Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. A potent novel about chronic illness and the circular nature of recovery-shortlisted for the major Australian literary award The Stella Prize. In the wake of a major operation, a twenty-eight-year-old woman with chronic illness has twelve weeks to heal, or rather, to acclimate to her new bod…y and prepare herself to leave the routines, comforts, and interiority of her convalescence. In the hydrotherapy pool, she meets Frida, a young woman who looks strikingly similar to her and is also in a state of recovery. But Frida sees her chronic illness as something to overcome and her body as something to control. She adores the pool and pushes the narrator and herself toward an active life, relentlessly pursuing the prevailing narrative of illness followed by recovery. But the narrator also happens upon Sylvia, another young, convalescing woman, resting on a bench in a nearby park, which the narrator frequents on the days she is too ill to swim. Sylvia understands her body and the narrator's in a different way, gently encouraging her to rest, to perceive illness as something happening to her, but which does not define her. Throughout the narrator's recovery, these women shadow, overlap, mirror, and complicate one another, and what begins as two seemingly undemanding friendships is challenged by what each woman asks of the narrator, of themselves, and of their bodies. A potent novel about chronic illness and the circular nature of recovery--shortlisted for the major Australian literary award The Stella Prize.

Vera writes for the internet: she constructs identities and scenarios for brands to cater to the ideal consumer. Yet she also consumes the offerings of the online world herself: the addictive pursuit of a cure, the narratives she craves in which mother and daughter find a way out of the shared experience of chronic illness. She becomes preoccupied with a blog written by a woman named Claudia, a mother whose daughter also has a chronic illness.While on holiday in Italy, Thea writes in her journal. She is also constructing a character: an image of herself as she grapples with having the same illness as her mother, Vera. But gradually another person emerges in her journal, through her imaginings of her mother in the same house, the same city, at the same age. They have come to Italy to see where Veras family originates, but also to chase a promised cure in the form of a man said to be able to heal Theas illness.As they both grapple with their own narratives about their bodies and their wellness, all may not be as it seems.Perhaps a story does not necessarily need to be true for us to believe in it?PRAISE FOR CURE: As you reach the end and Brabon draws the threads together, a wise, tender portrait of the relationship between a mother and daughter emerges. Cure is a beguiling and resonant novel, in which the process of belief and the difficulty of integrating the experience of illness into self-identity is revealed to be extraordinarily fraught.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. SHORTLISTED FOR THE STELLA PRIZE SHORTLISTED FOR THE UNIVERSITY OF QUEENSLAND FICTION BOOK AWARD an illuminating reflection on what it means to live with pain. Publishers WeeklyBody Friend is a deeply intimate tribute to the fragile and porous self, written in prose of rare clarity and tende…rness. I felt everything reading this book.Claire Thomas, author of The Performance and Fugitive BlueBody Friend is a novel that clings to the mind long after it finishes. ArtsHUB a tender and raw novel about friendship, chronic pain and the healing power of water. Harper's Bazaar Katherine Brabon distinguished herself with her first novels, The Memory Artist and The Shut Ins, but she has surpassed these and reached an early career pinnacle with her enigmatically titled novel, Body Friend.Books + PublishingLate in the summer five years ago, when I was recovering from a surgical procedure, I met two women within a few weeks of each other and I saw both of them regularly, always separately, for some months afterwards. Summer did not give way easily that year, and even so we must force our bodies down to sleep in the heat, and even if experience does not give itself up easily to representation, I will lay it down anyway; frame the raw and exigent weeks, the untrustworthy months after the hospital, render it and them, Frida and Sylvia, as closely as possible to realityor whatever is the feelingof a life and mind lived inside a body. A woman leaves the hospital after an operation and starts swimming in a pool in Melbournes inner suburbs. There she meets Frida, who is uncannily like her in her experience of illness. Soon after, she meets another woman in a local park, Sylvia, who sees her pain and encourages her to rest. The two new friends seem to be polar opposites: Frida adores the pool and the natural world, Sylvia clings to the protection of interior worlds. What begins as two seemingly simple friendships is challenged by what each woman asks of her, of themselves, and their bodies. From the acclaimed author of The Memory Artist and The Shut Ins comes a new novel about the relationship between body and self, and how we must dive beneath the surface to really know ourselves. PRAISE FOR BODY FRIEND: Body Friend shows that pain can be a friend and a friend can be a mirror, but what they reflect is more than just a mirror image, and contains many possibilities. Sydney Morning HeraldBody Friend is tender and expressive. Brabons writing is exquisitely constructed. Her prose holds quiet emotional weight putting the reader in mind, particularly, of Elena Ferrantes style which is extraordinarily effective in capturing the lived realities of the body. Body Friend is a novel that clings to the mind long after it finishes. ArtsHUB Its language is startling for its poetic tendencies it is rhythmic and observant, and liltingly musical as well as its clarity and sharp concision. Brabons prose is one of the deepest pleasures of the novel. The Saturday Paper The plot unfolds artfully and with precision to surprise and exceed readers expectations.Books + Publishing Katherine Brabons Body Friend is a tender ode to the recursive mysteries of the body and the need to find ourselves in other people.

A description of our secondhand books is not always available. Please contact us if you have a question about this title. Author: Katherine B…rabon Format: Paperback Number of Pages: 304 Winner of the Australian/Vogel's Literary Award 2016. How can hope exist when the past is so easily forgotten? Pasha Ivanov is a child of the Freeze, born in Moscow during Brezhnev's repressive rule over the Soviet Union. As a small child, Pasha sat at the kitchen table night after night as his parents and their friends gathered to preserve the memory of terrifying Stalinist violence, and to expose the continued harassment of dissidents. When Gorbachev promises glasnost, openness, Pasha, an eager twenty-four year old, longs to create art and to carry on the work of those who came before him. He writes; falls in love. Yet that hope, too, fragments and by 1999 Pasha lives a solitary life in St Petersburg. Until a phone call in the middle of the night acts as a summons both to Moscow and to memory. Through recollections and observation, Pasha walks through the landscapes of history, from concrete tower suburbs, to a summerhouse during Russia's white night summers, to haunting former prison camps in the Arctic north. Pasha's search to find meaning leads him to assemble a fractured story of Russia's traumatic past. 'This is a poignant and beautifully written novel.' Jenny Barry 'The characters are deep and rich . keeps you reading just through the sheer quality of it all.' Rohan Wilson. Secondhand, Paperback.
