I still remember that red bird with a broken claw in the heavy rain, and my dad took it in. I will never forget it.(展开)

三个部分有互文，顺序的安排，内容的对照也许是权力动态对抗的隐喻。也可以看作是对爱的隐喻。f肯定是不知道爱是什么的，对他而言爱是一种没有目的的占有，以为单方面的“爱”就一定有回应，f就像是m说的，是一个empty space，不带任何目的的囚禁才是真正的可怕。m不是被动的，前几部分还有对f的摆弄，身体在这里，但是日记的内容几乎全部指向外面。但是m不一定就知道爱是什么，她在地下室挣扎着摆脱控制，日记里... 三个部分有互文，顺序的安排，内容的对照也许是权力动态对抗的隐喻。也可以看作是对爱的隐喻。f肯定是不知道爱是什么的，对他而言爱是一种没有目的的占有，以为单方面的“爱”就一定有回应，f就像是m说的，是一个empty space，不带任何目的的囚禁才是真正的可怕。m不是被动的，前几部分还有对f的摆弄，身体在这里，但是日记的内容几乎全部指向外面。但是m不一定就知道爱是什么，她在地下室挣扎着摆脱控制，日记里写的分明就是在外面的世界另外一个男人对她的感情控制，她却像飞蛾扑火一样不自知。是一个很可怕的小说...没有尽头没有理由的囚禁...完全找不到出路。像蝴蝶，反抗得越剧烈，死得越快越惨。为什么要收集蝴蝶呢？人类像f一样没有道理。 (展开)

阴天大风的小镇，和喜欢的人逛书店所得。故事有些恐怖，读书那几日连日阴雨，也是难忘。

好像是来英两年真正从头到尾读完的一本小说。喜欢，真喜欢，等这两日来慢慢剖析。M和F互相伤害导致了彼此的悲剧结局，一种似乎永远对立无解的困境，正是我当下的非常非常感兴趣的一个话题。值得身边的人都读，一起讨论。想起前几天看的Robot dreams，M和F都不懂真正的爱是什么，F是最糟的，小狗其实也不懂真正的爱（只是一种爱的模仿），唯一懂爱的是机器人

本來打算一天50頁的，第三天忍不住看完了。看到中間把窗戶和窗簾打開感受風和陽光🚬美劇《you》的原著是不是靈感來源於這本書啊？
