About This Item
NY: Atlantic Monthly Press, 2007. 1ST. HARDBOUND. VERY GOOD in VERY GOOD jacket. 1ST. 6.25 x 1 x 9.25 inches. pp. 320. Publisher: Atlantic Monthly Press; 1ST edition (December 21, 2007) Language: English HARDBOUND: 320 pages ISBN-10: 0871139774 ISBN-13: 978-0871139771 Item Weight: 1.17 POUNDS Dimensions: 6.25 x 1 x 9.25 inches. The new novel from the award-winning author of Deafening is a poignant exploration of one eighty-year-old life, as its heroine lies at the bottom of a ravine where she has crashed en route to visit the queen. Born the same day as Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II, Canadian Georgina Danforth Witley is one of ninety-nine privileged Commonwealth subjects invited to an eightieth birthday lunch at Buckingham Palace. All she has to do is drive to the airport and board the plane for London. Except that Georgie drives off the road, her car plunging into a thickly wooded ravine. Thrown from the car and unable to move, she must rely on her no-nonsense wit, her full store of family memories, and a recitation of the bones in her body-a childhood exercise that reminds her she is still alive. As Georgina lies helpless, she reflects on her role as a daughter, mother, sister, wife, and widow-on lost loves and painful secrets-offering a whimsical and profound insight into the life of one ordinary woman who, while drawing on her instincts to survive, asks herself: what has it all amounted to?
