PRAISE FOR

Our Endless Numbered Days

“Graciously written and capriciously imagined, Our Endless Numbered Days holds up a magnifying lens to the human spirit and deftly captures both its fragility and its resilience. The brilliant ending, like the best endings do, casts new light on all that comes before it. ”

—CATHY MARIE BUCHANAN, author of the New York Times bestseller The Painted Girls

“I finished this book and turned right back to the first page to start it again. Like the wilderness into which Claire Fuller’s characters disappear, Our Endless Numbered Days is rigged with barbs and poisons, tricks and tragedies. It’s weird and wild and sometimes terrifying, but it’s also beautiful and heartbreaking and breathlessly alive. ”

—AMY STEWART, author of the New York Times bestseller The Drunken Botanist

“Our Endless Numbered Days is suspenseful, utterly riveting, and as dark as midnight in the forest. ”

—REBECCA HUNT, author of Everland and Mr. Chartwell

“The lasting impression of Our Endless Numbered Days, which gracefully seesaws back and forth between two different time periods, is not one of how horrid an experience can be, but of how resourceful and resilient the human psyche can become in order to survive. The result is beautiful. It will keep you turning the pages, and long afterwards it will keep you turning over in your mind the events in this haunting story. ”

—YANNICK MURPHY, author of The Call and This Is the Water

“Powerfully imagined and written with a dazzlingly effective economy of style, Claire Fuller has mastered beautifully the building of jeopardy that the reader can see while the protagonist cannot. The ending is truly dark and courageous. BRAVA!”

—MORAG JOSS, author of Half Broken Things

“I was utterly gripped by the hypnotic atmosphere. ”

—ESTHER FREUD, author of Hideous Kinky and Mr. Mac and Me
