Marigold and Rose (Paperback)

"Marigold was absorbed in her book; she had gotten as far as the Vs." So begins Marigold and Rose, Louise Glück's astonishing chronicle of the first year in the life of twin girls. Imagine a fairy tale that is also a multigenerational saga; a piece for two hands that is also a symphony; a poem that is also, in the spirit of Kafka's Metamorphosis, an incandescent act of autobiography. An enchanting, playful, and absolutely singular fable from the Nobel laureate and Pulitzer Prize winner.
