SHORTLISTED FOR THE WOMEN´S PRIZE FOR FICTION 2022
PULITZER PRIZE-WINNING AUTHOR OF THE NIGHT WATCHMAN
-----------------------------------------------------
In this stunning and timely novel, Pulitzer Prize and National Book Award-winning author Louise Erdrich creates a wickedly funny ghost story, a tale of passion, of a complex marriage and of a woman´s relentless errors.
Louise Erdrich´s latest novel, The Sentence, asks what we owe to the living, the dead, to the reader and to the book. A small independent bookstore in Minneapolis is haunted from November 2019 to November 2020 by the store´s most annoying customer. Flora dies on All Souls´ Day, but she simply won´t leave the store. Tookie, who has landed a job selling books after years of incarceration that she survived by reading ´with murderous attention,´ must solve the mystery of this haunting while at the same time trying to understand all that occurs in Minneapolis during a year of grief, astonishment, isolation and furious reckoning.
The Sentence begins on All Souls´ Day 2019 and ends on All Souls´ Day 2020. Its mystery and proliferating ghost stories during this one year propel a narrative as rich, emotional and profound as anything Louise Erdrich has written.
