Summary

This is not a manual. It is not a list of perfect habits or “10 steps to fix your life.” It is more like a messy notebook left open on the table, with scribbled reminders, small stories, and the kind of late-night thoughts you usually only admit to a close friend.Welcome to the Club of Not Knowing is for anyone who has ever felt like they are behind, broken, or just not good at “being a person.” Inside, you will find reflections on anxiety, rest, connection, boundaries, comparison, forgiveness, and the little human contradictions we all carry.Some chapters are raw and wandering. Others are like a deep breath after you realize you have been holding it all day. This book is not about perfection—it is about trying, failing, starting over, and learning to be a little gentler with yourself in the process.If you are looking for something honest, comforting, and a little unpolished—something that reminds you are not the only one figuring things out—this book is for you.

    INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Andrew Klavan explores how artists' imaginative engagement with the darkness can point the way to living beautifully in the midst of a tragic world. 
 “Andrew Klavan's book illuminates even as it explores the deepest darkness, finding truth and beauty in art born of unflinching confrontations with evil.”  -- Daniel McCarthy, editor-in-chief, Modern Age 
Read by the author. 
In his USA Today bestselling The Truth and Beauty, Andrew Klavan explored how the work of great poets helps illuminate the truth of the gospels. Now, the award-winning screenwriter and crime novelist turns his attention to the dark side of human nature to discover how we might find joy and beauty in the world while still being clear-eyed about the evil found in it. 
The Kingdom of Cain looks at three murders in history--including the first murder, Cain's killing of his brother, Abel--and at the art created from imaginative engagement with those horrific events by artists ranging from Fyodor Dostoevsky to Alfred Hitchcock. 
To make beauty out of the world as it is--shot through with evil and injustice and suffering--is the task not just of the artist but, Klavan argues, of every life rightly lived. Examining how that transformation occurs in art grants us a vision for how it can happen in our lives. 
Klavan eloquently argues that it is possible to be clear-eyed about the evil in the world while remaining hope-filled about God's ability to redeem it all.

    内容简介：
本书从句法与形态接口视角主要探讨现代汉语中三个与"得"相关的结构，即带"得"的可能补语句、结果补语句和状态补语句，并对这三类结构做出一个较为统一的考察。研究发现，带"得"的可能补语句、结果补语句及状态补语句受制于很多共同的限制，如该类结构中的动词都不能受方式状语修饰，该类结构都不能使用肯定的命令式等。本研究不仅可以找出某些带"得"的状态补语句与某些带"得"的可能补语句（或结果补语句）之间存在歧义的根源，还可以揭示与"得"相关的这几类句型之间的内部联系及其背后隐藏的普遍语法规律。
作者简介：
汪昌松，北京理工大学外国语学院副教授，研究领域和方向为理论语言学、句法—形态/韵律/语义研究。发表论文多篇，主持完成多项基金课题研究项目。
