The history of art is littered with Great Men and the Muses they
use as stepping stones to brilliance. In this shockingly lyrical,
endlessly rich and luxurious nightmare of a novel, the Muse turns.
Yet, it is not so much a tale of vengeance or comeuppance as it is
a heroine's journey, as Anonyma survives doomscapes almost beyond
imagination and the transgressions of mere men, mere artists,
survives the horrors imposed upon the feminine to rediscover her
own magic and power. Anonyma, novel and narrator, holds up a dark
mirror to our paradigm of art as a kind of device for reducing
women to Platonic ideals while staging theophanies for men. But she
also holds the mirror to herself, her sisters, even, daring to
hope, a daughter. ANONYMA is a novel full of blood and love and
despair and courage.
