From the author of Bunny, which Margaret Atwood hails as “genius,” comes a “wild, and exhilarating” (Lauren Groff, New York Times bestselling author) novel about a theater professor who is convinced staging Shakespeare’s most maligned play will remedy all that ails her—but at what cost?

Miranda Fitch’s life is a waking nightmare. The accident that ended her burgeoning acting career left her with excruciating chronic back pain, a failed marriage, and a deepening dependence on painkillers. And now, she’s on the verge of losing her job as a college theater director. Determined to put on Shakespeare’s All’s Well That Ends Well, the play that promised and cost her everything, she faces a mutinous cast hellbent on staging Macbeth instead. Miranda sees her chance at redemption slip through her fingers.

That’s when she meets three strange benefactors who have an eerie knowledge of Miranda’s past and a tantalizing promise for her future: one where the show goes on, her rebellious students get what’s coming to them, and the invisible doubted pain that’s kept her from the spotlight is made known.

All’s Well is a “fabulous novel” (Mary Karr, author of Lit) about a woman at her breaking point and a formidable, piercingly funny indictment of our collective refusal to witness and believe female pain. Fiction Horreur Humour noir Littérature et fiction Roman féminin

Commentaires

"Amoss delivers harrowing descriptions of Miranda’s years of agonizing treatments and self-medicating. Finally, thanks to three mysterious men and their “golden remedy,” Miranda’s pain ebbs, and Amoss captures her amazement. But now the female lead in ALL’S WELL is in excruciating pain, and everyone believes Miranda's responsible. Reality is slippery in this novel, but Amoss’s performance will keep listeners tuned in."
