Description

Description

Anya's unease has been building for years, stemming from a childhood escape and a deep-seated fear of security. When social convention forces her to return, she begins to change, and the past she thought she'd contained resurfaces in unexpected ways.

As Anya navigates the complexities of relationships, assimilation, and identity, the boundaries between men and women, nations, families, order, and chaos start to blur. A lean, sly, and unsettling novel, Asylum Road is a powerful exploration of the many borders that govern our lives.

This thought-provoking book builds towards a startling climax, forcing Anya - and the reader - to confront what happens when these borders break down.
