Kim Edwards - The Lake of Dreams
Kim Edwards debut, The Memory Keeper’s Daughter, became a word-of-mouth bestseller and her ability to spin a good yarn is evident in The Lake of Dreams. After working overseas for years, Lucy returns to her hometown to confront the loss of her father ten years earlier.
But the discovery of a long-lost relative whose existence was obscured by the family nearly one hundred years earlier, leads her to delve into and confront the fragmented parts of her own life. Poetically written with a multiplicity of inter-linking plotlines, The Lake of Dreams, as one reviewer writes, is a kind of mystery novel of the self, about a woman caught in the undertow of history. Thoroughly enjoyable.
