A gifted and reclusive ghostwriter, Alice Lovett makes a living helping other people tell their stories. But she is haunted by the one story she cannot tell: the story of, as she puts it, "the things that happened while I was asleep." A mind-blowing novel about the fifteen-year fallout from a poisonous high school rumor, exploring how stories from the past can come to define who we are.
Innovative, convincing, daring, suspenseful, and and altogether astonishing.
