Publisher's Synopsis

  • Set in the Philippines, a country that is vastly underrepresented in fiction
  • The "he said, she said" theme resonates with the best-selling novels Fates and Furies by Lauren Groff and by Gillian Flynn
  • A fabulist love story about a woman with wings that twists into a darker, more ominous tale as a husband misinterprets his wife's secrets
  • Fans of small-town fiction will sink into the lush rural landscape and the mix of village voices that take turns narrating the story of two people's lives
  • Magical realism in the vein of Gabriel Garcia Marquez and Isabelle Allende
  • Contemporary fiction fans will appreciate discovering a distinctive voice that offers an up-close, tale-telling experience similar to Helen Oyeyemi's acclaimed Boy, Snow, Bird
  • Accessible for adults and older teens; one of the narrators is the couple's daughter
