具體描述
In the Dream House is Carmen Maria Machado’s engrossing and wildly innovative account of a relationship gone bad, and a bold dissection of the mechanisms and cultural representations of psychological abuse. Tracing the full arc of a harrowing relationship with a charismatic but volatile woman, Machado struggles to make sense of how what happened to her shaped the person she was becoming.
And it’s that struggle that gives the book its original structure: each chapter is driven by its own narrative trope―the haunted house, erotica, the bildungsroman―through which Machado holds the events up to the light and examines them from different angles. She looks back at her religious adolescence, unpacks the stereotype of lesbian relationships as safe and utopian, and widens the view with essayistic explorations of the history and reality of abuse in queer relationships.
Machado’s dire narrative is leavened with her characteristic wit, playfulness, and openness to inquiry. She casts a critical eye over legal proceedings, fairy tales, Star Trek, and Disney villains, as well as iconic works of film and fiction. The result is a wrenching, riveting book that explodes our ideas about what a memoir can do and be.

##2.5星吧，我老瞭
評分我們queers也是人，當然也會PUA和傢庭暴力。夾敘夾議，語言優美而脆弱，但還是感覺敘事得星星點點、鋪墊不太夠，令人有些感同身受，但又有些支離破碎、進展有些突然（可能也是篇幅小的緣故）。可能是迴憶錄的原因，女主的視角非常限定，所以顯得女朋友就像一個沒有心的神經病和怪物。我寫文章時也常常這樣，豐沛地錶達自己的視角和情感，以及對周圍人言行的無措和不解，對身邊的信息感到很passive、overwhelmed。我最近漸漸覺得這其實是作者本身不大能觀察和分析預測和總結周圍人行為語言和性格的緣故，換句話說就是有點self-focused、情商比較一般。我也想提高一下。
評分##喜歡作者解構這個題材的方式，很有啓發性和想象力。文本語言缺點兒靈氣。
評分##This demonstrates how pain and powerlessness being written in a beautiful way can be so touching in a melancholic way.
評分##我的2019閱讀最佳，希望能有人翻譯中文版。書的架構和語言固然好，但更可貴的是把同性親密關係間的暴力這個經常在社會討論裏麵被掩蓋起來的題材寫齣來瞭。
評分##Been there as well.
評分##writing is pretentious
評分##Memoir的解構寫法。更可貴的是對queer群體（尤其lesbian）內的親密關係暴力的描繪。迴顧自身經曆的同時，更是對二次深櫃的沉默賦予講述的語言。
評分##作者說她在灣區的dating不成功因為“Bay Area lesbians are pretty testy about the whole bisexuality thing”. (￣▽￣)”我隻覺得灣區人好敏銳！！附注裏麵說到女權主義理論一直不願正視les伴侶中存在的暴力和虐待，越是要麼對虐待現象視而不見，要麼試圖把虐待者從”真女人“群體中劃分齣去，說這些人之所以虐待伴侶是因為她們的內心被男性氣質汙染瞭。作者呼籲不要把les關係宣傳成烏托邦，les也是人，也有人的陰暗麵和劣根性，正視les中的傢暴現象，承認受害者遭受的創傷和虐待是真實的，法律對傢暴受害者的保護纔會惠及les群體。
