英文简介:
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * GOOD MORNING AMERICA BOOK CLUB PICK * When a father goes missing, his family’s desperate search leads them to question everything they know about him and one another in this thrilling page-turner, a deeply moving portrait of a family in crisis from the award-winning author of Miracle Creek.
Belletrist Book Club Pick * Finalist for the New American Voices Award * “This is a story with so many twists and turns I was riveted through the last page.
“–Jodi Picoult One of the Most Anticipated Books of the Season: The New York Times * Los Angeles Times * Oprah Quarterly * Time * St.
Louis Post Dispatch * Lit Hub * Publishers Weekly * CrimeReads * ABC News * USA Today “A brilliant, satisfying, compassionate mystery that is as much about language and storytelling as it is about a missing father.
I loved this book.
“–Gabrielle Zevin, author of Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow “I fell in love with the fascinating, brilliant family at the center of this riveting book.
“–Ann Napolitano, author of Hello Beautiful “We didn’t call the police right away.
” Those are the electric first words of this extraordinary novel about a biracial Korean American family in Virginia whose lives are upended when their beloved father and husband goes missing.
Mia, the irreverent, hyperanalytical twenty-year-old daughter, has an explanation for everything–which is why she isn’t initially concerned when her father and younger brother Eugene don’t return from a walk in a nearby park.
They must have lost their phone.
Or stopped for an errand somewhere.
But by the time Mia’s brother runs through the front door bloody and alone, it becomes clear that the father in this tight-knit family is missing and the only witness is Eugene, who has the rare genetic condition Angelman syndrome and cannot speak.
What follows is both a ticking-clock investigation into the whereabouts of a father and an emotionally rich portrait of a family whose most personal secrets just may be at the heart of his disappearance.
Full of shocking twists and fascinating questions of love, language, and human connection, Happiness Falls is a mystery, a family drama, and a novel of profound philosophical inquiry.
With all the powerful storytelling she brought to her award-winning debut, Miracle Creek, Angie Kim turns the missing-person story into something wholly original, creating an indelible tale of a family who must go to remarkable lengths to truly understand one another.

我喜欢这本书。
”——加布里埃尔·泽文，《明天、明天、明天》的作者 “我爱上了这本引人入胜的书中心的迷人、辉煌的家庭。
”——安·纳波利塔诺，作家Hello Beautiful “我们没有立即报警。
”这是这部非凡小说中激动人心的第一句话，讲述了弗吉尼亚州一个混血韩裔美国家庭的故事，当他们深爱的父亲和丈夫失踪后，他们的生活被彻底颠覆。
米娅，这个不敬、过度分析的二十岁女儿，对一切都有自己的解释——这就是为什么当她的父亲和弟弟尤金在附近的公园散步没有回来时，她最初并不担心。
他们肯定丢了手机。
或者在某个地方停下来办事。
但当米娅的哥哥血淋淋地独自冲进前门时，很明显这个紧密的家庭中的父亲失踪了，唯一的目击者是尤金，他患有罕见的遗传病天使综合症并且不能说话。
接下来的故事既是对一位父亲下落的紧张调查，也是对一个家庭的情感丰富的描绘，而这个家庭最私人的秘密可能正是父亲失踪的核心原因。
《幸福降临》充满了关于爱情、语言和人际关系的令人震惊的曲折和引人入胜的问题，是一部悬疑剧、一部家庭剧，也是一部深刻的哲学探究小说。
安吉·金 (Angie Kim) 在她的获奖处女作《奇迹溪》中讲述了充满震撼力的故事，将失踪人员的故事变成了完全原创的故事，创造了一个不可磨灭的故事，讲述了一个家庭必须竭尽全力才能真正理解彼此的故事。
