Description

Carrying the Body A Novel by Dawn Raffel is a poignant and powerful exploration of family, love, and longing. When Elise returns to her childhood home, she sets in motion a chain of events that will alter the lives of those around her forever. As Elise searches for an object hidden within the house, her sister struggles to care for their ailing child, while grappling with her own demons and sense of responsibility. The boundaries between past and present begin to blur, and the fragile relationships within the family are tested to breaking point. With starkly beautiful language, Dawn Raffel crafts a compelling portrait of a family torn apart by miscommunication and misdirected love. This is a story about the inescapable emotional legacies that pass from generation to generation, and our dreams of refuge and release.
