我叫苏茜。十四岁那年,我被谋杀了。

我被困在完美的天堂里,眼睁睁看着家人在痛苦中迷失,又渐渐地开始忘记。我知道凶手是谁,却无法传达,只能任他逍遥法外。

我当然希望爸爸能彻夜守候,直到永远;但我也希望他放手,让我就此成为过去。

我死之后,他们所经历的一切就像绵延伸展的可爱 的骨头,把大家紧密联结在一起。我终于开始认清,没有我,他们依然可以活得很好,犹如身体中的骨骼,尽管有时会有缺失,但在不可知的未来终将长出新的骨干,重新变得圆满完美。

这是一场漫长的告别。等到说再见的那天,我将吹熄蜡烛,转身离去……

My name was Salmon, like the fish; first name, Susie. I was fourteen when I was murdered on December 6, 1973." So begins the story of Susie Salmon, who is adjusting to her new home in heaven, a place that is not at all what she expected, even as she is watching life on earth continue without her -- her friends trading rumors about her disappearance, her killer trying to cover his tracks, her grief-stricken family unraveling. Out of unspeakable tragedy and loss, The Lovely Bones succeeds, miraculously, in building a tale filled with hope, humor, suspense, even joy.
