Beschreibung
''A wise, intimate tale that is by turns joyful, sorrowful and explicit'' Observer
''The author delves deep into Lottie''s psyche, shying away from nothing, to create a rounded and gripping portrait of a woman on the edge of change'' Daily Mail
Lottie Kristin is independent from the start. Born in the middle of the century to a middle-class family in the very middle of America, Lottie is set apart by her smarts and sensuality. A girl who''d rather carry out dissections on a snowy back porch than join her family for Christmas dinner is a strange and exotic artifact in the town of Sleeping Bay.
But by her early twenties, Lottie finds herself trapped in a marriage gone stale, with a daughter she adores but whose existence jeopardizes her place in the lab and her dream of becoming a scientist. How can a young woman make her way in a world determined to contain her brilliance, her will, and her longing to live?
Bravely and wisely written,
Artifact is an intimate and propulsive portrait of a whole woman, a celebration of her refusal to be defined by others'' imaginations, and a meditation on the glorious chaos of biological life.
