504 Includes bibliographical references.
520 "This lyrical debut novel is at once a passionate coming-
of-age story, a meditation on illness and death, and a
kaleidoscopic journey through one woman's life--told in
part by the malevolent voice of her disease."
520 "Lia, her husband Harry, and their beloved daughter, Iris,
are a precisely balanced family of three. With Iris
struggling to navigate the social tightrope of early
adolescence, their tender home is a much-needed refuge.
But when a sudden diagnosis threatens to derail each of
their lives, the secrets of Lia's past come rushing into
the present, and the world around them begins to
transform. Deftly guided through time, we discover the
people who shaped Lia's youth; from her deeply religious
mother to her troubled first love. In turn, each will take
their place in the shifting landscape of Lia's body; at
the center of which dances a gleeful narrator, learning
her life from the inside, growing more emboldened by the
day. Pivoting between the domestic and the epic, the comic
and the heart-breaking, this astonishing novel unearths
the darkness and levity of one woman's life to symphonic
effect."--|cPublisher's description.
