Gabrielle Sher
Sobre este título
Yetta is a bright, quick teenage girl with a wild, searching spirit. Stifled by her mother's anxiety, her father’s rules, and the path that’s been laid out for her, she craves the kind of freedom she doesn’t know the edges of. But her family has reason to be cautious and restrictive. Fear has wrapped itself around their shtetl. Jews are mysteriously disappearing, and there are whispers of an impending Gentile attack. When violence comes to their door, Yetta is killed.
Her father, in his grief, fumbles through his nascent knowledge of ancient texts and old magic to bring her back. By some miracle, Yetta is returned—but although she looks the same, Yetta is not the girl she once was. She knows there is a secret her family is keeping from her. The answer resides, in part, in the monstruous being stalking the villagers and their enemies, lurking in the woods beyond the shtetl, something that may be of her father’s making, and a being which has plans of its own.
Resumo da Crítica
“Odessa is a triumph. Gabrielle Sher has given us, at once, a classic monster tale, a heartbreakingly relevant historical drama, a pulse-poundingly contemporary descent into horror, a timeless parable about the porous boundaries between atrocity and self-defense, and above all, a powerful reclamation of agency. Count me in for whatever Sher writes next.”—Nat Cassidy, USA Today bestselling author of Mary and When the Wolf Comes Home
“Odessa is wonderfully strange, marvelously frightening, and authentically moving. Gabrielle Sher’s powerful tale of terrible wrong and terrifying consequences manages both to surprise and hit all the right chilling notes.”—Laird Hunt, author of the National Book Award nominated Zorrie
“A bold investigation of the costs of violence and complex aftermath of possessive grief. Gabrielle Sher stitches together myth and legend across traditions and time in startling, memorable, and moving ways.” —Elizabeth Graver, author of Kantika
