Creatures That Fly Free

By Karolina Sulcova

A bittersweet coming-of-age novel following an intricate web of relationships woven within an isolated institution. Blending aspects of mystery, gothic fiction, literary prose and touches of magical realism.

Beatrice and Celeste are bound fast, inseparable in the face of their tumultuous teenage years. Living in a group home under rigorous rule of their caretaker, Astrid, they navigate the passing seasons.
Everything changes when Beatrice slips into a coma following a nasty fall on a rock-and from grace. Celeste is left to deal with the painful absence of her best friend.
Once Beatrice awakens, those closest to her begin to feel betrayed when they realize their mourning is not quite over yet. The Beatrice who comes back in no way resembles the Beatrice who left them.
