WITHOUT HER
A haunting novel of friendship and jealousy set in France.
When her old friend Hannah doesn't show up at her family house in the south of France, everyone assumes that Claudia, who has known Hannah since boarding school, will know where she is and what has happened. But as Claudia travels from the US to France to help Hannah's husband and children conduct their search, she is forced to deal with her old jealousy of Hannah, as well as her own relationship in the present with Alexandre, her French lover of many years. As events unfold, Claudia begins to wonder if Hannah and Alexandre have had an affair and if that has had something to do with Hannah's mysterious disappearance. In this exquisitely written, Ferrante-esque novel, Brackenbury asks the bewildering question: If Hannah doesn't return, what will the lives of her friends and family be, without her?
Rosalind Brackenbury is the author of Becoming George Sand, The Third Swimmer, which was the INDIES Silver Winner in General Fiction, and the poetry collection, Invisible Horses. Born in London, Rosalind lived in Scotland and France before moving to the US. A former writer-in-residence at the College of William and Mary, she has served as poet laureate of Key West, Florida.
