About This Item
Plume. As New. 2006. Paperback. Remainder; 8 oz.; 196 pages; Unread remainder mark Signed by Author. Philip Beards stunning debut novel is fifteen-year-old Tess DeNunzios letter to her sister, Zoe, lost to a hit-and-run driver on a day when it seemed that nothing mattered but the tragedies playing out in New York and Washington. Dear Zoe is a remarkable study of grief, adolescence, and healing with a pitch-perfect narrator who is at once sharp and naïve, world- worried and self-centered, funny and heartbreakingly honest. Tess begins her letter to Zoe as a means of figuring out her own life, her place in the world, but the result is a novel of rare power and grace that tells us much about ours. .
