\u201cA monumental accomplishment, a shimmering masterpiece.\u201d \u2015Michael Schaub, The Boston Globe<\/p>\n

\u201cA book that I will recommend to people for the rest of my life.\u201d \u2015Dakota Johnson, Bustle<\/p>\n

From the acclaimed author of Parakeet, Marie-Helene Bertino\u2019s Beautyland is a wise, tender novel about a woman who doesn\u2019t feel at home on Earth.<\/p>\n

At the moment when Voyager 1 is launched into space carrying its famous golden record, a baby of unusual perception is born to a single mother in Philadelphia. Adina Giorno is tiny and jaundiced, but she reaches for warmth and light. As a child, she recognizes that she is different: She possesses knowledge of a faraway planet. The arrival of a fax machine enables her to contact her extraterrestrial relatives, beings who have sent her to report on the oddities of Earthlings. <\/p>\n

For years, as she moves through the world and makes a life for herself among humans, she dispatches transmissions on the terrors and surprising joys of their existence. Then, at a precarious moment, a beloved friend urges Adina to share her messages with the world. Is there a chance she is not alone?<\/p>\n

Marie-Helene Bertino\u2019s Beautyland is a novel of startling originality about the fragility and resilience of life on our Earth and in our universe. It is a remarkable evocation of the feeling of being in exile at home, and it introduces a gentle, unforgettable alien for our times.<\/p>\n
