New York TimesHeartfelt, touching and delightfully quirky Good HousekeepingIt was a source of entertainment at Maple Street Cemetery. Both funny and sad, the kind of story we like best. Natural-born healer Emma Starling once had big plans for her life, but shes lost her way. A medical school dropout, shes come back to small-town Everton, New Hampshire, to care for her father, who is dying from a mysterious brain disease. Clive Starling has been hallucinating small animals, as well as having visions of the ghost of a long-dead naturalist, Ernest Harold Baynes, once known for letting wild animals live in his house. This ghost has been giving Clive some ideas on how to spend his final days.Emma arrives home knowing she must face her dads illness, her moms judgment, and her younger brothers recent stint in rehab, but shes unprepared to find that her former best friend from high school is missing, with no one bothering to look for her. The police say they dont spend much time looking for drug addicts. Emmas dad is the only one convinced the young woman might still be alive, and Emma is hopeful he could be right. Someone should look for her, at least. Emma isnt really trying to be a hero, but somehow she and her father bring about just the kind of miracle the town needs.Set against the backdrop of a small town in the throes of a very real opioid crisis, Unlikely Animals is a tragicomic novel about familial expectations, imperfect friendships, and the possibility of resurrecting that which had been thought irrevocably lost.Hartnetts whimsical storytelling casts a spell Publishers WeeklyAn absurdist, laugh-out-loud family drama about intergenerational healing Kirkus Reviews Author Biography Annie Hartnett is the author of Rabbit Cake.
