Description
The World Cannot Give by Tara Isabella Burton is a hypnotic and intense novel about the power and danger of wanting more from the world. In this "equal parts dangerous and delicious" story, a charismatic girl rules over a group of devoted followers at a Maine boarding school, leading them down a path of transcendent music, arcane ritual, and illicit secrets. When a shy new student joins the school's chapel choir, she finds herself drawn into a world of intensity and meaning, led by the neurotic and overachieving Virginia Strauss. But as Virginia's hold on the group begins to slip, the student must decide how far she is willing to go in her devotion to Virginia and the world she has created. A meditation on the dangers of ambition and the allure of transcendence, The World Cannot Give is a gripping and thought-provoking read.
