Description
Retelling-a novel by Tsipi Keller- It is the end of the millennium. A relaxed and anticipated summer on Manhattan's East Side turns into a nightmare for the impressionable and vulnerable Sally. In this tightly woven novel, she is suspected of having murdered her closest friend, Elsbeth, with whom she has had a mysterious and absorbing relationship. Traumatized by the detectives, and by her own confused recollections, Sally experiences "subtle reality shifts, as if I existed, simultaneously, on two or more fault lines and could not always trust what I thought I saw or heard. I began to doubt small, ordinary things." Keller's lean, taut, and unsettling prose enhances the simmering suspense that permeates this novel, as she fuses the elements of a Rashomon-type narrative with a Hitchcock classic.
