Note |
"A propulsive, gripping new novel about fate, art, exploitation, and intimacy by the award-winning author of Where Reasons End" -- Provided by publisher. |
Summary |
Fabienne is dead. Her childhood best friend, Ag̈ns, receives the news in America, far from the French countryside where the two girls were raised--the place that Fabienne helped Ag̈ns escape ten years ago. Now, Ag̈ns is free to tell her story. As children in a war-ravaged, backwater town, they'd built a private world, invisible to everyone but themselves--until Fabienne hatched the plan that would change everything, launching Ag̈ns on an epic trajectory through fame, fortune, and terrible loss. |
