Description
From the beloved, award-winning author of the
modern classics Lost Children Archive and Tell Me How
It Ends comes her most powerful and page-turning novel yet: the tale
of a mother and a daughter starting over, searching for a new story.
'A beautiful, maybe perfect, novel.'
--Tommy Orange, author of Wandering Stars
This story begins when a mother and her daughter
take off on a trip. It is a summer of rapidly changing winds, volcanic rumbles,
and sudden tempests. They've landed in Sicily, near the ancient ruins where the
mother's grandmother worked long ago on an archaeological dig. The narrator's
marriage has collapsed, her mother is losing her memory, and her daughter is on
the threshold of adolescence, starting to ask difficult questions and form
complex memories. How do you begin again? the narrator
wonders, pondering her family line. How do you begin again if you got
the beginning wrong?
While the mother tries to figure out how to
reconstruct their lives as a duo--cooking meals side by side, reading out loud
to each other, playing chess, bickering and making up--her daughter takes the
reins of the story, and their journey soon becomes a quest for origins, not
just to the familial past across continents, languages, and generations, but also
farther back, to a mythical and even geological past.
Beginning Middle End evolves
into a road novel of exquisite tenderness, spanning four generations of women.
In their travels through Sicily, mother and daughter cross paths with the
island's migrants, storekeepers, and elders, and also its volcanoes, its winds,
and its waters. Weaving myths, ancient philosophy, and natural history with
fleeting moments of contemporary life, the unforgettable characters in this
novel take us on a journey across time, and confront some of life's primary
questions: How do stories shape our children's memories and imagination? How do
we situate ourselves deeply in the world while accepting our transience in it?
How are a family's memories made and what happens when they disappear?
Warm, funny, and poetic, this
novel is an ode to imagination and possibility in dark times.
