Taradiyi次踏入教室时已经17岁了。她出生于爱达荷州偏僻山区中的摩门教集聚地,他们是所谓幸存主义一族,相信摩门教启示录中末日降临的说法,拒绝教育,拒绝现代医学。Tara自出生以来没看过医生也不打疫苗,甚至没有出生证。Tara的母亲作过接生婆,有些生育和草药知识。全家赖以生存的,是父亲的废旧汽车部件回收站,六个孩子从小就在回收站帮工。Tara成长在这样一个与世隔绝的环境中,从未受过教育,家中兄长出现暴力倾向,也无人干涉。 直到她另外一个哥哥独自离家上大学,并告诉了她大山之外的世界,Tara下定决心,要努力过上新的生活。她自学数学、语法、科学,参加ACT考试,并被杨百翰大学录取。在那里,她学习了心理学、哲学、政治和历史。对知识的渴求彻底改变了Tara,带她走入哈佛、剑桥,也让她和家乡亲人越走越远。Educated记录了Tara一步步探索自我,叩问自我,最终和自己和解的过程,也真正揭示了知识和教育的力量。

Book Contents 内容简介
1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER An unforgettable memoir about a young girl who kept out of school leaves her survivalist family and goes on to earn a PhD from Cambridge UniversityA coming of age memoir reminiscent of The Glass Castle O The Oprah Magazine
Tara Westover is living proof that some people are flat out boots always laced up indomitable USA Today
The extremity of Westover s upbringing emerges gradually through her telling which only makes the telling more alluring and harrowing The New York Times Book Review
Westover brings readers deep into this world a milieu usually hidden from outsiders The Economist
Tara Westover was seventeen the first time she set foot in a classroom Born to survivalists in the mountains of Idaho she prepared for the end of the world by stockpiling home canned peaches and sleeping with her head for the hills bag In the summer she stewed herbs for her mother a midwife and healer and in the winter she salvaged metal in her father s junkyard
Her father distrusted the medical establishment so Tara never saw a doctor or nurse Gashes and concussions even burns from explosions were all treated at home with herbalism The family was so isolated from mainstream society that there was no one to ensure the children received an education and no one to intervene when an older brother became violent
When another brother got himself into college and came back with news of the world beyond the mountain Tara decided to try a new kind of life She taught herself enough mathematics grammar and science to take the ACT and was admitted to Brigham Young University There she studied psychology politics philosophy and history learning for the first time about pivotal world events like the Holocaust and the Civil Rights Movement Her quest for knowledge transformed her taking her over oceans and across continents to Harvard and to Cambridge University Only then would she wonder if she d traveled too far if there was still a way home
Educated is an account of the struggle for self invention It is a tale of fierce family loyalty and of the grief that comes from severing one s closest ties With the acute insight that distinguishes all great writers Westover has crafted a universal coming of age story that gets to the heart of what an education is and what it offers the perspective to see one s life through new eyes and the will to change it
