来客使她改变了初衷。
十二岁那年，凯特•菲利斯在迷失湖度过生命中最后的快乐时光，随后她开始体验到孤独感，并开始经历种种心碎与失去的痛苦。如今的她早已麻醉在这样的生活中，但幸亏她活泼可爱的女儿戴温和她渴望走出过去的强烈欲望，她至今还心怀有一丝希望。她不禁思忖，或许呆在湖区也可以让女儿幸福的童年时光稍微延长一些。。。。。。又或许在这一过程中，凯特自己也将重新找寻到那些早已从指缝间溜走的珍贵记忆。
人们陆陆续续找寻到各自回到迷失湖的理由，在那里，他们寻找着连自己也无法确定一切：爱情、亲近、再一次的机遇、平静，他们还寻找着未解之谜，渴望修补受伤的心灵。他们能否在一切终将结束前找寻到各自的归宿？
恰如其分的气氛刻画，动人的情节，《迷失湖》无疑是莎拉•艾迪森•艾伦迄今为止的巅峰之作，它照亮了我们内心深处的秘密渴望，帮助我们发现并把握生活中最易被忽视的微小契机。（DC）
