内容简介

A #1 Wall Street Journal, Amazon Charts, USA Today, and Washington Post bestseller.

#1 New York Times bestselling author Gregg Olsen’s shocking and empowering true-crime story of three sisters determined to survive their mother’s house of horrors.

After more than a decade, when sisters Nikki, Sami, and Tori Knotek hear the word mom, it claws like an eagle’s talons, triggering memories that have been their secret since childhood. Until now.

For years, behind the closed doors of their farmhouse in Raymond, Washington, their sadistic mother, Shelly, subjected her girls to unimaginable abuse, degradation, torture, and psychic terrors. Through it all, Nikki, Sami, and Tori developed a defiant bond that made them far less vulnerable than Shelly imagined. Even as others were drawn into their mother’s dark and perverse web, the sisters found the strength and courage to escape an escalating nightmare that culminated in multiple murders.

Harrowing and heartrending, If You Tell is a survivor’s story of absolute evil—and the freedom and justice that Nikki, Sami, and Tori risked their lives to fight for. Sisters forever, victims no more, they found a light in the darkness that made them the resilient women they are today—loving, loved, and moving on.

    一个母亲怎么可以如此残忍地对待自己的孩子呢,在她每日的折磨之下,她的孩子们却发展出了强力的纽带。整本书有大半都是母亲如何操纵家人,摧毁他们反抗的意志,每天折磨着家人,甚至闯入他们生活的外人也难逃毒手。而孩子们在这种绝境之下居然能发展出相亲相爱的纽带关系,直到真相大白。我是直到最后才知道这居然是一个真实的故事。畅销书作者采访了很多当事人,甚至那个在狱中的母亲,作者在最后讲到,哪怕坐了快二十年牢,这母亲仍然会玩弄他,操纵人类以为乐趣。2022年,这人渣母亲就要出狱了。04-11

    美国版的《被抹去的一家》,非虚构,即使隔着一种语言,中间不少段落还是太骇人听闻了。讲的是一个虐待成性的女人,折磨自己的亲生女儿、侄子和朋友,唆使丈夫替她杀人。三个女儿幸存了下来,但其他三人被虐致死,另一人死因成谜。日本那个虐待狂被判死刑,直至今日还未执行。美国这位只判了22年,今年已经出狱。这世界有时并无正义可言。最近看了好多讲恶的书,《被抹去的一家》《绝叫》《黑色皮革手册》,导致我上周精神状态都不怎么健康。读原版真的费劲。“这个词我刚才涂过,啥意思来着”“搞半天这个词我昨天涂过了”“哎这和刚才那个是一个词根我咋没认出来”“我确定这个词我涂过很多次了,到底是啥”,反反复复就是这种体验。但纪实还是好读,希望明年能看明白几本虚构类小说。12-29

    补标2022:一个从小到大未尝过任何约束滋味的母亲。看完对心理学突然很好奇,成功施加PUA需要什么要素,为啥不同的人都无法在Shelly面前坚持自己?三个女儿的做法也很申神奇,果然孩子对父母的爱才是无条件的。01-01
  • 背着虚包回家去
    令我毛骨悚然的是,皱着眉阅读时突然想起这是一本纪实类文学。作者的文字拳拳到肉,我在内心不停尖叫,仿佛能感受到他们身上的疼痛(虽然不及他们实际受到的伤害的千千千千万分之一)。她伤害他们,就像在玩弄破损不堪的的布偶,还好三个女儿足够勇敢和坚强,还好她们彼此的感情纽带足够强韧,庆幸她们还能寻求外婆的帮助。而我作为一个读者,真的很想跳进书里掐死她。08-18

    上班摸鱼读的,文笔实在太差,纯流水账,能把一个故事硬抻长到一本书的长度也挺牛逼的08-16
