I am homeless if this is not my home
(Book)

"This is a Borzoi book."

"A tragicomic novel about death and devotion. A teacher visiting his dying brother in the Bronx. A mysterious journal from the 19th century stolen from a boarding house. A therapy clown and an assassin both presumed dead but perhaps not dead at all . . . A meditation on what it means to be haunted by the past. To what extent--both in our national history and in the heart--does life persist on into death and vice versa? With her distinctive, irresistible wordplay and singular wry humor and wisdom, Moore deftly reveals how, even in death, it's life that reverberates. Bold, meditative, theatrical, this new novel is an inventive, poetic portrait of lovers, siblings and the stories we have all been told, which may or may not be true but that take us on a windswept, imagined journey into the tragic-comic landscape that is, unmistakably, the Lorrie Moore Zone."--,Provided by publisher.
