The Invisible Bones - E-book - ePub

With twenty-plus repressed years as an administrative assistant, an operation that cut down her childbearing years, and numerous disastrous love affairs, Sara Lovett launched herself backward into a pilgrimage across her past. She began traveling alone on her birthday, finishing exactly a year later with a room full of friends, altogether, for a celebration of life that she never thought was possible.
Sara visits a hundred and fifty-six people face-to-face throughout the United States, Great Britain, and Cyprus in an attempt to connect with each one of them, and to herself, outside the machine she feels swallowed into. Along the way, in this Facebook-on-foot universe she has created, there is the marked presence of a child whispering to her from the passenger seat. By allowing the voice she thought she buried years before back into her life, she finds her own voice and discovers the truth of what it takes to be a friend.
