A New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice A WALL STREET JOURNAL AND VOGUE MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK OF 2020
A triumph of tone and intelligence. Percy Q's perspective is skewed and searching at once, and through her eyes, we see afresh not only New York's post-9/11 landscape but also the world of art, and love, and the process of becoming. --Rivka Galchen, author of Atmospheric Disturbances
Percy is pregnant. She hasn't told a soul. Probably she should tell her husband--certainly she means to--but one night she wakes up to find she no longer recognizes him. Now, instead of sleeping, Percy is spending her nights taking walks through her neighborhood, all the while fretting over her marriage, her impending motherhood, and the sinister ways the city is changing.
Amid this alienation--from her husband, home, and rapidly changing body--a package arrives. In it: an exhibition catalog for a photography show. The photographs consist of a series of digitally manipulated images of a woman lying on a bed in a red room. It takes a moment for even Percy to notice that the woman is herself . . . but no one else sees the resemblance. Percy must now come to grips with the fundamental question of identity in the digital age: To what extent do we own our own image, and to what extent is that image shaped by the eyes of others? Capturing perfectly the haunted atmosphere of Manhattan immediately after 9/11--and the simmering insanity of America ever since--Jessi Jezewska Stevens's The Exhibition of Persephone Q is a darkly witty satire about how easy it is to lose ownership of our own selves.

Описание: Welcome to the darkest timeline . . . the UK debut of one of America`s most gifted young writers is a chilling fable about love in an age when even our darkest desires (not to mention our novels) have become vulnerable to malware.
When her beloved daughter, Jessie, took her life three weeks before graduating college, it left the family and all who knew Jessie stunned. Jessie was a vivacious, privileged child who was dearly loved and she was raised by a loving village, but even that was not enough to get Jessie through her darkest night. Jessie's Mom had written letters to her daughter beginning at her birth and has decided to share Jessie with the world after her daughter's death. Suicide needs to be brought out of the shadows and talked about with all young adults. Anyone who chooses death over life needs to be fully aware of the destruction that they will leave behind. Suicide is not romantic nor is it glamorous. Suicide means that you will never walk on this earth again with those who love you. Proceeds from this book will be shared with non-profit organizations which Jessie would have wanted to support: animals, conservation efforts, children, national parks, and one that her Mom wants to support, suicide prevention. Jessie's Mom is now also volunteering with Willow Tree Hospice in Kennett Square. Volunteering and supporting others help her manage her own grief. Pictures in this book, and additional pictures, can be found, in color, at the Facebook group, She Called Herself Jess.
