Phantom Days (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781459758827)

A mesmerizing novel -- told, in part, by a book.

Before Isabel even cracks the spine of a novel she bought on a whim ahead of an overseas trip, she senses something beginning within her. From Sydney to London and back again, the book is a quiet observer in the lives of Isabel, who discovers that "something" is a phantom pregnancy; her mother, who is recovering from cancer; and her boyfriend, who has a disturbing family history. Soon, the book begins to understand: Isabel is not safe.

Angela O'Keeffe is the master of voice, and Phantom Days is a marvel: eerie, elegant, and unforgettable. With O'Keeffe's signature emotional depth and narrative quirkiness, this novel explores the unknowability of other people, the mysteries of the body, and the strange ways stories shape, complicate, and safeguard our lives.
