Produktbeschreibung

Step into the luminous, aching territory of transformation in this exquisite novel about buried longings cracking through the careful surfaces of a life lived too quietly.

Evelyn Winters is suspended in the aftermath of her mother's death, her marriage to Charlene Foster dissolving into brittle choreography of unspoken grievances. While Charlene orchestrates their domestic life with meticulous control, Evelyn finds herself magnetized by what refuses containment: the wild terrain in her mother's garden, the hunger that gnaws beneath politeness, the raw animal of her own unexamined desires.

Salvation arrives in seventeen blue leather journals, hidden for decades, containing her mother's secret life-a woman fierce, yearning, alive with suppressed artistry and clandestine love. These discovered pages become both mirror and catalyst. Inspired by this legacy of buried desire, Evelyn begins again to write, each poem a necessary excavation of her authentic voice.

As her artistic awakening intensifies, her marriage fractures, creating space to examine what she's been afraid to want. A tentative connection with Iris offers the radical possibility of being seen whole. The novel crescendos with Evelyn's manuscript acceptance and a public reading where she claims not just artistic success but the right to exist in her own skin.

Glass Hours is the archaeology of the self-the courage to let what's been composting in darkness finally break ground.
