Flying in Place

Emma is twelve, a perfectly normal girl in a perfectly normal home. With a perfectly normal father ... who comes into her bedroom every night in the hours before dawn. Emma will do anything to escape. From the visits. From the bodies. From the breathing. Even go walking on the ceiling, which is where Emma meets Ginny, the sister who died before she was born. Ginny, who knows things. Ginny, who can fly.... Once in a while, a first novel arrives like a bolt of lightning, commanding attention with an explosion of power, grace, and light. Flying in Place is such a book. As unflinching as The Lovely Bones, as startling as Beloved, it is a work to bear witness-with bravery and compassion-to the experience of thousands of readers and their loved ones.Palwick, Susan is the author of 'Flying in Place', published 2005 under ISBN 9780765313867 and ISBN 0765313863.
