????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.

????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....
兩位主角從小就沒有得到過愛，而此為一切痛苦的根源。正如書中所說：One of the hardest things to admit is that we weren't loved when we needed it most. It's a terrible dealing, the pain of not being loved. 結(jié)局非常非常出乎意料，很精彩。雖然一直對治療師Theo的印象就不太好，但著實(shí)沒想到他處理問題的方法竟能如此“un-therapist-like”，也沒想到Alicia殺害丈夫的事件竟和他如此相關(guān)....
很出色的psychological thriller。劇情很吸引人，聽著聽著就忍不住想繼續(xù)往下看。雙線并行的情節(jié)，加上不可靠的第一人稱敘述，讓人既容易沉浸其中，又容易被描述欺騙。Theo的敘述故意遺漏時(shí)間，讓人誤以為抓出軌發(fā)生在現(xiàn)在，其實(shí)是七年前，最后反轉(zhuǎn)出現(xiàn)的時(shí)候確實(shí)讓我大吃一驚。角色塑造也很鮮明，但感覺有的角色著墨過少，我還挺想知道m(xù)ax以及其他人之后的結(jié)局。不知道是不是作者從業(yè)的原因，整本書有很強(qiáng)的畫面感，場景和人物感覺仿佛清晰地出現(xiàn)在眼前。另外narrator講得太出色了，很為故事加分。
聲音、描寫、人物絕絕子；只是女主diary杜撰性有一點(diǎn)強(qiáng)。
第n次重復(fù)??nice 又來聽了
非常intriguing的故事，讓人想一直聽下去，很喜歡
真的妹想到。 讀的也很棒
著實(shí)沒猜到結(jié)局，stunning twists and turns
童年時(shí)遭受過心理傷害，原本應(yīng)該成為救贖的美好愛情遭遇背叛，成了壓跨駱駝的最后一根稻草，毀滅了才華橫溢、心思細(xì)膩的女主。這個(gè)沉重傷感而情節(jié)起伏跌宕的故事，在兩位聲線優(yōu)美的朗讀者聲情并茂演繹下，幾乎能聽到水晶般的心一點(diǎn)點(diǎn)裂開直到破碎的聲音。
謝謝主播分享！最后的簡短采訪還是個(gè)小彩蛋哈哈
超級好，謝謝播主分享
