Imagine Me Gone (Hamish Hamilton/Little, Brown) is about a father who kills himself and a son who later does the same.Adam Haslett's second novel, about what mental illness does to the bonds within a New England family, ought to be too harrowing to read for pleasure.Instead it is so understanding, so intelligently written that it is as uplifting as it is upsetting.Love may not be strong enough to change the course of mental illness—but it defines the survivors and ends up saving them.
《想象我已离去》是一部有关父子相继自杀的故事。这是亚当·哈斯利特的第二部小说，关于饱受精神病折磨的新英格兰家庭所发生的故事。如果是为了消遣而读，这本书过于沉重。不过，这本书如此深刻，写作手法如此聪明，令人振奋又令人沮丧。爱也许并没有强大到可以改变心理疾病的进程，但是它定义了活下来的人的意义，并最终挽救了他们。
