Lasko

By Catherine Cooper

"Extraordinary--and totally engrossing. L sko is at once an intimate tale of personal awakening, a love story, and a provocative parable about the lures and dangers of influence." JOHANNA SKIBSRUD, author of Island

When M ja was seven, her mother disappeared. Now M ja has an urge to do the same. She leaves her fianc in Canada and follows signs that she believes are leading her to the Czech Republic, her mother's home country.

In Prague, she falls in love with Kuba, a charismatic musician who is a rising star in Czech New Age circles. As she navigates this irresistible and overwhelming relationship, M ja is guided by dreams, visions, and synchronicities, but she also suffers from a mysterious illness and the unshakeable sense that something is terribly wrong.

Revealing both the falseness and truth of the stories we tell ourselves, Catherine Cooper's novel is sharply observed, darkly funny, and ultimately moving--a profound meditation on the pain and potency of love.
