Squatting there now, she must care for her spirited young daughter and scrape together enough money to leave before winter arrives-or before they are found out. Relying on the island for sustenance and answers-bladderwrack, rosehips, tenacious little green crabs; smells held by the damp walls of the house, field guides and religious texts, a failed invention left behind by her missing father-Tuck lives moment-by-moment through the absurdity, beauty, paranoia, and hunger that shoots through her life, as her husband struggles to detox. Exquisitely written and formally daring, Lungfish tells the story of a woman grappling through the lies she has been told-and those she has told herself-to arrive at the truth of who she is and where she must go. Meghan Gilliss's debut is a novel about addiction, doubt, marriage, motherhood, and learning to see in the dark" -- $c Publisher. 650 0 $a Women $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Marriage $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Mothers $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Squatters $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Drug addiction $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Maine $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Domestic fiction. $2 lcgft. 941 $a 10 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240409043007.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20231031010503.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010025142.0 952 $l STPC124 $d 20230418020125.0 952 $l GHPD771 $d 20230407010221.0 952 $l XAPE737 $d 20230404021030.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20221208011102.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20221102014323.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20221022011645.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20221005010311.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=1201433A447311EDBB956A3F21ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
