A New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice. A fierce memoir of a
mother's murder, a daughter's coming-of-age in the wake of immense
loss, and her mission to know the woman who gave her life. When
Sarah Perry was twelve, she saw a partial eclipse; she took it as a
good omen for her and her mother, Crystal. But that moment of
darkness foreshadowed a much larger one: two days later, Crystal
was murdered in their home in rural Maine. It took twelve years to
find the killer. In that time, Sarah rebuilt her life amid
abandonment, police interrogations, and the exacting toll of
trauma. She dreamed of a trial, but when the day came, it brought
no closure. It was not her mother's death she wanted to understand,
but her life. She began her own investigation, one that drew her
back to Maine, deep into the darkness of a small American town.
“Pull[ing] the reader swiftly along on parallel tracks of
mystery and elegy" in After the Eclipse, “Perry succeeds
in restoring her mother's humanity and her own" (The New York Times
Book Review).
