确实出于对作者本人的好奇翻开了这一本。在想人们责备她，责备她没有让两个孩子活在“热气腾腾的家庭氛围”里时，她写母亲与自己已死的孩子对话："Mommy, you know that’s a cliché." "What if life could be saved by clichés? What if life must be lived by clichés?" 是否也存在一种可能是孩子率先选择了拒绝这样的生活而投身于哲思？人们是否无法想象一个有着自由意志选择自己死亡的孩子，也有着自由意志能够选择自己的生活？

The week before, I had explained to a friend that Nikolai could fill a space better than the rest of us combined. We had imagined a life in the house together, his cookies and cakes baking in the oven, his flowers blossoming in the garden, his music filling the house, his leaving and homecoming both cherished because what we had wanted most for him was the liberty to depart and the freedom to return. Mommy, I’m going to live with you until I turn seventy-three, he had said when he was three. No, no, I had said, you’ll change your mind. Soon after, not yet four, he had changed his mind. I’m ready to move out, he had told me. No, no, I had said, you’re still young.
看得好伤心，但是她写出来的这个早慧的年轻的复杂的小孩真的很好看…
