Sobre este artículo
New York, New York, U.S.A.: Picador, 2007. First Thus Edition . Soft cover. New/No Jacket. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Second book, first novel by the author of THE ICE MUSEUM. "Youre depressed," a doctor tells Rosa, the thirty-five-year-old heroine of this début novel. It is one of many simplistic diagnoses offered by Rosas acquaintances, who are shocked when, months after her mothers death, she quits her job as a newspaper writer, is dumped by her boyfriend, and rapidly sinks into debt. To Rosa, her condition feels like anything but depression; she has a sense of excitement, of the tumult of her thoughts, of being "driven towards an end that I do not know." Kavenna pursues the causes and trajectory of a nervous breakdown with a relentlessness that comes close to overwhelming the minimal plot; still, her understanding of the complexity of depression and her evocation of her heroines bewilderment are precise, and Rosa, for all her misery, has an appealing and often funny voice. New trade paperback.
