【文案】
The gripping international bestseller about motherhood gone awry.

Eva never really wanted to be a mother - and certainly not the mother of the unlovable boy who murdered seven of his fellow high school students, a cafeteria worker, and a much-adored teacher who tried to befriend him, all two days before his sixteenth birthday. Now, two years later, it is time for her to come to terms with marriage, career, family, parenthood, and Kevin's horrific rampage in a series of startlingly direct correspondences with her estranged husband, Franklin. Uneasy with the sacrifices and social demotion of motherhood from the start, Eva fears that her alarming dislike for her own son may be responsible for driving him so nihilistically off the rails.

【原创书评】
A captivating fiction! The readers continue with the answer disclosed. Thrilling sensation arises as we watch the vicious and melancholy journey of young Kevin.
As Kevin later proclaimed to the media, the world can be divided into 2 groups--the watchers and the watchee. Both revolting and fascinating, Kevin is no doubt one of the best watchees.
Indeed, the plot line of the book put aside, one could not help but ponder on the amount of attention society so generously bestows on serial killers and psychopaths. Frankly, i became aware of the phenomenon after 8 seasons of <criminal mind>, thinking to myself: ” Gosh , sickos are just creeping everywhere!”
Yet another point of view in the book that strikes me is how taboos don’t really exist. That is to say, taboos only exist in a fictional way. “ The secret is that there isn’t any.” Behind the veils grown-ups so dutifully and pridefully pull close, it’s just plain fat nothing. The entire shit same as the world you know it. So the line which nobody should ever cross, once crossed, would evaporate instantly. In the book, it was described as the line between shooting a person in the eye and shooting an apple.
Certain lines aren’t meant to be crossed for they cannot be uncrossed. Perhaps.

唔，没看过原版小说，倒是看过他的电影，不得不说女王的演技真是让人看过之后好久都会在脑海中挥之不去；
凯文因为跟母亲长期冷漠扭曲的亲情而导致做出反社会的射杀同学，射杀妹妹射杀父亲的暴行，从母亲的角度来看，凯文是那样暴力不可理喻，但从旁观者的角度来看，只能说他是这段不被期待的亲情中的牺牲品，因为凯文的到来对于母亲伊娃来说是完全的意外，没有凯文她可能会有特别丰富多彩的生活，然而有了凯文之后她就要面对走形的身材婴孩的啼哭和无止境的家务，这些都转变成她对凯文本身的厌恶，这是凯文最后无法回头的根源；但其实很难说谁对谁错吧，至少电影呈现的矛盾和对气氛的铺垫烘托本身就非常引人入胜，相比之下，原著只会更加精彩吧^^
