skylight confessions《A story about " FAMILY"》

Well for quite a few years I didn't read any novels let alone an English one.Maybe as I grow up I came to realise that those stories are somewhat fake or just unreal. Even if the people in those stories are suffering from great love deepest pains or something. I feel that just have no concern with me. Or I am just too clumsy to feel what others feeleven if they are not someone who really existed.

Talking about the SKYLIGHT CONFESSIONSone of my friend Vivian stated as " it only give me pains". As a pure and kind- hearted girl she felt herself even unable to finish the reading because it pains so deeply.

For someone who is really a watcher not a experiencer I have to say that I adore the way the author is telling the story. Different angles frome different people their destine are closely united even death is not the end of their unite. Love or hate is hauting spirit exists something we feel so strange and even the author didn't bother to reveal the reason well she really doesn't need to. Who care ?

If we have to find a key word instead of using love or hate or fate I'd rather use the word " Family "

Personally I'd like to take the author's purpose as explaing what accounts for a family through the whole book. There are husband and wives they are bond to be together but there seems no love at all at least not discovered until the last. There are betrays but they are finally forgiven. There are rebellious kid and sweet (at least seems to be ) girls .There are funerals births and marriages After all even without love the family still exist in a house just look like a birdcage but really I think it let light and warm in.One can't deny that though maybe one haven't realise it yet.

Confessions John Moody moves readers like me. At last all the confessions and demptions seem to be accompolished by him. A cold selfish practical man who make readers feel that he never care his first wife and Sam.But the result turns out to be out of expectation. Despite the pains and struggles they are suffering from despite his several big mistakes and even if a life can be labeled as a failure he managed to get out. From his inner heart to get out of birdcage to let light and warm in. Then demptions and forgiveness are done. When he died .

To tell the truth this novel doesn't real appeal to me. I am not intrigued by stories about generations and families. But as a perspective to see things from a diverted vision to leatn to understand something I've never made the slightes bit of effort to understand . I read it I think about it and then I wirte it down.
