Alli Vail - Brooklyn Thomas Isn't Here

Our latest podcast, hosts Simone, Tany and Deb discuss “Brooklyn Thomas Isn’t Here” a novel by Alli Vail. Her best friend is missing, her career is a disaster, she's stuck living with her parents, and now her heart isn't beating. Can Brooklyn Thomas confront her past to save her present? Brooklyn Thomas is pretty sure she’s mostly dead. She can’t feel her heart beat and she’s disappearing: her reflection keeps vanishing from mirrors. No one else seems to notice. To top it all off, she’s hallucinating stars from all her favourite TV shows who want Brooklyn to pull herself together and face some hard truths.

This book explores how women contort and minimize themselves to fit the roles society and family offer them, and the serious price they pay for doing so.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
