In this darkly funny, striking debut, a highly unusual young woman must venture into the woods at the edge of her home to remove a curse that has plagued the women in her family for millennia - an utterly original novel with all the mesmerizing power of The Tiger’s Wife, The Snow Child, and Swamplandia!
Cursed. Maisie Cothay has never known the feel of human flesh: born with the power to kill or resurrect at her slightest touch, she has spent her childhood sequestered in her family’s manor at the edge of a mysterious forest. Maisie’s father, an anthropologist who sees her as more experiment than daughter, has warned Maisie not to venture into the woods. Locals talk of men disappearing within, emerging with addled minds and strange stories. What he does not tell Maisie is that for over a millennium her female ancestors have also vanished into the wood, never to emerge - for she is descended from a long line of cursed women.
But one day Maisie’s father disappears, and Maisie must venture beyond the walls of her carefully constructed life to find him. Away from her home for the very first time, she encounters a strange world filled with wonder and deception. Yet the farther she strays, the more the woods calls her home. For only there can Maisie finally reckon with her power and come to understand the wildest parts of herself.

Reseñas de la Crítica
“Delightful and darkly magical. Julia Fine has written a beautiful modern myth, a coming-of-age story for a girl with a worrisome power over life and death. I loved it.” (Audrey Niffenegger, author of The Time Traveler’s Wife and Her Fearful Symmetry)

This book was so unexpectedly good. Beautifully written and with an absolutely fascinating premise - I couldn't stop listening. I listened in the shower, while cooking, while washing dishes, while driving. I blazed through it, dreading it coming to an end but unable to stop.
I really look forward to any future works from Julia Fine.

So many loose ends...

The story progresses very fast to the point that some important parts are glossed over. I wouldn’t have wanted a longer story.
The narrators of the book were cast well. Easy to listen to.
I think everyone has a different expectation for a story involving witchcraft.
What is original, should be good?
