"THE MEMORY KEEPER' S DAUGHTER" UK Galaxy Book Award Novel Laureate USA Today Book of the Year Secrets, with their own unique way of growth, destroy the life of every liar. Sweeping the top ten rankings in the United States, including the New York Post, Publishers Magazine, and the Washington Post On a winter night in 1964, Dr. David Henry is forced by a blizzard to deliver his own twins. His son, born first, is perfectly healthy. Yet when his daughter is born, he sees immediately that she has Down's Syndrome. Rationalizing it as a need to protect Norah, his wife, he makes a split-second decision that will alter all of their lives forever. He asks his nurse to take the baby away to an institution and never to reveal the secret. But Caroline, the nurse, cannot leave the infant. Instead, she disappears into another city to raise the child herself. So begins this story that unfolds over a quarter of a century—in which these two families, ignorant of each other, are yet bound by the fateful decision made that long-ago winter night. Norah Henry, who knows only that her daughter died at birth, remains inconsolable; her grief weighs heavily on their marriage. And Paul, their son, raises himself as best he can, in a house grown cold with mourning. Meanwhile, Phoebe, the lost daughter, grows from a sunny child to a vibrant young woman whose mother loves her as fiercely as if she were her own. 👨👩👦👩👦👨👩👦👩👦👨👩👦👩👦👨👩👦👩👦👨👩👦👩👦👨👩👦👩👦👨👩👦👩👦👨👩👦👩👦👨👩👦👩👦👨👩👦👩👦👨👩👦👩👦👨👩👦👩👦 不存在的女儿 我们会为此多大的代价? 英文名称："THE MEMORY KEEPER' S DAUGHTER" 《记忆守护者的女儿》 英国银河图书奖桂冠小说《今日美国》年度图书 秘密,以其特有的生长方式,摧毁着每个说谎者的人生。 横扫(约邮报》《出版人刊)(华邮报》等全美十大排行机 1964年的一个冬夜，一场暴风雪迫使大卫·亨利医生接生了一对双胞胎。他的第一个儿子非常健康。然而，女儿出生后，他一眼就发现女儿患有唐氏综合症。他以保护妻子诺拉为由，在一瞬间做出了一个决定，这个决定永远改变了他们的生活。他要求护士把婴儿送到一家机构，并且绝不泄露秘密。但护士卡罗琳却无法离开婴儿。她选择离开，前往另一个城市，独自抚养孩子。故事就这样展开，跨越了二十五年——两个互不相识的家庭，却又被那个很久以前冬夜的决定紧紧联系在一起。诺拉·亨利只知道自己的女儿夭折了，至今仍无法释怀；她的悲痛沉重地压在了他们的婚姻上。而他们的儿子保罗，则在充满哀悼的寒冷家中，竭尽所能地抚养自己。与此同时，失踪的女儿菲比从一个阳光灿烂的孩子成长为一个充满活力的年轻女子，她的母亲深爱着她，就像爱自己的孩子一样。 文艺出版社
