防詐3要訣：不聽信、不操作、掛斷電話 
內容簡介
「極富野心……Flournoy 用一種既寬廣又私密、既幽默又令人心碎的筆調，描繪友情、家庭與家的複雜性。我非常喜歡這本書。」
——布莉特·班奈特（Brit Bennett），《失蹤的另一半》《母親們》作者
**《The Wilderness》是國家圖書獎決選作家安琪拉·弗勞諾伊（Angela Flournoy）**眾所期待的第二部小說——一部描繪五位黑人女性橫跨二十年深厚情誼的世代代表作，記錄她們從青春早期邁入中年之間，那段既令人暈眩又處處風險的生命階段。
Desiree、Danielle、January、Monique 與 Nakia——五位正值二十出頭的女性，正站在人生的起點：職涯剛展開、婚姻初成形、初為人母、在紐約與洛杉磯開啟城市生活。
她們一同走過這片「荒野」，那是人生中現實與自由、選擇與後果交織的過渡期——既難以預測，又令人心醉神迷。
-
Desiree 與 Danielle 是一對姐妹，但共同的成長經歷未能消除彼此的隔閡，她們各自以不同方式舔舐家庭帶來的舊傷。
-
January 和一位「好男人」交往，但她對這段關係始終抱持矛盾，甚至在意外懷孕後也未釐清內心的情感。
-
Monique 是圖書館員與部落客，在公開抨擊她任職的大學試圖美化過去的種族歷史後，意外爆紅網路。
-
Nakia 正努力經營自己的餐廳事業，不願依賴她上中產家庭的資源——儘管他們經常質疑她的人生選擇是否「值得」。
從 2000 年代末期走到 2020 年代後段，隨著這群女性從年輕步入成熟，她們也不斷摸索：在這個充滿政治動盪、經濟與環境不穩、社會急遽轉變的美國現代社會中，彼此的存在究竟意味著什麼？
《The Wilderness》是弗勞諾伊繼廣受好評的處女作《透納之家》（The Turner House）後，再次展現她文學實力的作品。這部小說猶如一面萬花筒，透過機智與充滿電力的語言，細膩描繪了人生中最深刻的連結，往往就藏在那片糾結又不確定的——友情荒野之中。
"Wonderfully ambitious.... Flournoy explores the complexity of friendship, family, and home in a voice that is expansive yet intimate, humorous yet devastating. I loved this book." — Brit Bennett, author of The Vanishing Half and The Mothers
An era-defining novel about five Black women over the course of their twenty-year friendship, as they move through the dizzying and sometimes precarious period between young adulthood and midlife—in the much-anticipated second book from National Book Award finalist Angela Flournoy.
Desiree, Danielle, January, Monique, and Nakia are in their early twenties and at the beginning. Of their careers, of marriage, of motherhood, and of big-city lives in New York and Los Angeles. Together, they are finding their way through the wilderness, that period of life when the reality of contemporary adulthood—overwhelming, mysterious, and full of freedom and consequences—swoops in and stays.
Desiree and Danielle, sisters whose shared history has done little to prevent their estrangement, nurse bitter family wounds in different ways. January’s got a relationship with a “good” man she feels ambivalent about, even after her surprise pregnancy. Monique, a librarian and aspiring blogger, finds unexpected online fame after calling out the university where she works for its plans to whitewash fraught history. And Nakia is trying to get her restaurant off the ground, without relying on the largesse of her upper middle-class family who wonder aloud if she should be doing something better with her life.
As these friends move from the late 2000’s into the late 2020’s, from young adults to grown women, they must figure out what they mean to one another—amid political upheaval, economic and environmental instability, and the increasing volatility of modern American life.
The Wilderness is Angela Flournoy’s masterful and kaleidoscopic follow-up to her critically acclaimed debut The Turner House. A generational talent, she captures with disarming wit and electric language how the most profound connections over a lifetime can lie in the tangled, uncertain thicket of friendship.
