Book Description

Publication Date: January 1, 2006 | ISBN-10: 0973769475 | ISBN-13: 978-0973769470

Prose. Dana Killmeyer's lush and assured debut novel introduces the reader to a fine new prose stylist. Her controlled, acute imagery strongly illustrates the protagonist's transition, conflict, and awakening in an enthralling narrative about life and personal growth. PARADISE, OR THE PART THAT DIES is a well-written character study of inner turmoil where the straight and clear shifts to the darkly mystical. "Her prose is clear, crisp, understated - yet at times still manages to convey the warp of the dream"-Michael S. Begnal.

This review is from: Paradise, or the Part That Dies (Paperback)

The author is truly incredible. It is hard to believe this is her first novel. It feels like I have been reading her stuff for years.
