“Astonishing…. So surprising and moving and true that I became completely unstrung.” – The New York Times
It’s quite rare to find someone who sees the same world you see.
Sixteen-year-old Aza never intended to pursue the mystery of fugitive billionaire Russell Pickett, but there’s a hundred-thousand-dollar reward at stake and her Best and Most Fearless Friend, Daisy, is eager to investigate. So together, they navigate the short distance and broad divides that separate them from Russell Pickett’s son, Davis.
Aza is trying. She is trying to be a good daughter, a good friend, a good student, and maybe even a good detective, while also living within the ever-tightening spiral of her own thoughts.
In his long-awaited return, John Green, the acclaimed, award-winning author of Looking for Alaska and The Fault in Our Stars, shares Aza’s story with shattering, unflinching clarity in this brilliant novel of love, resilience, and the power of lifelong friendship.
《Turtles All the Way Down》摘录:
但我开始明白,你的人生是讲述关于你的故事,而不是一个由你讲述的故事。 当然了,你要假装你就是故事的作者。你必须这样做。你这样想:十二点三十七分的时候,单调的铃声在头顶丁零零地响着,我决定现在去吃午餐。但实际上,是铃声决定了你现在去吃午餐。 你认为你是个画家,但其实你是块画布。
