Synopsis
`One of the most important books you'll pick up this decade' Harper's Bazaar `You think you're invincible. You think you won't ever miss. We need to put the fear on you. You need to surrender yourself to death before you ever begin, and accept your life as a state of grace, and then and only then will you be good enough.' At 14, Turtle Alveston knows the use of every gun on her wall;That chaos is coming and only the strong will survive it;That her daddy loves her more than anything else in this world.And he'll do whatever it takes to keep her with him. She doesn't know why she feels so different from the other girls at school;Why the line between love and pain can be so hard to see;Why making a friend may be the bravest and most terrifying thing she has ever doneAnd what her daddy will do when he finds out ... Sometimes strength is not the same as courage.Sometimes leaving is not the only way to escape.Sometimes surviving isn't enough.

Softcover. Etat : As New. The year's must-read novel, hailed by critics as one of the most important books of the decade, follows 14-year-old Turtle Alveston, who is well-versed in the use of guns and understands that chaos is imminent. Her father's love for her is unwavering, and he will do anything to keep her close. Yet, Turtle grapples with feelings of isolation from her peers, struggling to discern the fine line between love and pain. The challenges of friendship become daunting, and she must confront the lengths her father might go to if he discovers her budding connections. This narrative explores the complexities of strength, courage, and survival, illustrating that sometimes leaving isn't the only escape. Critics praise the book as a masterpiece, with one calling it a "brutal yet beautiful" tale featuring an exceptional heroine. The storytelling is described as unflinching and incandescent, drawing comparisons to the resilience found in works like Emma Donoghue's "Room" and Cormac McCarthy's novels. Readers are captivated by Turtle's character and the energy that permeates every page, making it an unforgettable experience. N° de réf. du vendeur 3cc702eb-4163-4b63-b43d-c543263669ab
