Description
In this profound novel, a geologist finds his meticulously ordered life unraveling as his daughter succumbs to a mysterious illness that erodes her memory and sight. Faced with the unbearable prospect of loss, he embarks on a secret, quixotic journey to New Mexico, driven by a cryptic note and a desperate need to save someone, anyone. Percival Everett masterfully explores the devastating impact of grief and the potent, perhaps even redemptive, power of storytelling in the face of profound helplessness.
