When Clarissa Iverton was fourteen years old, her mother disappeared leaving Clarissa to be raised by her father. Upon his death, Clarissa, now twenty-eight, discovers he wasn't her father at all.

Rezension zu „Let the Northern Lights Erase Your Name “
"* 'The whole book [has] peculiarly biting charm, a narrative that manages to be both eerily surreal and fundamentally credible... In some ways reminiscent of Anne Tyler... Vida's novel has more in common with Joan Didion's masterpiece Play It As It Lays.' New York Times * 'A brilliantly constructed lightening-flash of a novel: compelling, surprising, economical, lush, beautifully written.' George Saunders * 'A taut, intricately layered page-turner that looks deeply and fearlessly into matters of profound human concern.' Michael Cunningham * 'Marvellous.' Ann Packer"
Pressezitat
Vida's prose has the purity of the Lapland winter that it describes... the writing possesses the clarity of church bells or winter light. Neel Mukherjee The Times
