Présentation de l'éditeur :
Clara Sverdlow has been stalked by her high-school lover for almost 20 years. A recently sober alcoholic in her mid-thirties, she has found happiness in a tenuous new marriage to Mark. Yet the past lurks over them like a great shadow, always encroaching on their happiness. With a miracle baby, they are trying to forget the past and learn to live normally in the world. But Clara's stalker secretly insinuates himself upon their life, with disastrous consequences. Clara and Mark's only hope is to address the past and confront the present before it's too late.

Description du livre Softcover. Etat : new. Paperback reissue of the highly acclaimed literary thriller from the daughter of James Jones Perceptive, gritty, and compelling, this is an absorbing book that dives headfirst into issues facing recovering addicts . . . beautifully written and richly detailed.-Library Journal Speak Now is written with extraordinary skill, and is compulsively readable . . . an excellent novel.-The Southampton Press Clara Sverdlow has been stalked by Niko Kamenski, her high-school lover, for almost twenty years. A recently sober alcoholic in her mid thirties, she has found happiness in a tenuous new marriage to Mark, another recovering alcoholic. Yet the past lurks over them like a great shadow, always encroaching on their happiness. Clara Sverdlow's father, Viktor, was a Russian political prisoner in Auschwitz. He was involved in the camp underground, helping to "organize" much-needed goods to help the prisoners. But he also worked on the train ramps and helped to guide thousands of innocent victims to the gas chambers. The guilt and horror Viktor still carries with him are part of his daughter Clara's natural composition, something she doesn't understand and yet accepts as one would a congenital illness. It shapes her every action, and is at the root of her every phobia. Mark has his own demons -- a brother dead from a drug overdose, and connections to his hometown heavies, which he can't seem to break free of. Yet together they have found a tenuous grace. With a miracle baby, they are trying to forget the past and learn to live normally in the world. But Clara's stalker Niko Kamenski secretly insinuates himself upon their life, with disastrous consequences. Clara and Mark's only hope is to address the past, and confront the present situation before it's too late. N° de réf. du vendeur DADAX1888451874
