A mysterious fire, an attempted murder, and the unpredictable nature of the universe. These are just some of the challenges nineteen-year-old Claire Williams must face as she seeks to embrace her true self and break free from the confines of her restrictive upbringing.
Claire believes true love will deliver her from the fear and crushing loneliness that has accompanied her since childhood. But when she becomes embroiled in a passionate love affair with her physics professor, a cascade of catastrophic events turns her already complicated world upside down.
Simha Haddad's debut novel is a transformative coming-of-age story. Shimmering with hope and redemption, it reminds us that we are just a glimmer of light somewhere on this rainbow.
