Tara Westover is an American author living in the UK. Born in Idaho to a father opposed to public education, she never attended school. She spent her days working in her father's junkyard or stewing herbs for her mother, a self-taught herbalist and midwife. She was seventeen the first time she set foot in a classroom, and after that first taste, she pursued learning for a decade. She graduated magna cum laude from Brigham Young University in 2008 and was subsequently awarded a Gates Cambridge Scholarship. She earned an MPhil from Trinity College, Cambridge in 2009, and in 2010 was a visiting fellow at Harvard University. She returned to Cambridge, where she was awarded a PhD in history in 2014.
Educated is an account of the struggle for self-invention. It is a tale of fierce family loyalty, and of the grief that comes from severing one’s closest ties. With the acute insight that distinguishes all great writers, Westover has crafted a universal coming-of-age story that gets to the heart of what an education is and what it offers: the perspective to see one’s life through new eyes, and the will to change it.

Educated 下載 mobi epub pdf 電子書##嚴重過譽的書。開頭描寫群山還算有點文學性,後麵絮絮叨叨,其實就是講父母腦殘智障、不讓上學嚴重虐待怎麼辦。1/4棄,後半段在得到聽瞭,體驗自我/敘事自我2種寫法,消解對世界的決定論和宿命論看法。中譯名<你當像鳥飛往你的山>好美。
評分##針對factuality的一些accusations, 作者早已在文中給齣瞭交代。The important thing is to construct HER narrative out of her past, NOT relying on someone else's recount. It is precisely HER interpretation that matters. 從這個角度來說,這個narrative的存在本就構成瞭某種manifesto of independence, 一種話語權上的抵抗。Content wise, 威權父母和自由鳥子女之間的戰爭再一次被證明是無法和解的。Westover離開Idaho,跟極少數留學生齣逃,本質上的理由和經驗是極其相似的
