具体描述
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.

评分（本文作者：比尔·盖茨） 我总是对我自学的能力沾沾自喜。一旦发现自己对某事一知半解，我就会读一本教科书或看一节网上课程，直到弄明白为止。 我自以为很擅长自学，但塔拉·韦斯特弗的《你当像鸟飞往你的山》（Educated）改变了我的想法。我的自学能力在她面前不值一提，所...
评分##五星推荐。这是一本Tara Westover的自传，她不是名人，可是这本书已经连续登上纽约时报bestseller榜单第一名好几周。 这本书非常有力量，从头到尾充满冲击。作为读者，从跟随Tara步入她生命的一刻，就不停经历culture shock。看美国媒体拿这本书跟去年大热的Hillbilly Elegy对...
