How can we prevent such tragedies? Perhaps we can start by encouraging people to get counseling instead of allowing resentments to turn them into raging lunatics. I can’t help but question what led these individuals to commit these acts. In the last decade, we have seen more senseless killing rampages than ever before. The conclusion made me more cognizant of the lack of humanity we currently see in today’s world. The end of the novel gave me a sick feeling deep inside my heart and soul. It is beyond comprehension that he can work as a psychotherapist. The character Theo Faber is a menace to society. It horrifies me that so many people enjoyed this novel. The story of The Silent Patient made me lose my faith in humanity. I like books that uplift the human spirit and bring hope. Things could have turned out differently had Theo confronted his wife about her infidelity. Her transgressions took her husband down a twisted path of revenge. Third, being deceitful always wreaks havoc when you least expect it. The psychotherapist Theo Faber comes across as a genuine person who wants to help, but he has a sinister heart full of malice. Not everyone has your best interest at heart. Second, I learned to be careful whom you trust. Holding on to resentment might trigger dangerous aggression towards others. Do not allow hatred to fester like cancer in your heart. If someone wronged you, go to that person and talk things out until you resolve the problem. However, I learned some valuable lessons reading The Silent Patient.įirst, it is always best to be honest. Why is Alicia silent? Why doesn’t she talk? Valuable Lesson The thing that infuriated me the most was that the entire book is about one simple question. The author does a great job weaving the story, but only to disappoint me in the end. I could not put the book down because I wanted to find out why Alicia killed her husband. He has high hopes that if he can get Alicia to resume talking he can figure out why she killed her husband. Theo Faber, the criminal psychotherapist, goes on a mission to get Alicia to talk again. How on earth can a woman living a perfect life commit such a hideous murder against the love of her life? I felt compassion for Alicia. I believe Alicia was not in her right mind when she murdered her husband. Next, the author goes on a mission to show why Alicia murdered her spouse, but first we must find out why Alicia suddenly stopped talking. The reader encounters Alicia Berenson, who has brutally murdered her beloved husband.
The Silent Patient, written by Alex Michaelides, took me on a journey of questioning the lack of humanity in the hearts of some people. In most instances, reading can help shape our thinking negatively or positively.
