Items related to And Now You Can Go
A sharply humorous and fast-paced first novel about the effects - some predictable, some wildly unexpected - that an encounter at gunpoint have on a previously assured young woman. The gun is pointed at 21-year old Ellis as she walks through a New York park. Although she escapes unharmed, and without being robbed, she is left psychologically reeling. Over the next weeks Ellis keeps everyone at bay; the police, suitors who want to save her, and the university therapist who hints that her sweaters are too tight. But when Ellis accompanies her mother, a nurse, on a mission in the Philippines, she finds that life - even if held up - cannot be held back, and neither, finally, can she.

Review:
'I was captivated from the first page, compelled to keep on reading until I finished it... Vendela Vida's novel is a gift to the reader, a story that contains what I love best about fiction: an idiosyncratic voice, keenly observed gestures, intelligence and heart, and a story of both large and small moments that reverberate in unpredictable ways. It is the debut of a writer with enormous talents.' Amy Tan 'And Now You Can Go's narrator is a cool, quirky customer, but she's ever ready to do something generous, something noble, something stamped with grace.' David Schickler, author of Kissing in Manhattan
