She spends her days climbing the mountains outside her door and exploring the woods and when she must venture into the small conservative town for supplies she's met with curious stares and wariness. Laura begins seeing a bartender who alerts her to the villagers uncertainties and suggests she get a dog. Then late one night there is a knock on the door and on the other side stands someone from her past who has finally found her. In beguiling lyrical prose the mystery surrounding why Laura has absconded to this remote corner of the Alps comes into focus while the villagers grow leery of the woman in the cabin and of her increasingly odd behavior and a few decide to take matters into their own hands; to free themselves from the malevolent forces of the strega who lives amongst them. With its dexterity and appreciation for the natural world its slow - burn tension and thematic considerations of illness infertility and femininity At the Edge of the Woods calls to mind the work of Richard Powers Claire - Louise Bennett and Shirley Jackson while revealing Kathryn Bromwich as a spectacular and singular talent.\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: At The Edge Of The Woods\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor(s): Bromwich Kathryn\u003cbr\u003e\nPublisher: Two Dollar Radio\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9781953387318\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 220 Pages\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 6\/6\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: Modern \u0026amp; Contemporary Fiction","brand":"Bromwich Kathryn","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49626864615729,"sku":"IN-G-9781953387318","price":30.42,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9781953387318-at-the-edge-of-the-woods","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
