We're never quite sure what made Chloe take a flight to an unnamed
country in South America. There she lives in self-imposed exile
following a suicide attempt. This series of short vignettes
provides a glimpse of Chloe's scattered thoughts as she attempts to
adjust to life in a new setting and recover from her depressive
episode. Amidst the quirky observational humour of her internal
monologue, a story of loneliness emerges, as she tries (for the
most part, unsuccessfully) to form meaningful connections with the
people she meets, and does her best to avoid, in her new
surroundings. At times biting and sarcastic, at times beautiful and
reflective, this debut novel takes an intimate look at depression,
with a sharp and witty narrator who rides the line between
self-aware and self-deprecating. A quirky, sweet story of
overcoming hopelessness and finding human connection.
