Emma Healey

    Emma Healey duikt meesterlijk in de complexiteit van geheugen en perceptie, en verkent gebieden waar het verleden zich verweeft met het heden. Haar schrijven wordt gekenmerkt door scherpzinnig inzicht in de menselijke psyche en een bekwame opbouw van spanning. De stijl van de auteur is zowel precies als suggestief, en trekt lezers mee in een maalstroom van onzekerheid en emotionele ontdekking. Door haar verhalen onderzoekt ze vragen over identiteit en de zoektocht naar waarheid in de nevel van het vergeten.

      A mystery, an unsolved crime and one of the most unforgettable characters since Mark Haddon's Christopher. Meet Maud ... 'Elizabeth is missing' reads the note in Maud's pocket in her own handwriting, and the one on the wall. Maud's been getting forgetful. She keeps buying peach slices when she has a cupboard full, forgets to drink the cups of tea she's made and writes notes to remind herself of things. But Maud is determined to discover what has happened to her friend, Elizabeth, and what it has to do with the unsolved disappearance of her sister Sukey, years back, just after the war. A fast-paced mystery, an unforgettable voice: you will laugh and cry but you'll never forget Maud.
