Ellery Goes Dark

By Alisa Kennedy Jones

A must-read for fans of Maria Semple, Meg Mason, and Catherine Newman, Ellery Goes Dark is a sharp, hilarious novel about a perfectionist talk show host whose life unravels on air--proving that midlife reinvention is messy, surreal, and sometimes guided by the ghost of George Michael.

Ellery Goes Dark is a sharp, sexy midlife rom-com about a perfectionist New York talk-show host whose on-air epileptic seizure shatters her career and identity. Wired-shut and silenced, Ellery must survive a smoldering stuffed-shirt Harvard neurologist, teenage daughters, public humiliation, and the ghost of George Michael as her spirit guide through a surreal pharmacological bardo--on a journey to reclaim her voice, her body, and her life.
