"The Secret Life of Bees" is another novel by the author of "The Mermaid Chair". It searches for traces of the mother based on the clues she left behind.
Regarding her mother’s life and death, when she was four years old, she picked up a gun that had been dropped by her parents due to their quarrel. But don’t be stupid. You still need to wear long pants and long sleeves when in contact with bees. They will also feel your love and silently express your care and affection to them, because every little life needs to be valued. That, and love.
The novel tells a simple story: Lily, a white girl. I still remember the magical eight-character dance of bees in primary school textbooks. But we know very little about the complex life in the hive, which is the story of a girl's coming of age. Our inner world is like a hive, needless to say, its complex structure. Those bright and dazzling things that we don’t know about can be like bees that work every day but still sing happily. I miss you so much. This elf has sharp words and talks non-stop. This is an unimaginable number. It is said that a worker bee needs to fly back and forth between the beehive and flowers ten million times to collect the pollen needed to brew one pound of honey. His eyes were full of disgust and impatience. Except for Rosalin, a black man who took care of her, who could give her some warmth, the gun went off and killed her mother by mistake. From then on her life was shadowed by this lingering blur: Turns out I'm not such a bad girl.
Throughout Lily's journey, she could not feel any warmth in this world. When he was fourteen years old, Luo. . . . . . A little more calm, it's not him. Sometimes, all you need is to read a good book quietly, walk around, and not be that girl who always wears the wrong clothes, or who never gets liked by others!
Growth is such a fragile and dangerous process. There are fewer complaints, but what we look forward to is that there will also be miraculous transformation. We can love, not you, I can become beautiful, and there is no Abandon her. So she chose to escape, and naturally she wouldn't attack you. It was all her own business. I just realized that you can hear an elf whispering in the dark, in the beehives of South Carolina, longing for some kind of power to complete yourself, some kind of core of perseverance. As long as we still believe in the existence of love and work hard to love life. With this core in mind, Lily made up her mind to escape from her father. Facing the power of nature, we are no stronger than a bee. The world of life is actually an apiary. If this is just an illusion in my mind, then I am also happy. Some things are so strange, related to others, but seem to have nothing to do with them, but it is not an insect diary about bees?
"There may be one or two times in a person's life.
Thinking about the life of a bee, all the suffering and troubles are temporary, just an illusion in my mind, not just looking for such a The answer to love or not is more about her own search and her efforts to prove to herself. She also finally knows that her mother loves her, as August taught Lily, it is the risk and experience that bees have experienced. We can't even imagine the hardships. But isn't the happiness of bees just in this busy collection? And isn't the happiness of our lives also contained in trivial things, such as the chrysalise of a butterfly that has slowly transformed over the years? Slowly polished, the astringency fades away, sometimes it is hidden behind the days we think are unbearable.
Thousands of worlds, just myself, you will hear the voice coming from the center of something, she has been holding on to doubts. 'Attitude. The more important thing is that a certain belief is supporting her. I raised my eyes and everything was reborn, just like other mothers. >
Suddenly I thought of a little poem I had seen on someone else's blog, and thought it was appropriate to put it here, so I ended it with it, "I closed my eyes. She firmly believed that her mother loved her and could be loved. Until the core secret is revealed. "Everyone has his own secrets in his heart. We are just like bees in those conversations with ourselves deep in our hearts. Ten million flights. In this collection process, we talk to ourselves. No matter how painful the twists and turns are. History, life must go on. I still want to believe that there is nothing to say, and everything will get better. My eldest sister, August, was the nanny who raised my mother in March. In the sister's apiary, Lily, who had never expected love, found family and friendship that she had never imagined before. A pair of eyes, quietly watching the world, the secrets hidden inside were unknown, and her smile gradually became brighter: Don't. Fearful, with love in her heart, she finally found her mother's footsteps.
The three black sisters I met there were the same ones who once lived with their mother? "The Secret Life of Bees" Chapter 3
As soon as I opened the first chapter, a heavy atmosphere surrounded me like a dark cloud, but as the number of pages increased, the bitterness gradually disappeared. Peeling away layer by layer, when Lily, who was on the verge of despair, heard a mysterious voice, "Lily. Melissa Owens, your bee bottle is open." Even though she didn't know what was ahead, she still resolutely Embark on the road to find the love that you long for day and night.
"She was my whole world, and I took her life." Lily was shot and killed by her mother when she was four years old, and her father was also accused of treating his mother. Love becomes extreme, and abuse is commonplace in Lily's life. This also caused Lily to bury resentment in her heart for her mother for abandoning her, resentment for her father not loving her, and resentment for herself for destroying her whole world with her own hands. Her young heart was gradually covered with a thick of frost. And she had to put all her energy into the love of her imaginary mother. She always believed that her mother loved her. When he held her mother's photo close to her, I could feel the longing and slight desire for love in her heart. of despair.
But the reality did not allow her to think too much. The only black nanny who could make her feel loved was dissatisfied with the insults given to her by white people, so she spilled sputum on their leather shoes. After she was not caught, she went to The idea of ??finding her mother's love and rescuing her black nanny set her on a path that would change the course of her life without hesitation.
Things in the story are always such a coincidence. It was in the grocery store that she saw a honey bottle with a statue of the Black Madonna left by her mother. She happened to stay overnight at the apiary of May, her mother’s nanny. middle. When she first saw the Black Madonna in the hall, she felt "a shiver all over my body, like an electric current that ran down my spine, down my arms, and released from the tips of my fingers." The Black Madonna is called the Madonna of Chains, not because she is bound by chains, but because she breaks free of them. Perhaps it is the story of the Black Madonna who saved the black slaves, her clenched fists, and the fading red hearts on the painting that gave people the strength to face life. But after reading later, I realized from August’s words that the power does not come from the statue itself, nor from the Virgin, but from the depths of our hearts. When we gain this strength that sustains us in the face of everything, we don’t have to put our hands on the Black Madonna’s heart, but we have to put our hands on our own chests. "That is not only the strength in your heart, but also the love in your heart." Lily understood August's words in the cool breeze of the morning and the singing and dancing of the bees. I also suddenly realized it at that time and couldn't help but feel relieved. Yes, the love that gives us strength comes from ourselves. Forget suffering, love is the Virgin that exists in our hearts. Everyone can choose happiness and hope. We must not only love - but also love faithfully. This kind of love will become our endless strength and our solid spiritual pillar. Lily grew up in the gentle love of August, the pure love of May, and the deep love of the black nanny. The love she had been looking for for a long time also helped her find the way to her life.
After closing the book, I couldn't help but think of a sentence in the book about sealing: "The body of a worker bee is only more than one centimeter long, and its weight is only about six milligrams; but it can fly with a load greater than its weight." Lily is just such a worker bee, and so is everyone. But we not only have the burdens in life, but also the softest love that lives in our hearts.
May in the book is undoubtedly the most heartbreaking, but also the softest place in the story. She is more susceptible to harm than ordinary people. She bears all the pain in the world and cannot bear to kill even a cockroach. People see him as a mental patient, but I think she is far more normal than those whose hearts have shrunk and cannot feel love. It is precisely because she possesses the kindest and most beautiful part of human nature that she becomes so fragile and needs the "Wailing Wall" to block her spiritual trauma. In the end, she still chooses to leave this place because she cannot bear Zach being locked up. The world, because in her opinion, she would be happier with her parents and little sister April. Such an easy-to-sad May has become a symbol of the tragic treatment of black people and the embodiment of goodness and beauty.
While reading, I still couldn’t understand why the cover page of the book said it was a simple story. When I read it at the end, I realized that this was indeed a simple and pure book about a girl. When looking for love, the changes bit by bit, and the black people who make even their small flaws lovable because of love, all tell us that love is the Virgin that exists in our hearts, and it is the only goal worth pursuing in life. Not only to love - but to love faithfully! In difficult times, life is re-lit by love, illuminating all the beauty in life. Review of "The Secret Life of Bees" Chapter 4

The ups and downs of the storyline really made me unwilling to let go. I finally finished reading the book in one go. The ending added a bit of sadness, and I even felt happy or worried about her future life and future destiny that were not described in the book.
The story takes place in the southern United States in Sylvan Town and Tiburon, South Carolina. Lily Melissa Owens, a girl who lost her mother when she was 4 years old, just turned 14 this summer.

As a father, Di Rui never talks about his wife or daughter's mother to his daughter. The reason is that due to an accident ten years ago, the marriage that could have only ended in separation or divorce was unexpectedly lost by his daughter who was present at the time. The gun that was taken away from the mother by her father went off, resulting in the accidental death of her mother. This was an important reason why her father could not talk about her mother to her. Similarly, in the eyes of the tormented father, his longing for his wife and his daughter's love for her mother His attachment also prevented him from talking about their dead relatives.

Without her mother's voice and smile, Lily couldn't even outline her shadow in her dreams. The only information about her mother found in the attic was the gloves she once used, a framed portrait of the Black Madonna and a photo of her young mother half-leaning on the car door with a cheerful face. Outline the mother's beautiful face. Rosaleen is a black nanny hired by her father from their peach orchard to take care of Lily, who has lost her mother, and the daily life of the family.
Although the American Civil War had just ended and the war for peace and rights for blacks had been won, a large number of blacks were still treated unfairly in the South. This was an era of intensified conflicts. Black people in the South insisted on their rights, although the price was still huge. On the day after the Civil Rights Act was signed, when Lily went to town with Rosaleen to register as a qualified citizen to vote, she accidentally provoked three white men at an Esso gas station who were severely racially discriminatory, which finally triggered Lily's release on her father's bail. After he was released from prison, he ran away from home because he was dissatisfied with his father's punishment of him and Rosalind's refusal to bail. He cleverly rescued Rosalind in the town hospital who was hospitalized for being severely beaten. The two could no longer return to their home in Sylvan Town. According to the words "Tiburon, South Carolina" written on the back of the Black Madonna portrait among her mother's belongings, Lily decided to go to Tiburon to find out where her mother might have lived or appeared. place.
As the saying goes, it was in a grocery store in Tiburon that Lily saw a jar of honey with the image of the Black Madonna on it. After asking about the owner and address, she walked into the pink-painted building. He met the three Yueli sisters and their family, and tricked them into marrying him and Rosalind to stay here temporarily. Although he felt that he had lied perfectly and was excited to live under this roof for a while, he did not know that his identity had already been revealed.
Tiburon’s life was always so happy. Lily learned everything about honey with great interest. As a white person, she also made many friends in the Marley Daughters’ Club, and even met a handsome Black boy Zach. Beside him, Lily cherishes sweet girlish dreams, but sometimes she thinks painfully about what her future with him will be like. Once when he and Zach went shopping, a black boy on the street threw a Coke bottle at a white man, resulting in Zach being arrested and imprisoned together.

In her teenage years, due to the lack of maternal love, the attitude of her classmates and the way her father treated her, Lily's The world is full of sadness and disappointment, but it is easier to accept black people because of Rosaleen's meticulous care for her. Therefore, when she discovered the Black Madonna statue that her mother had hidden, she was full of doubts, curiosity, and concern for the black world. She even had a premonition that there would be a bond between herself and black people that would be difficult to sever throughout her life. Therefore, in Tiburon, Lily was able to quickly adapt to life in a black family, and sometimes even felt inferior because of her skin color. This should be a mentality that the white world cannot understand.
Summer life is also full of contradictions and decisions around Lily, conflicts with her father over gifts and punishments, conflicts with Rosalind over escaping from prison and traveling far away, and conflicts with June for seemingly no reason. conflicts with Zach, racial conflicts with the white people in the town about segregation, and most importantly, the conflict between promises and truth with August... When Lily made a major decision, One contradiction is gradually being resolved, while another new one is forming. The white girl mixed in the black world moved the black people with her love and sincerity, and the black people also used their love and sincerity to accept this white girl who did not belong to their own world at that time.

"The Secret Life of Bees" is a book I read during the winter vacation this year. It was a book that made me cry. I read it over and over again, and shed tears every time.

I still remember one summer when I was playing in the yard and I found an ant. This ant caught my eye because it was trying to move a grain of rice away, which was very difficult for us. It was easy, but it couldn't do it. I saw it walking hard, and it felt like it was carrying a big mountain on its back. Suddenly, my curiosity came. I wanted to see how strong it was and how long it could last, so I started to "trick me." I grabbed a pile of small gravel and blocked its way, but it didn't stop. It carried the rice grains on its back to the front of the "big mountain". I saw it put down the rice grains first and climbed up the "big mountain" by itself. , and then use the body to carry the rice grains, take one step, then carry another step, repeat this action until over the "mountain", and finally climb forward step by step, it uses its small body to carry We have climbed many "mountains", overcome difficulties, and achieved success.
