“Kasischke’s writing does what good poetry does—it shows us an alternate world and lulls us into living in it . . . The language catapults us into another plane of existence, one of facade and reflection.” —New York Times Book ReviewLes informations fournies dans la section « Synopsis » peuvent faire référence à une autre édition de ce titre.
Laura Kasischke teaches in the MFA program at the University of Michigan. A winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award for poetry, she has published eight collections of poetry and ten novels, three of which have been made into films, including The Life Before Her Eyes.
Last year Godwin Honors Hall was draped in black. The university was mourningthe loss of one of its own: Nicole Werner, a blond, beautiful, straight-A sororitysister tragically killed in a car accident that left her boyfriend, who was driving,remarkably—some say suspiciously—unscathed.
Although a year has passed, as winter begins and the nights darken, obsession withNicole and her death reignites: She was so pretty. So sweet-tempered. So innocent. Tooyoung to die.
Unless she didn’t.
Because rumor has it that she’s back.

Paperback. Etat : Good. The accident was tragic, yes. Bloody and horrific and claiming the life of a beautiful young sorority girl. Nicole was a straight-A student from a small town. Sweet-tempered, all-American, a former Girl Scout, and a virgin. But it was an accident. And that was last year. It's fall again, a new semester, a fresh start. Craig, who has not been charged with murder, is focusing on his classes, and also on avoiding Nicole's sorority sisters, who seem to blame him for her death even though the police did not. Perry, Craig's roommate, is working through his own grief (he grew up with Nicole, after all, and had known her since kindergarten) by auditing Professor Polson's sociology class: Death, Dying, and the Undead. Mira has been so busy with her babies--two of them, twins, the most perfect boys you could imagine but still a nearly impossible amount of work even with Clark's help--that she can barely keep herself together to teach (Death, Dying and the Undead), let alone write the book she'll need to publish for tenure. And Shelly, who was the first person at the scene of the accident, has given up calling the newspapers to tell them that, despite the lake of blood in which they keep reporting the victim was found, the girl Shelly saw that night was not bloody, and not dead.
