具体描述
Promising to be the debut novel of the season The Silent Patient is a shocking psychological thriller of a woman’s act of violence against her husband—and of the therapist obsessed with uncovering her motive…
Alicia Berenson’s life is seemingly perfect. A famous painter married to an in-demand fashion photographer, she lives in a grand house with big windows overlooking a park in one of London’s most desirable areas. One evening her husband Gabriel returns home late from a fashion shoot, and Alicia shoots him five times in the face, and then never speaks another word.
Alicia’s refusal to talk, or give any kind of explanation, turns a domestic tragedy into something far grander, a mystery that captures the public imagination and casts Alicia into notoriety. The price of her art skyrockets, and she, the silent patient, is hidden away from the tabloids and spotlight at the Grove, a secure forensic unit in North London.
Theo Faber is a criminal psychotherapist who has waited a long time for the opportunity to work with Alicia. His determination to get her to talk and unravel the mystery of why she shot her husband takes him down a twisting path into his own motivations—a search for the truth that threatens to consume him....
用户评价
##前面慢慢听了很多天觉得很拖沓，但后面还是很精彩的！不像一般的thriller那么吓人，听了作者访谈他觉得更是suspense，也受到希区柯克的影响。
评分##Brilliant！巧妙地利用了章节间的衔接和切换，混淆了不同故事线之间的时间线，成功保持悬疑和神秘到最后。看到后面大呼“中计啦”的就是我。被糊弄了呢，却又很开心，哈哈哈哈，怕就怕糊弄不到读者的悬疑作品。用有句港剧常用台词总结就是——神又系你，鬼又系你！“Unexpressed emotions will never die. They are buried alive，and will come forth later，in uglier ways.”所以情绪一定要得到有效的发泄，屈埋屈埋就会屈出病来。喜欢小说里用的Alcestis这个冷门的希腊神话，不过抛开小说单从神话本身来说，我跟作者理解得有点不一样，我理解Alcestis的沉默偏向于哀莫大于心死，而不是murderous rage。 @2020-01-31 22:15:28 @2021-12-22 11:06:45
评分##Compelling? Yes. Convincing? Not so much.
评分##It's not bad, but not as good as people make it out to be.
评分##3星半吧。故事还可以，有psychological thriller共通的优势（情节抓人，读起来放不下）和缺点（后劲小/值得回味的地方少，甚至越回味越不对劲），人物就差一些。如果读一本书只是为了那一个twist，无论读的时候猜不猜得到，我好像都不太喜欢。

评分##Alcestis这个古希腊悲剧的设定棒呆，揭露了关于Alicia的部分真相，又完全掩盖住了Theo这个部分。看书的前半部分感觉自己都要变成Alicia了，总觉得哪里不对，可是说又说不出来……到最后几章揭露真相的时候只有Bone-chilling能形容我的感受。看完以后就只想说：卧槽，我就说感觉前面哪里有问题嘛，原来是这样！！！！
评分##三天就断断续续读完了，上一本如此疯狂啃书的是丹布朗的《天使与魔鬼》。开头和结尾太精彩了，中间部分在费解和厌恶男主行为中略显呱噪的坚持着，最后结局让一切释然。非常完美的推理情节设计，读完觉得很爽。
评分##Abs the best psychological thriller I’ve read dis yr. 主角Theo的心理描写太棒了. Gripping+Bone Chilling最震撼我的地方一定是那句: This is the first time I came face to face with Alicia Berenson.
