About this deal
And then the mom wakes up the next day… but it’s actually two days IN THE PAST and the stabbing hadn’t happened yet. E cioè, mi fa pensare soprattutto a una storia di genitori a disagio con figli adolescenti che crescono e si comportano in modo anomalo (leggi violento). The further back in time she gets, the more she learns about not only the fatal act, but about her own family.
La varietà e ricchezza dei riferimenti, sia letterari che cinematografici, trovo che sia un valore aggiunto.
And, right then, it had felt, suddenly, like spring, even though it began to rain again only minutes later. I then picked one from her backlist The Evidence Against You, which I also enjoyed though admittedly quite as much as How to Disappear.
This book also has the power to influence the reader's perspective regarding the beautiful relationship between mother and children. It was a bit reminiscent of the movie Happy Death Day where the main character gets murdered and keeps reliving the day/murder over and over again until she figures out who did it.I liked it so much that I recommended it to a colleague and bought it for someone as a Christmas gift. It became an instant international bestseller, hitting the Sunday Times and Canadian Bestsellers list. A brilliantly genre-bending, mind-twisting answer to the question, how far would you go to save your child?
