内容概要

Praise for Susan Palwick
“Packs a huge emotional wallop...Flying in Place is a brave and honest work, an impressive and important debut.” —San Francisco Examiner
“Unflinching clarity and great dramatic power…Susan Palwick, a young writer who has hitherto attracted some notice for her stories, poems, and essays, is with Flying in Place a novelist of moment.” —Newsday
“One of the best and most moving novels by a new author I have read in years.” —Alison Lurie on Flying in Place
“I read it in one night and a morning train trip, arriving for work dazed, distracted and drinking in the last few pages. It is a deeply moving book. Palwick’s withering understatements of pain are laced with a regret for the lost magic of childhood—even a ruined childhood.” —Geoff Ryman on Flying in Place
“Flying in Place is a bittersweet novel of a dead sister who returns to give our narrator the tools she need to break her family out of the poisonous pattern that is consuming them all. ... beautifully handled ... a wonderful debut for a writer who has proved she can write well in long forms as well as short ones -- may it be the first of many novels from Palwick, each one better than the ones before.”–Orson Scott Card
“Flying in Place is compelling, wrapping deep-empathy insights in lyric poetry to show us the monster behind the mask.”—Andrew Vachss
