"A haunting and mesmerizing story about sisterhood, family,
love and loss by literary luminary Edwidge
Danticat.
Giselle Boyer and her identical twin,
Isabelle, are as close as sisters can be, even as their
family seems to be unraveling. Then the Boyers have a tragic
encounter that will shatter everyone's world
forever.
Giselle wakes up in the hospital, injured
and unable to speak or move. Trapped in the prison of her
own body, Giselle must revisit her past in order to
understand how the people closest to her -- her friends, her
parents, and above all, Isabelle, her twin -- have shaped
and defined her. Will she allow her love for her family and
friends to lead her to recovery? Or will she remain lost in
a spiral of longing and regret?
Untwine is a
spellbinding tale, lyrical and filled with love, mystery,
humor, and heartbreak. Award-winning author Edwidge
Danticat brings her extraordinary talent to this graceful
and unflinching examination of the bonds of friendship,
romance, family, the horrors of loss, and the strength we
must discover in ourselves when all seems hopeless."
