It chronicles their relationship, from his early development of ALS to his success in physics In this compelling memoir, Jane Hawking, Stephen Hawking's first wife, relates the inside story of their extraordinary marriage. As Stephen's academic renown soared, his body was collapsing under the assaults of motor-neuron disease, and Jane's candid account of trying to balance his twenty-four-hour care with the needs of their growing family will be inspirational to anyone dealing with family illness. The inner strength of the author and the self-evident character and achievements of her husband make for an incredible tale that is always presented with unflinching honesty; the author's candour is no less evident when the marriage finally ends in a high-profile meltdown, with Stephen leaving Jane for one of his nurses, while Jane goes on to marry an old family friend. In this exceptionally open, moving and often funny memoir, Jane Hawking confronts not only the acutely complicated and painful dilemmas of her first marriage, but also the fault lines exposed in a relationship by the pervasive effects of fame and wealth. The result is a book about optimism, love and change that will resonate with readers everywhere. Review “A great read.” --Daily Mail “Stephen Hawking may think in 11 dimensions, but his first wife has learnt to love in several.” --The Sunday Times “What becomes of time when a marriage unravels? And what becomes of the woman who has located her whole self within its sphere? For Jane Hawking, the physics of love and loss are set in a private universe.” --The Guardian “Jane describes the final, painful years of her marriage in candid detail.” --The Independent “Jane Hawking’s harrowing and compelling account… rings very true.” --Irish Times “This is not a vindictive book, although the agony she went through is palpable; if Stephen’s struggle to keep his mind clear is heroic, so is her determination to balance his escalating needs and those of their three children.” --Independent on Sunday “Jane writes about her former husband with tenderness, respect and protectiveness.” --Sunday Express “Jane Hawking has written a book about what it was like to be pivotal to her husband’s celebrated existence… but it is much more a shout from the outer darkness.” --The Daily Telegraph 上世纪60年代初的霍金还是剑桥大学的本科生，他与艺术系的女生简·外尔德（Jane Wilde） 相识并相爱。当21岁的霍金被诊断为卢卡雷氏症患者，并且也许只能活两年的时候，纯洁善良的简对他不离不弃，毅然于1965年与他结婚。 他们的婚姻从1965年到1995年，持续了整整三十年。这期间，霍金从一个患上卢卡雷氏症而四肢逐渐失去知觉的大学生，变成了坐在轮椅上靠非凡的思想影响全世界的著名科学家。爱情的神奇力量，由此可见一斑。 2006年夏天，霍金与简冰释前嫌，重享儿孙满堂的天伦之乐。他的一生如此传奇，没有人能够复制。 简·霍金，中世纪诗歌博士，史蒂芬·威廉·霍金的第1任妻子，育有二子一女。 Dr Jane Hawking,who was Stephen Hawking's wife for over twenty years, is a writer and lecturer. Her book At Home in France was published in 1994, followed by Music to Move the Stars in 1999. She lives and works in Cambridge. The story of my life with Stephen Hawking began in the summer of 1962, though possibly it began ten or so years earlier than that without my being aware of it. When I entered St Albans High School for Girls as a seven-year-old first-former in the early Fifties, there was for a short spell a boy with floppy golden-brown hair who used to sit by the wall in the next-door classroom. The school took boys, including my brother Christopher in the junior department, but I only saw the boy with the floppy hair on the occasions when, in the absence of our own teacher, we first-formers were squeezed into the same classroom as the older children. We never spoke to each other, but I am sure this early memory is to be trusted, because Stephen was a pupil at the school for a term at that time before going to a preparatory school a few miles away. Stephen’s sisters were more recognizable, because they were at the school for longer. Only eighteen months younger than Stephen, Mars the elder of the two girls, was a distinctively eccentric figure — plump, always dishevelled, absent-minded, given to solitary pursuits. Her great asset, a translucent complexion, was masked by thick, unflattering spectacles. Philippa, five years younger than Stephen, was bright-eyed, nervous and excitable, with short fair plaits and a round, pink face. The school demanded rigid conformity both academically and in discipline, and the pupils, like schoolchildren everywhere, could be cruelly intolerant of individuality. It was fine to have a Rolls Royce and a house in the country, but if, likeme, your means of transport was a pre-war Standard 10 — or even worse, like the Hawkings, an ancientLondon taxi — you were a figure of fun or the object of pitying contempt. The Hawking children used to lie on the floor of their taxi to avoid being seen by their peers. Unfortunately there was not room on the floor of the Standard 10 for such evasive action. Both the Hawking girls left before reaching the upper school. Their mother had long been a familiar figure. A small, wiry person dressed in a fur coat, she used to stand on the corner by the zebra crossing near my school, waiting for her youngest son, Edward, to arrive by bus from his preparatory school in the country. My brother also went to that school after his kindergarten year at St Albans High School: it was called Aylesford House and there the boys wore pink — pink blazers and pink caps. In all other respects it was a paradise for small boys, especially for those who were not of an academic inclination. Games, cubs, camping and gang shows, for which my father often played the piano, appeared to be the major activities. Charming and very good- looking, Edward, at the age of eight, was having some difficulty relating to his adoptive family when I first knew the Hawkings — possibly because of their habit of bringing their reading matter to the dinner table and ignoring any non-bookworms present. A school friend of mine, Diana King, had experienced this particular Hawking habit — which may have been why, on hearing some time later of my engagement to Stephen, she exclaimed, “Oh, Jane! You are marrying into a mad, mad family!” It was Diana who first pointed Stephen out to me in that summer of 1962 when, after the exams, she, my best friend Gillian and I were enjoying the blissful period of semi-idleness before the end of term. Thanks to my father’s position as a senior civil servant, I had already made a couple of sorties into the adult world beyond school, homework and exams — to a dinner in the House of Commons and on a hot sunny day to a garden party at Buckingham Palace. Diana and Gillian were leaving school that summer, while I was to stay on as Head Girl for the autumn term, when I would be applying for university entrance. 1234567
