- Molly falls to earth / by Mutch, Maria,author.;
"An enthralling debut novel by Governor General's Literary Awards finalist Maria Mutch that is an inventive exploration of time, absence, and desire. In late January, 2010, choreographer Molly Volkova has a seizure on a Manhattan sidewalk and is surrounded by onlookers. As Molly experiences the strangeness of the seizure over the course of seven minutes and interacts with the people gathered around her, she is haunted by her past, memories of love and infidelity, thoughts of her family and her work, and the city itself. She also reflects on the disappearance of a lover she last saw ten years earlier, his sister, and the secrets that connect all three of them. Interwoven throughout are documentary segments featuring the voices of others who search for the lost, obsessed with those who have gone missing. Flickering through time and space and from character to character, Molly Falls to Earth forms a constellation around the spot where Molly lies on the edge of Washington Square Park. With her extraordinary ability to capture the unimaginable, Maria Mutch takes us deep into a stormy world in which people disappear without going anywhere, and appear to be present while travelling vast distances"--- Subjects: Psychological fiction.; Convulsions; Reflection (Philosophy);
