书籍简介

对于读过桑德拉·西斯内罗斯的《芒果街上的房子》和贾斯汀·托雷斯的《我们是动物》的读者来说，这部引人入胜的作品塑造了一个令人难忘的年轻叙述者，以及构成她世界的那些复杂、充满爱、残酷和慷慨的人物。

索菲亚的妈妈承诺她很快就能拥有自己的卧室，可以自由装饰。很快，她就能见到朋友，重返校园，还能吃到超市橱窗里那些色彩缤纷、诱人无比的蛋糕。然而现在，十二岁的索菲亚和妈妈、弟弟拉法一起住在车里。现在，索菲亚的日子就像是西海岸高速公路和商业街的模糊影像，她的母亲四处寻找可以安全过夜的地方。现在，她的母亲在艰难抉择中挣扎，而索菲亚则在陌生人身上捕捉到善意和残酷的瞬间，努力在家庭分崩离析的困境中，为自己开辟一片天地，寻找自我认同。

这部令人难以忘怀、充满诗意的作品，捕捉了经济不安全感下人们生活的种种裂痕，探讨了在流离失所的时代成长意味着什么。小说笔触细腻，情感饱满，《饥饿》是对生存、记忆以及对各种形式的家园的追寻的永恒颂歌。

For readers of Sandra Cisneros' The House on Mango Street and Justin Torres' We the Animals, this striking debut brings to life an unforgettable young narrator and the complicated, loving, cruel, and generous figures that make up her universe.

Sofia's mother promises that she'll have her own bedroom to decorate soon. Soon, too, she'll be able to see her friends, go back to school, and eat the colorful, tempting cakes in the grocery store's display case. For now, though, twelve-year-old Sofia lives with her mother and brother, Rafa, in their car. For now, Sofia's days are a blur of freeways and strip malls across the West Coast as her mother searches for a safe place to park for the night. For now, her mother contemplates impossible choices, while Sofia catches glimpses of kindness and cruelty from strangers, and tries to carve out a space and an identity for herself while grappling with her family's disintegration.

This haunting and lyrical novel captures the fault lines of an existence marked by economic insecurity, exploring what it means to come of age during a moment of displacement. Beautifully rendered and emotionally charged, Hungered is an indelible ode to survival, memory, and the search for home in its many forms.
