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.
