Krátky popis
NAMED AS ONE OF GRANTA MAGAZINE'S BEST OF YOUNG BRITISH NOVELISTS
2023An unnerving, compelling and utterly contemporary debut novel
about one woman's metamorphosis into an online phenomenon, from a
Sunday Times Short Story Award-shortlisted writerShe is noticed by
Elliot as he trains in in the gym. He sees her dedication to
building her body and taking up space, and he is drawn to her
strength. She is observed by her mother, as she grows from a
taciturn, tremulous child into a determined and distant woman, who
severs all familial ties.She is watched by her former colleague
Susie, who offers her sanctuary and support as she leaves her
partner and rebuilds her life, transforming her body and
reinventing herself online. Each of these three witnesses desires
closeness. Each is left with only the husk of the person they
thought they knew, before she became someone else: a woman on a
singular and solitary path with the power to inspire and to
influence her followers, for good and ill.Chrysalis a story about
solitude and selfhood, and about the blurred line between self-care
and narcissism. It is about controlling the body and the mind,
about the place of the individual within society and what it means
when someone chooses to leave society behind. It is a strikingly
contemporary story about the search for answers and those we trust
to give them to us.
