Product Description
A FLORIDA BOOK AWARD BRONZE MEDAL IN GENERAL FICTIONA MILLIONS MOST ANTICIPATED FALL SELECTIONIn How We Disappear, award-winning author Tara Lynn Masih offers readers transporting and compelling stories of those taken, those missing, and those neither here nor gone-runaways, exiles, wanderers, ghosts, even the elusive Dame Agatha Christie. From the remote Siberian taiga to the harsh American frontier, from rural Long Island to postwar Belgium, Masih's characters are diverse in identity and circumstance, defying the burden of erasure by disappearing into or emerging from physical and emotional landscapes. Described as "masterful" and as "striking and resonant" (Publishers Weekly), Masih's fiction, crossing boundaries between historical and contemporary, sparks with awareness that nothing and no one is ever gone for good-and that the wilderness is never quite behind us.
Customer Reviews
“Today I awoke to a rooster crowing and the chiming of convent bells and the jumble of children’s voices reveling below my bedroom window. All happy sounds, and they make me want to apologize.” I am absolutely swimming in awe of the writing in this book! This line is from the start of “Bird Man,” which, along with “Delight” and “Agatha, A life in Unauthorized Fragments,” is a favorite of mine from this insightful and masterful collection of stories and vignettes. The book presents characters from all walks of life, across history, cultures and continents with the compassion and intimacy of a good friend. There is no overt judgement or condemnation, even when describing unjust circumstances, and, while touching on the many ways a self can be erased or made to “disappear,” the stories also offer hope. Quietly, beautifully, we are impressed with the incredible power inherent in the small, human kindnesses that make us feel seen.
