Given surprising leeway by her family for her increasingly erratic behaviour, she nevertheless feels ever more stifled and repressed. Motherhood, womanhood, the banality of love, the terrors of desire, the brutality of 'another person carrying your heart forever' \u003cem\u003eDie, My Love\u003c\/em\u003e faces all this with a raw intensity. It's not a question of if a breaking point will be reached, but rather when, and how violent a form will it take?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's impossible to come out unscathed from reading Ariana Harwicz. The language of \u003cem\u003eDie, My Love\u003c\/em\u003e cuts like a scalpel even as it attains a kind of cinematic splendour, evoking the likes of John Cassavetes, David Lynch and John Ford. In a text that explores the destabilising effects of passion and its absence, immersed in the psyche of a female protagonist always on the verge of madness (in the tradition of Sylvia Plath and Clarice Lispector), Harwicz moulds language, submitting it to her will in irreverent prose. Bruising and confrontational, yet anchored in an unapologetic beauty and lyricism, \u003cem\u003eDie, My Love\u003c\/em\u003e is a unique reading experience that quickly becomes addictive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Charco Press","offers":[{"title":"Die, My Love | Ariana Harwicz | Paperback | 9781999722784 | New | Fiction 1209319","offer_id":50550519759106,"sku":"1209319","price":30.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/3327\/5906\/files\/61NeWZBJqVL.jpg?v=1790467810","url":"https:\/\/boswellsbooks.com\/products\/die-my-love","provider":"Boswell's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
