商品描述
You don't remember her--but she remembers you.
Two different women; two different worlds. On the face of it, Emma and Nina have very little in common. Isolated and exhausted by early motherhood, Emma finds her confidence is fading fast. Nina is sophisticated and assured, a successful artist who seems to have it all under control. And yet, when the two women meet, they are irresistibly drawn to each other. As the friendship develops, as Emma gratefully invites Nina into her life, it emerges that someone is playing games-and the stakes could not be higher.
What, exactly, does Nina see in Emma? What does she want? And how far will she go in pursuit of it?
A gripping novel about friendship and identity, about the wild hopes and worst fears of parenthood, about the small and easily forgotten moments that come to define a life, Her is unputdownable-compelling and hauntingly discomfiting.

商品描述(中文翻譯)
你不記得她,但她記得你。
兩個不同的女人;兩個不同的世界。乍看之下,艾瑪(Emma)和妮娜(Nina)幾乎沒有共同點。艾瑪因為早期的母職而感到孤立和疲憊,她的自信心迅速消退。妮娜則是成熟而自信的成功藝術家,似乎一切都掌控在手。然而,當這兩位女性相遇時,她們卻無法抗拒地被彼此吸引。隨著友誼的發展,艾瑪感激地邀請妮娜進入她的生活,卻發現有人在玩弄心機,而賭注無法更高。
妮娜究竟在艾瑪身上看到了什麼?她想要什麼?她會為了追求這些而走多遠?
這是一部引人入勝的小說,探討友誼與身份,父母身份的狂野希望與最糟的恐懼,以及那些小而容易被遺忘的瞬間,這些瞬間卻定義了一生。她是一本讓人無法放下的作品,既引人入勝又令人不安。
