“这是一本关于信仰、坚韧和爱的坚韧的励志、亲密的回忆录。在这个感人的故事中,一对年轻夫妇看到他们的生活在眨眼之间被改变了,并学会了重新找到爱。艾莉森·帕塔基怀着五个月的身孕,在飞往他们的“婴儿月”的飞机上,当她的丈夫问他的眼神是否奇怪时,她转向他,看着他突然失去意识。在一次紧急着陆后,她发现戴夫——一名健康的30岁运动员和外科住院医生——患上了罕见的危及生命的中风。接下来艾莉森知道的是,她独自坐在北达科他州法戈市的急诊室里,等着听到她丈夫是否能活过今晚的消息。当戴夫醒来时,他无法记住一个小时又一个小时的记忆,更不用说从一天到第二天了。当戴夫在飞机上失去意识时,艾莉森已经失去了她所了解和喜爱的戴夫。几个月后,她发现自己既要照顾一个新生儿,又要照顾一个生病的丈夫,在对未来的恐惧中挣扎。为了理解新现实的痛苦和混乱,艾莉森开始每天给戴夫写信。她不仅要努力理解围绕在她身边的那些深不可测的经历,而且她的信会给戴夫提供他自己无法形成的记忆。 She was writing to preserve their past, protect their present, and fight for their future. Those letters became the foundation of this beautiful, intimate memoir. And in the process, she fell in love with her husband all over again. This is a manifesto for living, an ultimately uplifting story about the transformative power of faith and resilience. It’s a tale of a man’s turbulent road to recovery, the shifting nature of marriage, and the struggle of loving through pain and finding joy in the broken places. Praise for Beauty in the Broken Places “Bold and commendable . . . A strength of this memoir is [Allison Pataki’s] scrupulous honesty.”—USA Today “A memoir about . . . determination and gratitude, and the value of putting one foot in front of another during a crisis.”—The Washington Post “Heart-wrenching.”—Women’s Health “Powerful and immersive . . . Pataki delivers an insightful look at how two people faced a life-altering test as a team ‘fighting to make the dreams of our future possible.’”—Publishers Weekly (starred review)
