Elizabeth Crook Libri

    L'approccio di questa autrice alla narrazione è profondamente radicato in un amore infantile per la letteratura, nutrito da una madre che leggeva ad alta voce ogni sera. Queste esperienze immersive hanno acceso una passione duratura per la creazione di narrazioni che trasportano i lettori in mondi diversi e li connettono con personaggi lontani dai loro. Il suo stesso processo di scrittura è caratterizzato da un coinvolgimento lento e deliberato con le storie, riflettendo un profondo apprezzamento per il potere della narrazione. Le opere risultanti enfatizzano la risonanza emotiva e il viaggio trasformativo della lettura condivisa.

      A mesmerizing novel of four generations of Southwestern women bound to a mythical legacy With its family secrets and hallowed texts containing explosive truths, The Night Journal suggests A. S. Byatt’s Possession transplanted to the raw and beautiful landscape of the American Southwest. Meg Mabry has spent her life oppressed by her family’s legacy—a heritage beginning with the journals written by her great-grandmother in the 1890s and solidified by her grandmother Bassie, a famous historian who published them to great acclaim. Until now, Meg has stubbornly refused to read the journals. But when she concedes to accompany the elderly and vipertongued Bassie on a return trip to the fabled land of her childhood in New Mexico, Meg finally succumbs to the allure of her great-grandmother’s story—and soon everything she believed about her family is turned upside down.
