Hollow Heart

In this courageous, inventive, irreverent, and shrewd novel, Viola Di Grado tells the story of a suicide and what follows. She gives voice to an astonishing vision of life after life, portraying the awful longing and sense of loss that plague the dead, together with the solitude provoked by the impossibility of communicating. The afterlife itself is seen as a dark, seething place where one is preyed upon by the cruel and unrelenting elements. *Hollow Heart* will frighten as it provokes, enlighten as it causes concern. If ever there were a novel that follows Kafka's prescription for a book to be an axe for the frozen sea within us, it is *Hollow Heart*. In this, Di Grado's second novel after *70% Acrylic 30% Wool,* the twenty-seven-year-old prodigy gives proof of her reputation as a singular and explosive talent.
