Grace's father believes in science & builds his daughter a dollhouse with lights that really work. Grace's mother takes her skinny-dipping in the lake & teaches her about African hyena men who devour their wives in their sleep. Grace's world, of fact & fiction, marvels and madness, is slowly unravelling because her family is coming apart before her eyes. Now eight-year-old Grace must choose between her two very different, very flawed parents, a choice that will take her on a dizzying journey, away from her home in Vermont to the boozy, flooded streets of New Orleans - & into the equally wondrous and frightening realm of her own imagination.

With eloquence and compassion, Jenny Offill weaves a luminous story of a wounded family & of a young girl yearning to understand the difference between fiction, fact, & hope. A novel of vibrant imagination & searing intelligence, Last Things is a stunning literary achievement.
