New York Times Book Review by Edan Lepucki of “The Resurrection of Joan Ashby” by Cherise Wolas: Is this about another writer with multiple personality?
The cover of the book has the kind of fragmented face by which publishers convey that the story is about a person with multiple personality.
In the title of the novel, the word “resurrection” seems to imply that the protagonist, writer Joan Ashby, will eventually “resurrect” her writing personality after its death-like hibernation during the time that her family personality had taken over.
The print version in tomorrow’s New York Times Book Review is titled: “Lost and Found: A writer, her career derailed by domesticity and motherhood, tries to recover her self.”
