Lovely Bones

On December 6, 1973, when I was killed, I was fourteen years old – thus begins this tragic story. The deceased – the main character Susie Salmon – adapts to life in heaven and watches from above as her killer... tries to cover his tracks, while her family struggles to come to terms with the loss... This powerful, dramatic book is not about murder, not about violence, but about life. Life after death. Life for those left behind. Perhaps that's why it is written in such an astonishingly bright language. A story that, in the hands of a less gifted author, could have turned into a weepy melodrama, becomes here a subtle and insightful tale about family relationships and their mutability over time (Minneapolis Star Tribune).
