Description
Stella Maris is an intimate portrait of grief and longing. Alicia Western, a young woman in her early twenties, seeks to understand her own existence through the transcripts of her psychiatric sessions. Alicia's story is one of philosophical inquiry, questioning our notions of God, truth, and existence. She contemplates the nature of madness, the human insistence on one common experience of the world, and introduces her hallucinations - chimeras that only she can see. Through this searching and rigorous exploration, McCarthy sheds light on the complexities of the human mind. Told entirely through Alicia's psychiatric sessions, Stella Maris is a thought-provoking coda to The Passenger series.
