OTHER HALVES
Book ID/图书代码： 01890013B66467
English Summary/英文概要： Following the end of the most traumatic holiday imaginable, Hannah and Cliff return to England, to a household where the atmosphere is so tense you could cut it with a knife. With Hannah’s first love James installed in a flat a few miles away, both Hannah and Cliff try to take stock of this turning point in their lives, whilst struggling to work out where they need to go next. After fifteen years together, with an eleven-year-old son binding them forever more, it’s hard for either to see a way forward.
Yet both Hannah and Cliff have glimpsed new lives that glitter and beckon from the edge of vision. Both are suddenly faced with the real possibility of dealing with long forgotten traumas and realising abandoned dreams. But how to get from here to there? Where to start?
Can Cliff finally face up to issues he has had since adolescence and find happiness in a world that still feels alien to him? For Hannah, can the second half of her life really begin right now, at forty? And can she turn back the clock and find the life of adventure she dreamed of in her youth – without losing the love of her son? And what are James’s real intentions now that he’s back from the dead?
To get where they want to go, Hannah and Cliff will need courage, determination, and humour. But perhaps it’s more courage than they possess.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 可以想象，在那趟痛苦到超乎想象的假日之旅后，汉娜和克里夫回到了英格兰，家中的气氛变得紧张而一触即发，仿佛用一把利刃便可一触即破。汉娜的初恋就住在离她家几英里远处的一个小公寓里，她与克里夫都小心翼翼的评估着这个他们生命中的转折点，努力的试图弄清下一步的方向。15年的婚姻生活和11岁的儿子让两人被紧密的联系在了一起，仍凭谁也无法轻易走开。
然而汉娜与克里夫都瞥到了新生活正在远处闪闪发光并召唤着他们。两人都仿佛在一瞬间看到了希望与机遇，可以去抚平长久以来几乎快被遗忘的伤痛并去重新实现早年放弃的梦想。然而对于这些美好的目标，他们将如何到达？他们又该从何处起航？
克里夫能否直面自己从青少年时期便一直存在的问题，并在这个他一直觉得陌生而敌对的世界中真正的找寻到快乐？而汉娜的后半生又能否重新开始？在四十岁这年？她能否让时光倒流，让自己重新回到自己年轻时期梦寐以求的冒险生活---而不需要顾忌失去爱子的风险？而既然詹姆斯起死回生了他回来的真正意图又究竟何在？
要想到达梦想之地，汉娜与克里夫需要的不仅有勇气、决心，还有一丝幽默。然而又或许两人所拥有的勇气远远超乎他们的想象。（DC）

About the Author/作者介绍： 尼克在全世界范围内有着众多的追随者（他的作品销量就是最好的证明），而对于本书后半部分的预订同样令人印象深刻。似乎后半部分的精彩程度也绝对不会逊色与上半部《汉娜的前半生》。Nick has a huge following world-wide (as his sales would tell you) and the pre-orders for Other Halves are already extremely impressive. It looks set to be doing just as well, if not better, than Half-Life of Hannah.
