We're never quite sure what made Chloe take a flight to an unnamed country in South America. There she lives in self-imposed
exile following a suicide attempt.
This series of short vignettes provides a glimpse of Chloe's scattered thoughts as she attempts to adjust to life in a new setting and recover from her depressive episode. Amidst the quirky observational humour of her internal monologue, a story of loneliness emerges, as she tries (for the most part, unsuccessfully) to form meaningful connections with the people she meets, and does her best to avoid, in her new surroundings.
At times biting and sarcastic, at times beautiful and reflective, this debut novel takes an intimate look at depression, with a sharp and witty narrator who rides the line between self-aware and self-deprecating. A quirky, sweet story of overcoming hopelessness and finding human connection.
