你当像鸟飞往你的山 | Educated: A Memoir by Tara Westover mobi epub azw3 pdf audiobook 英文电子书有声书音频下载

An unforgettable memoir in the tradition of The Glass Castleabout a young girl who, kept out of school, leaves her survivalist family and goes on to earn a PhD from Cambridge University

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 in her father’s junkyard. Her father forbade hospitals, so Tara never saw a doctor or nurse.文章源自：力哥爱英语（ienglish521.com）力哥爱英语-https://ienglish521.com/933.html

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 one of Tara’s older brothers became violent. Then, lacking any formal education, Tara began to educate herself. 文章源自：力哥爱英语（ienglish521.com）力哥爱英语-https://ienglish521.com/933.html

She taught herself enough mathematics and grammar to be admitted to Brigham Young University, where she studied history, learning for the first time about important 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. Only then would she wonder if she’d traveled too far, if there was still a way home. 文章源自：力哥爱英语（ienglish521.com）力哥爱英语-https://ienglish521.com/933.html

Educated is an account of the struggle for self-invention. It is a tale of fierce family loyalty, and of the grief that comes with severing the closest of 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.文章源自：力哥爱英语（ienglish521.com）力哥爱英语-https://ienglish521.com/933.html

只有我知道自己的真面目：我来自一个极少有人能想象的家庭。我的童年由垃圾场的废铜烂铁铸成，那里没有读书声，只有起重机的轰鸣。不上学，不就医，是父亲要我们坚持的忠诚与真理。父亲不允许我们拥有自己的声音，我们的意志是他眼中的恶魔。文章源自：力哥爱英语（ienglish521.com）力哥爱英语-https://ienglish521.com/933.html
