Learned by Heart

內容簡介

內容簡介 1805年，14歲的艾莉札在約克的一間女子學校就讀，母親是印度人，父親是英國人，艾莉札知道自己注定格格不入，當她初次踏上英國這塊土地時，還有她的姐姐‧珍陪伴，但現在只剩下她一個人，被父母留在這所學校。直到一個新來的轉學生出現的那天，行事大膽且毫無畏懼的麗絲特，讓艾莉札的生活出現了色彩，而這段相遇也將改變艾莉札的人生…Adding to the already moving, richly told and gripping collection of historical fiction from Emma Donoghue, Learned By Heart is the breathtaking story of two young girls on the margins of life, forging a connection that will last forever. Eliza and Lister have never been this wide-awake in their lives, and the Slope, with its curtains drawn wide, is bright with starlight. They talk in whispers, not to disturb the maids who lie sleeping on the other side of the box room. The question Eliza’s been needing to ask swells like a great berry in her mouth, and all at once she’s not scared to let it out, not scared at all, not scared of anything . . . In 1805 fourteen-year-old Eliza Raine is a school girl at the Manor School for Young Ladies in York. The daughter of an Indian mother and a British father, Eliza was banished to this unfamiliar country as a little girl. When she first stepped off the King George in Kent, Eliza was accompanied by her older sister, Jane, but now she boards alone at the Manor, with no one left to claim her. She spends her days avoiding the attention of her fellow pupils until, one day, a fearless and charismatic new student arrives at the school. The two girls are immediately thrown together and soon Eliza’s life is turned inside out by this strange and curious young woman.
