Synopsis "Tear"

A GLOBE AND MAIL BEST BOOK OF 2022 49TH STREET EDITOR'S PICK FOR SEPTEMBER 2022A reclamation offemale rage and a horrifyingly deformed Bildungsroman. Frances is quiet and reclusive, so much so that her upstairs roommates sometimes forget she exists. Isolated inthe basement, and on the brink of graduating from university, Frances herselfstarts to question the realities of her own existence. She can't remember therebeing a lock on the door at the top of the basement stairs--and yet, when sheturns the knob, the door won't open. She can't tell the difference between herchildhood memories, which bloom like flowers in the dark basement, and herdreams. Worse still, she can't ignore the very real tapping sound nowcoming--insistently, violently--threatening to break through her bedroom wall. With the thematicconsiderations of Mary Shelley and Shirley Jackson's work, and in the style ofHerta Müller and Daisy Johnson, Tearis both a horrifyingly deformed Bildungsroman and a bristling reclamation offemale rage. Blurring the real and the imagined, this lyric debut novelunflinchingly engages with contemporary feminist issues and explores thedetrimental effects of false narratives, gaslighting, and manipulation on youngwomen.
