Unspeakable: Stories of Survival and Transformation After Trauma

內容簡介

內容簡介 繼暢銷書《The Devil You Know》之後，英國知名神經犯罪學與心理治療專家Gwen Adshead博士再度與作家Eileen Horne合作，新書《Unspeakable》深入探討了語言與沉默如何影響心理創傷的療癒，帶來一場肯定生命價值、打破迷思的探索旅程。一位遺孀不敢再提起亡夫的名字；一位戰俘埋葬了受難的記憶；一名淪為人質的孩子變得沉默不語。當創傷變得「無法言說」時，會發生什麼事？艾德海博士，邀請我們見證她與那些在痛苦生命事件中掙扎的病人並肩作戰的過程。本書取材自她三十多年的臨床實務，《無法言說》(暫譯)闡明了「語言」與「沉默」如何劇烈地影響我們在災難後的復原品質。有時候，最難大聲說出口的話，正是能讓我們獲得自由的關鍵；在艾德海博士的協助與非凡洞察下，這些勇敢的人們一步步走出羞辱與恐懼的陰影，發現生命的新可能。這不是一本關於創傷的書，而是一本關於生存的書。《無法言說》挑戰了當前大眾對創傷的種種誤解，透過記錄病人在身份認同、心靈與思維上的轉化，為「希望」提出了強而有力的證明。'A wise, deep, nuanced and profoundly moving book.' Siri Hustvedt'Thoughtful, important and a reminder that hope belongs to everyone.' Christie WatsonThe Sunday Times bestselling authors of The Devil You Know return with a life-affirming myth busting exploration of trauma, resilience and healing.A widow dares not utter her husband's name. A prisoner of war buries the memories of his ordeal. A child hostage is rendered mute. What happens when trauma goes unspoken?The pioneering psychiatrist and psychotherapist Dr Gwen Adshead invites us to witness her work with patients struggling in the wake of a range of distressing and painful life events. Drawn from over thirty years of clinical practice, Unspeakable illuminates how language - and silence - can dramatically affect the quality of our recovery after disaster. Sometimes the hardest words to say out loud are the very ones to set us free and with Adshead's assistance and extraordinary insight, these courageous people step out of the darkness of shame and fear to discover new possibilities.This is not a book about trauma, it is about survival. In challenging prevailing misconceptions around trauma and by charting the transformation of patient identities, hearts and minds, Unspeakable makes a powerful case for hope.

各界推薦

各界推薦 Unspeakable is a wise, deep, nuanced, and profoundly moving book about traumatic experience and the muteness that so often accompanies it. Every one of Dr. Adshead's patients responds differently to events so terrible they resist telling. And yet, through the dialogue and greater understanding that arrives with therapy, every one of them discovers a way to live on and to speak of what was once unspeakable. -- Siri Hustvedt ― author of MEMORIES OF THE FUTUREA portrait of trauma and how psychotherapy has the power to transform the lives of those who have suffered unimaginable pain. Infused with Gwen Adshead's trademark compassion and radical empathy, this book is thoughtful, important and a reminder that hope belongs to everyone. -- Christie Watson ― author of THE LANGUAGE OF KINDNESS
