前大半本令人窒息，如果是中文我一章也忍不下去（我对非中文世界文学宽容度之高不失为一种傲慢😅）怀着早点读完早点打三星的心情往下读，读到想打四星，读到想打五星……最后的落脚点想了想还是四星吧。

最膈应的点在于，rebel or dreamer，从头至尾主体都是男性，到后面四星五星的部分，叙事逻辑典型左男；她只在最后那几分钟才实现了客体到主体的转变。

另外，由于刻画太过真实以至于无法分辨是作者会写还是角色及情节纯套了模版；电影感强烈（不知道是不是我看了太多遍星际穿越…）。

最后，身为中国人，很有代入感（以前或是现在）。

Inspiring story depicting the intricacies of mother daughter relationships, and the unique position of women being underestimated and overlooked through the hardships of the Great Depression and the dust bowl.
