Let the Dark Flower Blossom (eBook, ePUB)

A Novel

Beschreibung

The Secret History meets The Savage Detectives.

Norah Labiner's debut novel, Our Sometime Sister, was a finalist for the Barnes & Noble Discover Great New Writers Award. Her second book, Miniatures, was an American Library Association Notable Book of the Year and a Minnesota Book Award winner.

This is a novel of literary intrigue, and fans of Norah's distinct literary style will recognize her lush prose and intricate plot architecture.

Let the Dark Flower Blossom is rife with references to Greek mythology-in particular, the stories of Leda and the Swan and of Charon, the ferryman who requires payment in order for a soul to cross into the afterlife.

Labiner has cult status amongst fans of literary fiction and is a hand-selling favorite amongst booksellers, including Hans Weyandt of Micawbers in St. Paul, MN.

Labiner is one of the most daring female literary writers of our time, whose work continues to gain momentum-this novel is poised to break her out into the mainstream and we're hoping to find a vocal, big name champion for her.
