Cr�ticas

It's a stunning and gripping story that I would rate as one of the best novels of 2007.. It's bizarre that some reviewers complain that the bok is emotionally incoherent or that Helen's actions make no sense. The whole book is an exploration of what leads to the murder... Sebold's depiction of Helen's point of view is complex and gripping... The reading of he unabridged audiobook by Joan Allen is very strong. Her performance helps to make Helen a character one can identify with, and she also brings out the humor of her observations....The Almost Moon is if anything more memorable than The Lovely Bones, and is far more rewarding work to reflect on. -- Metapsychology "Christian Perring" (01/01/2008)

Rese�a del editor

'When all is said and done, killing my mother came easily.' A woman steps over the line into the unthinkable in this brilliant, powerful and unforgettable new novel by the author of The Lovely Bones . For years, Helen Knightly has given her life to others: to her haunted mother, to her enigmatic father, to her husband and now-grown daughters. When she finally crosses a terrible boundary, her life comes rushing in at her in a way she never could have imagined. Unfolding over twenty-four hours, this searing novel explores the ties between mothers and daughters, wives and lovers, the meaning of devotion and the line between love and hate. It is a challenging, moving, gripping story, written with the humanity and fluidity that only Alice Sebold can bring to the page.
