「只有蘇菲.金索拉能讓你一邊流淚,一邊放聲大笑……這是我見過作家最勇敢的舉動。一旦拿起就無法放下。」 —— 泰勒.詹金斯.里德(Taylor Jenkins Reid),《黛西與樂團》作者。
「一段極度幽默且動人的愛情故事。」 —— 《衛報》(The Guardian)
「我笑了,也哭了,接著我開始思考生命的意義。這是一部如珠玉般珍貴的傑作。」 —— 喬喬.莫伊絲(Jojo Moyes),《我就要你好好的》作者。
「感人至深,這部作品讓我對生命中微小的喜悅有了全新的體悟。」 —— 《Red》雜誌
「你今年讀到最勇敢的一本書。」 —— 茱迪.皮考特(Jodi Picoult),《姊姊的守護者》作者。
來自暢銷冠軍作家蘇菲.金索拉,一段令人難忘的故事——時而心碎,時而充滿生命力。講述一位知名小說家在面對毀滅性的診斷時,如何學習重新生活與愛。
「《患病是什麼感覺?》(What Does It Feel Like?)雖是小說,卻是我至今最具自傳色彩的作品。夏娃的故事,就是我的故事。」 —— 蘇菲.金索拉
夏娃是一位成功的作家,某天她在醫院病床上醒來,卻完全不記得自己是如何抵達這裡的。守候在側的丈夫解釋,她剛接受了一場大手術,切除了腦部一顆巨大的惡性腫瘤。
隨著夏娃重新學習走路、說話與寫作——並在對抗病魔的同時,糾結於何時、又該如何向心愛的孩子們解釋這一切——她開始回想起生命中最重要的小事:緊緊牽著丈夫的手長距離散步、家庭遊戲之夜,以及看到心儀的洋裝時,永遠毫不猶豫地買下它。
全書由短小精悍的軼事串聯,每一篇都是在試圖回答那些身處悲慟迷宮的人們,最難以啟齒的「不可能的問題」。這部非凡的中篇小說是對生命的讚美,交織著溫暖與幽默——它會揉碎你的心,卻也會再次將它溫柔治癒。
「我為什麼要寫這麼私密的一本書?我一直以來都透過寫作來消化生活。躲在虛構的角色背後,我總將自己的人生轉化為敘事。這或許就是我的療癒方式。寫作是我的快樂泉源,創作這本書雖然過程艱辛,但對我而言極具成就感且充滿療癒。」 —— 蘇菲.金索拉

------------------
From Number One bestselling author Sophie Kinsella, an unforgettable story – by turns heartbreaking and life-affirming – of a renowned novelist facing a devastating diagnosis and learning to live and love anew.
‘What Does It Feel Like? is fiction, but it is my most autobiographical work to date. Eve’s story is my story.’ ― SOPHIE KINSELLA
Eve is a successful novelist who wakes up one day in a hospital bed with no memory of how she got there. Her husband, never far from her side, explains that she has had an operation to remove the large, malignant tumour growing in her brain.
As Eve learns to walk, talk, and write again ― and as she wrestles with her diagnosis, and how and when to explain it to her beloved children ― she begins to recall what’s most important to her: long walks with her husband’s hand clasped firmly around her own, family game nights and always buying that dress when she sees it.
Recounted in brief anecdotes, each one is an attempt to answer the type of impossible questions recognizable to anyone navigating the labyrinth of grief. This extraordinary novella is a celebration of life, shot through with warmth and humour – it will both break your heart and put it back together again.
‘Why did I write such a personal book? I have always processed my life through writing. Hiding behind my fictional characters, I have always turned my own life into a narrative. It is my version of therapy, maybe. Writing is my happy place, and writing this book, although tough going at times, was immensely satisfying and therapeutic for me.’ – SOPHIE KINSELLA
