A story of the twentieth century told through the various lives of one woman: an intoxicating masterpiece of a novel that kneads Time and History like dough
A story of the twentieth century told through the various lives of one woman. By tracing the five possible lives and the five deaths of one woman whose life spans, or fails to span, the twentieth century, the magical, magisterial author of VISITATION exposes the machinations of what we call 'fate' - actually inexplicable and undetermined, an interplay of culture and history, of family and personal entanglements.
