Gone

Edición de la obra Gone

"Elisabeth Sheffield's novel Gone juxtaposes the manic, run-on confession of Stella Vanderzee, California freeway flyer, with a series of cryptic letters from her Aunt Juju. This interwoven, doubling narrative recounts how Stella returns home to seek an inheritance she considers her own. However, her search is confounded by a secret history, a strange tale of closeted sexuality and suppressed desire, revealing a family saga overwritten by half-truth and innuendo. Gone is an attempt to give form to what has been lost - the pastoral past, the feminine body - even as that attempt is inevitably the undoing of what it retrieves."--BOOK JACKET.
