Opis

Eithe is a young woman uncertain of her place in life - even her name is an ambiguity bestowed upon her by a mother who fails to survive her disastrous birth. Locked into a destructive and abusive relationship, Eithe - who is stronger than she knows - makes a momentous and life changing decision when she takes her fate into her own hands and escapes into an adventure of self-discovery. As Eithe begins to explore this sudden freedom, she finds herself unexpectedly in the middle of another more sinister reality where she embarks on a metaphysical journey with 'the man in the mirror'. Eithe's journey asks questions of the reader: where do we go when we are unconscious? Where roams the spirit of a person in a coma? Despite her vulnerability, Eithe is drawn into that limboid in-between place, as she finds her own destiny and that of the man in the mirror are inextricably linked. Eithe's Way has all the elements of a mystery thriller: it has cops and the ultimate robbers of our age; it has bad guys and quarry; it is thoroughly modern in its themes and nuances. Darkly humorous and at times brutal, this story of the transience and impermanence of life is written in an elegant style that takes us into the 'other world', where the veil between the living and the not quite dead is at its thinnest.
