Someone Else's Child
About This Novel
Jennifer Pan has been a smart, diligent, and obedient daughter since she was a child, an outstanding student, and "someone else's child." She is a very talented piano girl in the eyes of the piano teacher, a strong candidate for figure skating competition in the Winter Olympics, and the holder of all A grades in the school. When she was a teenager, she started by forging a middle school transcript, and then concocted middle school diplomas, college admission notices, scholarship certificates, class notes, campus life, and college diplomas... She used lies to weave a "beautiful life" and became addicted to it. When the lies were gradually exposed, the "Utopia" began to collapse bit by bit. At the age of 24, she planned a parricide murder in cold blood, and a tragedy of family ethics was unfolding. A bizarre case in Canadian judicial history revealed the double life of an Asian child for more than ten years: during the day, he used carefully crafted lies to satisfy the expectations of his strict parents, and at night, he was tossing and turning, racking his brains to weave the story together... As the layers of lies are peeled away, we delve into the crime and punishment of the original family, face our own growth process, and learn love and independence.
