'America's preeminent fiction writer' New Yorker 'A raw, propulsive tale of love and grief' Mail on Sunday
A novel of love and loss from the bestselling and prizewinning author of Blonde.
Michaela and her husband have moved to the starkly beautiful but uncanny landscape of New Mexico, to take up an academic residency. But when Gerard is struck by a fatal illness, their life begins to resemble a nightmare. At thirty-seven, Michaela must first face the terrifying prospect of widowhood, then the chaos of the days when Gerard is gone.
Haunting and utterly heart-wrenching, Breathe explores the intense madness of grief and what happens when a love cannot be surrendered.
