<p>《牵绳、爱与谎言》作者：Marianne Middelveen</p>
<p>在《牵绳、爱与谎言》中，作者 Marianne Middelveen 以疫情的紧张局势为背景，描绘了一场家庭危机，涵盖了秘密情事、兽医紧急情况，以及涉及一只猎犬、一只斗牛犬混血和一只心爱的家猫的不幸事件，最终以一场撕裂社区的暴力行为告终。她对疫情生活的压力进行了社会评论，展示了共同的压力如何导致婚姻破裂和社区冲突，同时突显了伴侣动物在稳定主人情绪方面所扮演的情感角色。</p>
<p>“疫情迫使我们孤立，使我们的宠物成为我们主要的倾诉对象。我想探讨这种强烈的共同生活如何放大我们的人性缺陷——我们的不忠、我们的偏见、我们的孤独——在我们宠物纯粹、无条件的爱的背景下，” Middelveen 说。“我们与动物之间无条件的纽带是我们高度有条件的人际关系最锋利的镜子。”</p>
<p>Middelveen 以其科学研究和微生物学背景而闻名，她曾处理与莱姆病及相关皮肤病 Morgellons 病相关的争议。她的工作曾出现在包括《皮肤深处：关于 Morgellons 的斗争》、《NBC Left Field》、《未解之谜》和《我们的皮肤 2：出现》在内的纪录片中。</p>
<p>“作为一名科学家，我寻找模式，在写这部小说时，我看到了一个深刻的模式，” Middelveen 说，“即使人类社会失败，我们与伴侣动物之间的忠诚依然是一个恒定的、稳定的力量。这就是故事最终找到其核心的地方。”</p>

</div><p>, /PRNewswire/ -- It's June 2021, and as the COVID pandemic rages on, the residents of Woodview Terraces in Calgary are doing their best to cope with the uncertainty and lockdowns. It's a quiet neighborhood that's been divided into two parts: one for the wealthy and one for the less fortunate. With more time on their hands, the residents have switched their focus from socializing and commuting to working from home, gardening and adopting dogs. But there is only one problem: their shared interest in dogs has not only united them but also created unforeseen conflicts. As case numbers decline and the economy surges to life again, neighborhood gossip and unexpected canine escalates discord between the neighbors, resulting in a tragedy that changes everything.</p>

<p>“Leashes, Love, and Lies” by Marianne Middelveen</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>《牵绳、爱与谎言》作者：Marianne Middelveen</p>
</div><p>In &#34;Leashes, Love, and Lies,&#34; author Marianne Middelveen relies on the tension of the pandemic as the stage for a domestic crisis that encompasses secret affairs, veterinary emergencies, and an unfortunate series of events involving a hunting dog, a pit bull mix, and a beloved house cat, ultimately culminating in an act of violence that tears the community apart. She creates a social commentary on the pressures of pandemic life, illustrating how shared stress can lead to fractured marriages and community strife, while simultaneously highlighting the emotional role companion animals play in grounding their owners.</p>

</div><p>&#34;The pandemic forced us into isolation, making our pets our primary confidantes. I wanted to explore how that intense, shared existence magnified our human flaws—our infidelity, our prejudices, our loneliness—against the backdrop of our pets' pure, unconditional love,&#34; said Middelveen. &#34;The unconditional bond we share with our animals serves as the sharpest mirror for our own highly conditional human relationships.&#34;</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>“疫情迫使我们孤立，使我们的宠物成为我们主要的倾诉对象。我想探讨这种强烈的共同生活如何放大我们的人性缺陷——我们的不忠、我们的偏见、我们的孤独——在我们宠物纯粹、无条件的爱的背景下，” Middelveen 说。“我们与动物之间无条件的纽带是我们高度有条件的人际关系最锋利的镜子。”</p>
</div><p>Middelveen is otherwise known for her scientific research and background in microbiology where she has tackled controversies surrounding Lyme disease and the associated skin condition, Morgellons disease. Her work has been featured in documentaries including: Skin Deep: The Battle over Morgellons, NBC Left Field, The Unexplained Files, and Under Our Skin 2: Emergence.</p>

</div><p>&#34;As a scientist, I look for patterns, and in writing this novel, I saw a profound pattern,&#34; said Middelveen, &#34;even when human society fails, the fidelity we share with our companion animals remains a constant, grounding force. That is where the story ultimately finds its heart.&#34;</p>
