Housekeeping: A Novel is a work of literary fiction that follows the lives of two orphaned sisters, Ruth and Lucille, as they are raised by a series of relatives in the fictional town of Fingerbone, Idaho. The story centers on their unconventional aunt, Sylvie, who becomes their guardian and introduces a transient, unkempt lifestyle that challenges traditional notions of home and stability. The narrative delves into memory, loss, and the fluid boundaries between the domestic and the wild, offering a meditative exploration of what it means to belong. more
