《善意的谎言》是作者的处女作 南希约翰逊. I’m impressed with this debut novel. It manages to cover such countless subjects including race, social class, and parenthood to name a few. What is unique about this story is that every reader may leave with a different feeling that had the most impact. This is a book I found myself thinking about a day after I got done 阅读 it. I love when a story establishes a deep connection with you.
Story is set in 2008. Ruth Tuttle, an Ivy League educated Black engineer, living in Chicago with her husband. He wants to begin a 家庭 but Ruth realizes she must drop a stunner on him first. She had never revealed to him when she was a teenager she gave birth and the child was set up for adoption. Ruth proceeded to get away from her poverty-stricken town, go to school, and begin a profession. However, presently she needs to return to her past and in the process she may uncover a family mystery or two. Along the way she will meet a young white kid with nickname, Midnight.
《善意的谎言》讲述的是奥巴马最近赢得总统大选期间的故事。 然而，他还没有开始正事。 所以你有无数个人对进步充满信心的迷人场景，与露丝访问她在印第安纳州的老家融为一体，那里的组织左右倒闭，个人艰难度日。 尽管这是一个虚构的小镇，但在我的脑海中不难勾勒出一幅与众不同的画面。 这为故事增添了丰富性。
I will say I had a bit of lightbulb moment when I at last sorted two things out with respect to the plot. However, I prefer not to uncover a lot in my 检讨. Still it is essential to mention it is an exceptionally layered story. So it is deserving of a book club selection as there are such countless things to discuss.
我强烈推荐 The Kindest Lie，我相信作者正在努力创作另一部小说。 无法想象有什么比看到她的写作能力下一步将她带到哪里更好的了！
