About This Novel
"I understand," she said. When will she learn not to say "I understand" to things she knows nothing about? The elder sister leaves her destiny to marriage, and the younger sister pursues knowledge and freedom, but neither of them can live a happy life. Is this a human dilemma, or is this only true for women? ? After the early release of the influential "Revolutionary Road" and "Eleven Kinds of Solitude", Yates's creative career went through a period of silence. "Easter Parade" once again demonstrates Yates's extraordinary creative strength. This work contains astonishing breadth and weight. Yates' usual elegant and tragic perspective flows through the plain and restrained narrative, tearing apart the fate and dreams of the two sisters bit by bit. It is "both cruel and heartwarming, heartbreaking and cruel." "This is Yates's best novel." As children, Sarah and Emily were two very different girls. In Emily's eyes, her rational sister is always superior. She is jealous of her sister's relationship with her father (who left them due to divorce) and her sister's seemingly happy marriage. Emily chose a path for herself that was not so safe and unconventional. All the romantic affairs could not really satisfy her. Although the bond that binds the sisters has always existed, the distance between them has grown further and further until, finally, a tragic event throws their relationship into the center of a storm...
