Book Synopsis


Trade Review
"Ms. Miano's essential premise is that a profound 'subterranean wound' was inflicted by colonialism, and that collective injury has continued through falsely enforced social hierarchies and self-immolating psychic resentments . . . The incantatory quality of the writing conjures this heightened, almost religiously attentive feeling, creating a sense of mystical potential even as the story itself dwells in suffering." * The Wall Street Journal *
