Unless: A Novel by Carol Shields

$11.00

Goodreads: 3.63/5

Reta Winters has many reasons to be happy, among them, her three almost grown daughters, her twenty-six-year relationship with their father, her work translating the larger-than-life French intellectual and feminist Danielle Westerman, and the modest success she has had with her own novel.

Then one day, her eldest daughter, Norah, disappears and ends up mute and begging on a Toronto street corner. Around Norah’s neck is a hand-lettered sign reading GOODNESS. And Reta, full of sudden anguished insight into the injustices of the gendered world, must tackle the mystery of her daughter’s message.


*Note: The previous owner scored the top of the pages along edge with a red line of Sharpie. The pages are otherwise unmarked.
