Reseña del libro "Starling Days: A Novel (en Inglés)"

Set in New York and London and shortlisted for the Costa Novel Prize and a selection of the Nervous Breakdown Book Club, a stunningly observed and unflinching yet tender novel that interrogates the relationship between mental illness and love Mina is staring over the edge of the George Washington Bridge when a patrol car drives up. She tries to convince the officers she&;s not about to jump, but they don&;t believe her. Her husband, Oscar, is called to pick her up. Oscar hopes that leaving New York City for a few months will give Mina the space to heal, so they move to London, to Oscar&;s oldest friends and an apartment wallpapered with indigo-eyed birds, near a canal and flower market. Mina, a classicist, works on her book about mythological women and searches for solutions to her failing mental health by pondering their lives. Penelope, Psyche, Leda . . . They all survived, didn&;t they? Even Iphigenia, in one of the tellings. Mina finally finds a beam of light in Phoebe, a real-life woman, and Oscar and Mina&;s complicated love is tested. A gorgeously wrought novel, variously about love, mythology, mental illness, and the times we need to seek out milder psychological climates, Rowan Hisayo Buchanan&;s Starling Days is a complex and compelling work of fiction by a singularly gifted writer.
