具體描述

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.

##還記得高爾基爺爺的人生三部麯的第三部嗎?高爺爺從來沒有上過大學,社會就是他的大學。小時候發現這件事兒的時候一腦門子的不明覺厲。 我想對Tara來講,在傢鄉愛達荷州度過的年月不比在BYU和劍橋的分量輕。也許這是不言而喻的事實。因為使她在眾學生中讓人眼前一亮的正是她站...
