A magnificent novel for a global culture seemingly intent on stripping the young of the possibilities of love, purpose and belonging. Pearl stands at the end of her strand of descent and DNA with the resources of the lives of those who have come before to act as warning and counsel. Can she uncover their significance to her own life and change its course?

Autorenporträt
Marilyn Bowering is a Canadian novelist and poet who grew up in Victoria, B.C. and lives there now. Her first novel, To All Appearances A Lady, was a New York Times Notable Book; her second, Visible Worlds, was shortlisted for the Orange Prize, nominated for the Dublin IMPAC Prize, awarded the Ethel Wilson Fiction Prize-and was praised by The Independent as "a tour de force" and by The New York Times Book Review as "a vast, sprawling feast of a book." Her most recent work, More Richly in Earth, was longlisted for the Saltire Prize. She is also the librettist for Marilyn Forever (Gavin Bryars) and the author of essays including "When We Walked on the Backs of Fish" in Green Matters.
