Maggiori informazioni sul libro
This debut novel is a beautifully crafted literary experience set in the rural “badlands” of northern Ontario, where the landscape reflects the heartbreak and hardship of its characters. The farming Pye family endures a life resembling a Greek tragedy, with the sins of the fathers impacting the sons, while the Morrisons face a more insidious and divisive tragedy. Orphaned at a young age, Kate Morrison was deeply influenced by her older brother Matt’s passion for nature. Now a zoologist, she can identify microscopic organisms but seems unaware of her emotional struggles. Believing she has outgrown her siblings—Luke, Matt, and Bo—who once meant everything to her, Kate navigates a complex web of family love, misunderstandings, and buried resentments. The author skillfully builds tension with a blend of heartbreaking humor and masterful control, continually challenging expectations until the very end. This poignant, funny, and unforgettable tale about the dangers of hero worship quickly rose to bestseller status in Canada and received rave reviews from prestigious publications like The New York Times and The Globe and Mail.
