Description

A BRILLIANT FIRST NOVEL OF PROFOUND DEPTH, STARTLING ORIGINALITY AND BREATHTAKING TALENT.

A CHILD IS IMPRISONED IN A HOUSE BY HER RECLUSIVE RELIGIOUS PARENTS.

HESTER HAS NEVER SEEN THE OUTSIDE WORLD; HER COMPANIONS ARE CAT, SPOON, DOOR, HANDLE, BROOM, AND THEY ALL SPEAK TO HER.

HER IMAGINATION IS INFORMED BY ONE BOOK, AN ILLUSTRATED CHILD`S BIBLE, AND ITS IMAGERY FORMS THE SOLE BASIS FOR HER CAPACITY TO MAKE POETIC CONNECTION.

ONE DAY HESTER TAKES A BRAVE ALICE IN WONDERLAND TRIP INTO THE FORBIDDEN OUTSIDE (AT THE BEHEST OF HANDLE - `TURN ME TURN ME`), AND THIS OVERWHELMING ENCOUNTER WITH LIGHT AND SKY AND SUNSHINE IS A MARVEL TO HER.

FROM THIS MOMENT ON, HESTER LEARNS THE CONCEPT OF THE SECRET, AND NOT TELLING, AND THE WORLD BECOMES SOMETHING THAT FILLS HER WITH FEELING AS IF SHE IS A VESSEL, EMPTY AND BOTTOMLESS FOR NEED OF IT. सचचा आवाज. बालपणाचया धासतीभरलया आठवणी जागया करता करता उदातततला आवाहन करणारा आणि वासतवापढ मान तकवणारया निरागसतची वदना टिपणारा सचचा आवाज! सोफी लगनान रखाटलल जग, वयकतिरखा आणि वयकतिरखला साजशी भाषा, यात वाचक गगन जातो. ह सार एका दारण वासतवाचया कथानकाला हाताळताना, एवढया तीवर आणि परभावशाली शलीत ती कर शकली आह, हीच तिचया ठायीचया चातरय, कलाकौशलय आणि परिपकवता या गणाना मिळालली पावती महटली पाहिज. भडक पतरकारितचया ह सरवसवी विरदध आह. ह माणसकी, मनोविकार आणि सतय यानी ओतपरोत भरलल आह.
