All That's Left to Tell
All That's Left to Tell | Daniel Lowe
10 posts | 4 read | 26 to read
Like Tim O Brien s Going After Cacciato, All That s Left to Tell celebrates not just the power of storytelling but the deeply human need for it in even the most dire situations. Alternately gripping and dreamy, Daniel Lowe s debut imagines what the stories we tell reveal about ourselves, and how they may save us. Stewart O Nan, author of West of SunsetEvery night, Marc Laurent, an American taken hostage in Pakistan, is bound and blindfolded. And every night, a woman he knows only as Josephine visits his cell. At first, her questions are mercenary: is there anyone back home who will pay the ransom? But when Marc can offer no name, she asks him a question about his daughter that is even more terrifying than his captivity. And so begins a strange yet increasingly comforting ritual, in which Josephine and Marc tell each other stories. As these stories build upon one another, a father and daughter start to find their way toward understanding each other again."

Djspens That looks like a perfect weekend! 5y
Emilymdxn I‘m having the same weekend myself! I‘m an extrovert personally but currently I‘m sick and exhausted and trying to focus on giving my body what it needs rather than jamming in more plans (which made me sick in the first place...) 5y
ShannonColleen @Emilymdxn I get that! It is so hard to slow down sometimes, but so necessary! 5y

#TBRtemptation post! This just-released debut thriller is tagged as "Room" meets "The Crying Game". It's about a man & his relationship with his daughter& his captor . Marc's a mid-level exec taken hostage in Karachi. His only interactions are with Josephine, who asks him who they can keep calling for more ransom money. ...Then she asks why he didn't attend his daughter's funeral. So begins a nightly ritual of stories. #blameLitsy #blameMrBook ?

Day 12 of the #Riotgrams challenge: outside! This is the book I'm reading today and this is what it looks like outside right now. We received 22 inches of snow over the last few days and are expected to get 16-24 more in the next 24 hours. BRING IT. ❄️🌨📚

ElizabethAndino SNOW DAY! 7y

Linda906 So jealous! Less than an inch so far this winter near Washington DC. 😒❄️😒 7y
Juli @Linda906 I know! We could use a little of that cold stuff! 7y
Kindredanne Wow!! I wish it would snow like that where I am!!! 7y
quirkyreader The big storm mostly passed over Indiana. We got some snow on Thursday, but it all melted off. Yesterday it got close to 70. So I guess we are having a strawberry spring. 7y
unabridgedchick Your snow is so pretty! Mine is just plowed up piles. We're getting more snow today, too! 7y
ephemeralwaltz I really like that cover 😍 great picture! 7y
Chachic Wow, it's all white outside! It's eternally summer here in Singapore so I never see things like this. 7y
Betty Did the book get wet? 7y
Liberty @unabridgedchick That's looking out onto the snow in our backyard. The snow in front of the house is pretty gross. 7y
balletbookworm I am so jealous - it feels nothing like winter here in Iowa and we've had almost no snow. It makes me sad! 😭 7y
Jennick2004 I was thinking the same thing as @Betty aaah book in the snow?! Lol 7y
monkeygirlsmama Beautiful photo, but how'd the book fair in all that snow- even for just a few seconds? 7y
geekerydo This is an excellent photo - I love how stark it all looks 7y
Reviewsbylola I could not even handle that amount of snow. 😱 7y
MyNamesParadise Awesome photo! This is waiting for me at the library! 7y
Belles So pretty. It almost makes that snow doable. But I'll take my Minnesota 52 degrees right now. 7y
Jillsandypants That's a beautiful picture! 7y
blondie Such a gorgeous photo! 7y
KerriArista I'm jealous! There's not even a hint of snow this year in Dallas. 7y
Kitty_Rochsmith Where are you? So jealous! 7y
BookBabe That's more than @MrBook and I have gotten here in the Pocono mountains of Pennsylvania! ❄️❄️❄️ Time to snuggle with kitties, tea, and a good book! (Well, in your case, several good books) 😉 7y
