Description
A haunting and spellbinding meditation on violence and exile, Amulet is a poignant exploration of memory and history. Set against the backdrop of a pivotal moment in Mexican history, this novel tells the story of a young woman's life, past and future, pouring out in a great deluge.
Trapped and alone, she finds solace in the words of a fellow poet, and in the women's bathroom of a university department, she pours out her story over the course of twelve days. A requiem for a lost generation, Amulet is a powerful and prophetic work that explores the complexities of human experience.
