Descripción del artículo del vendedor

Hardcover. A visceral and stirring novel exploring free will, memory, faith, and constructions of reality and the self, following a woman faced with the question of whether her marriage is abusive, and the life-altering decision of ending itWhen we meet Vera, her body and mind are on a precipice. Shes just left her marital home to live with her father after her husbands violent outbursts reach a breaking point. Shes experiencing sudden losses of consciousness, spells of insomnia and difficulty eating. Over the course of the year that follows, she reignites a high school romance, looks to her divorced parents for guidance, attempts couples therapy, struggles to mother two young daughters, develops a brief cocaine dependency, and tries to rekindle her artistic practiceall while questioning, in Halaszs immediate, intimate prose, the infinite number of choices that led her to this difficult moment. Towards the end of the novel, we follow Vera into a surreal funhouse mirror of a courtroom scene, equally comical and horrifying, where she must confront the many conflicting narratives of her marriage and separation and decide which one rings true. With the emotional precision and formal elegance reminiscent of Natalia Ginzburg and Elena Ferrante, Halasz offers a meditation on agency, subjectivity, motherhood, and the artistic vocation with an ultimately optimistic conclusion: life consists of forward movement, in which the biggest challengeand privilegeis choice."Halaszs terse and unsparing syntax mirrors her protagonists disorientation, splicing together different conversations and memories in the span of a paragraph, sometimes even a single sentence . . . Its a testament to both Halaszs and Herberts narrative talents that even when Veras mind tips over a precipice, the reader is still able to parse her spiraling consciousness . . . Remarkable."
