28 reviews"The word 'masterpiece' has been cheapened by too many blurbs, but My Absolute Darling absolutely is one" (Stephen King). A brilliant and immersive, all-consuming read.
"My Absolute Darling is, very obviously, difficult to read... [b]ut it's also nearly impossible to put down. Tallent does a masterful job explaining why some abuse victims stay with the people who hurt them, especially when they've never known a life without abuse: "Her moments of happiness occur right at the margin of the unbearable." - Michael Schaub, NPR
Turtle Alveston is a survivor. At fourteen, she roams the woods along the northern California coast. The creeks, tide pools, and rocky islands are her haunts and her hiding grounds, and she is known to wander for miles. But while her physical world is expansive, her personal one is small and treacherous: Turtle has grown up isolated since the death of her mother, in the thrall of her tortured and charismatic father, Martin.
She knows the use of every gun on her wall. She knows how to snare a rabbit, sharpen a blade and splint a bone. She knows that her daddy loves her more than anything else in this world and he’ll do whatever it takes to keep her with him. But she doesn’t know why she feels so different from the other girls at school; why the line between love and pain can be so hard to see. Or why making a friend may be the bravest and most terrifying thing she has ever done.
"...[a] brutal, brilliant debut...Tallent is an amazing writer. His prose is expansive and ornate, wild and bold. Much of it is spent describing the beautiful, dense, dangerous landscape and seascape that both imperil and shelter Turtle... Reading this book is like watching an electrical storm, both beautiful and dangerous." - Pamela Miller, The Minneapolis Star Tribune
Shot through with striking language, My Absolute Darling is an urgently told, profoundly moving read that marks the debut of an extraordinary new writer.
