Description

In Sara Baume's evocative novel, a young artist named Frankie retreats to her grandmother's vacant rural cottage, seeking solace from the overwhelming pressures of urban life and her own internal struggles. As she navigates the quiet solitude, Frankie grapples with themes of isolation, memory, and the complex nature of empathy, finding echoes of her grandmother's past within the house's walls. Through lyrical prose and a keen eye for detail, Baume crafts a poignant portrait of a millennial artist attempting to find her footing amidst loss and uncertainty, questioning the very foundations of connection and understanding.
