WAYS TO HIDE IN WINTER
Book ID/图书代码： 08885018C00007
English Summary/英文概要： In the wintery silences of Pennsylvania’s Blue Ridge Mountains, a woman befriends a mysterious foreigner—setting in motion this suspenseful, atmospheric, politically charged debut
After surviving a life-altering accident at twenty-two, Kathleen recuperates by retreating to a remote campground lodge in a state park, where she works flipping burgers for deer hunters and hikers—happy, she insists, to be left alone.
But when a hesitant, heavily accented stranger appears in the dead of winter—seemingly out of nowhere, kicking snow from his flimsy dress shoes—the wary Kathleen is intrigued, despite herself. He says he’s a student from Uzbekistan. To her he seems shell-shocked, clearly hiding from something that terrifies him. And as she becomes absorbed in his secrets, she’s forced to confront her own—even as her awareness of being in danger grows . . .
Steeped in the rugged beauty of the Blue Ridge Mountains, with America’s war on terror raging in the background, Sarah St.Vincent’s Ways to Hide in Winter is a powerful story about violence and redemption, betrayal and empathy . . . and how we reconcile the unforgivable in those we love.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 在宾夕法尼亚州蓝岭山脉寂静的冬日，一名女子与一位神秘的外国人变成了朋友……
22岁时， Kathleen在一场改变一生的事故中幸存下来，之后她回到了州立公园一个偏远的野营地，在那里卖汉堡给猎鹿者和徒步旅行者们。她觉得这样的生活是快乐的。
一个口音很重的陌生人在隆冬出现——他不知道是从哪里冒出来的，还踢着单薄的皮鞋上的雪——小心翼翼的 Kathleen不由自主地被吸引住了。他说他是一名来自乌兹别克斯坦的学生。在她看来，他似乎被吓坏了，显然是在躲避什么令他害怕的东西。当她沉浸在他的秘密之中时，她也不得不面对自己的秘密——即使她意识到自己正处于危险之中……
故事发生在崎岖不平的蓝岭山脉之中，此刻美国反恐战争正在如火如荼的进行之中，本书是一个关于暴力与救赎、背叛与同情的强有力的故事……以及我们如何调和那些我们所爱的人的不可饶恕之处。（LYR）
