Informationen zum Autor Jordan Stump is a professor of French at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln. Klappentext This mesmerizing novel is about a sixteen-year-old girl who lives in a rectory and works in a dance hall. Gradually she embarks upon a "personal project": she digs pits in the rectory garden and "looks for the dead". Her story, which has the brevity and magical intensity of a fairy tale, is marked equally by tragedy and dark humor. Zusammenfassung Offers three tales that features a commanding female protagonist trapped in her place of origin, neither able nor wanting to escape from the home that gave her life but which now threatens to destroy her. This title presents personal images of utopia, the importance of heritage, and the necessity of burying the dead to approach the future.
