好書分享-別讓我走(Never let me go)

 海爾森一定有祕密!

  就算你以為知道了真相,但裹著糖衣的「善意謊言」,到底有多真……

  海爾森表面上看來是一所迷人的英國寄宿學校,遺世而獨立。學生皆能受到良好的照護與協助,並且在藝術與文學方面訓練有素,完全符合這個世界對於他們的期望。但是,奇怪的是,他們從未學習任何有關外面世界的事物,對於外界也少有接觸。

  在海爾森的校區內,凱西從女童成長為一名年輕女性,然而卻要到了她和露絲、湯米兩位朋友離開學校這個安全國度以後,才真正明瞭學校的全部真相,而且逐漸明白記憶中無瑕的成長過程,處處皆是無法追尋的惶惑與駭人的問號;他們的壽命將會隨著「器官捐獻」而慢慢步入死亡……

  一個扣人心弦的謎題和一則教人心碎的愛情故事,《別讓我走》可能是石黑一雄至今最感人、影響最深的一部作品。本書不但承襲了石黑一雄一貫的典雅文風,卻也尖銳的闡明人性的脆弱與希望,是一部巧妙融合了推理、懸疑、科幻與愛情元素的傑作。

Team 16 我們比賽的歌(Apologize)

I'm holding on your rope,
Got me ten feet off the ground
I'm hearing what you say but I just can't make a sound
You tell me that you need me
Then you go and cut me down, but wait
You tell me that you're sorry
Didn't think I'd turn around, and say...

It's too late to apologize, it's too late
I said it's too late to apologize, it's too late

I'd take another chance, take a fall
Take a shot for you
And I need you like a heart needs a beat
But it's nothing new
I loved you with a fire red-
Now it's turning blue, and you say...
"Sorry" like the angel heaven let me think was you
But I'm afraid...

It's too late to apologize, it's too late
I said it's too late to apologize, it's too late

It's too late to apologize, it's too late
I said it's too late to apologize, it's too late
It's too late to apologize, yeah
I said it's too late to apologize, yeah

I'm holdingon your rope,
Got me ten feet off the ground
