Review:
In an evocative and imaginative novel, Amelia Earhart tells us what happened after she and her navigator, Fred Noonan, disappeared off the coast of New Guinea one windy day in 1937.
From the Publisher:
"Strange, slight, but wonderful: a modest portrait that manages to create some moments of exceptional intensity and power of feeling."
-- Kirkus Reviews
-- Kirkus Reviews
"Not to be missed. It is an immediately addicting book, as telegraphic as those of Margaret Duras, and as charged with longing."
-- Liesl Schillinger, Bazaar
"Past and present, fact and fiction, first-person and third blend into a life of the celebrated aviatrix -- both before and after her famed disappearance in 1937, at age 39 -- that unfolds with the surreal precision of a dream and that marks first novelist Mendelsohn as a writer to watch."
-- Publishers Weekly
