内容简介
······
Acclaimed for their searing wit and their deep humanity, the Patrick Melrose novels are one of the major achievements in English fiction.
They follow Patrick through his shattered, savage childhood, his drug-addicted and haunted twenties, and into the complexities of middle age. As he negotiates the death of his parents, the compromises of marriage, and the fraught tenderness of eventual fatherhood, Patrick battles at first to stay ahead of his past, and then to find release from it.
Told with St Aubyn's astonishing precision, incomparable humour, and unnerving insight, Patrick's story—of a man who struggles to live a self-determined life, and who after many years begins to sense the possibility of liberation—takes on a universal resonance.

看完剧来读的……小说的细节描写更多，调子也更加阴郁。小说里22岁的Melrose基本处在一种麻木混乱的状态，完全看不出自救意图地沉浸在毒品的空虚中。本尼演的男主至少自救意图明显，想戒毒的打算始终贯穿，对自己的人生还有痛感和知觉，这就已经不知道多光明了。一方面空虚沉沦玩世不恭，另一方面渴望救赎向往新生。人啊，就是这样在泥潭的现实和美好的理想里面不停的挣扎……突然想到王尔德的一句诗：W…
细小情节的构建太震撼了！
看剧第一集看到一半就压抑地看不下去，书更压抑，细节的描写真是让人喘不过气。
“we are always the veils that veil us from ourselves.”
