An extraordinary achievement A. L. Kennedy\n\n‘An enjoyably uncategorisable and atmospheric book, a richly dark and idiosyncratic fairytale for grownups.’ The Guardian\n\nEdward Carey's witty and entrancing story of a young woman trapped in a ramshackle English playhouse – and the mysterious figure who threatens its very survival.\n\n\nNorwich, 1901. Edith Holler spends her days among the eccentric denizens of the Holler Theatre, warned by her domineering father that the playhouse will literally tumble down if she should ever leave.Fascinated by tales of the city she knows only from afar, young Edith decides to write a play of her own about Mawther Meg, a monstrous figure said to have used the blood of countless children to make the local delicacy, Beetle Spread. But when her father suddenly announces his engagement to a peculiar woman named Margaret Unthank, Edith scrambles to protect her father, the theatre, and her play – the one thing that’s truly hers – from the newcomer’s sinister designs. \n\n\n\n\n\nTeeming with unforgettable characters and illuminated by Carey’s trademark illustrations, Edith Holler is a surprisingly modern fable of one young woman’s struggle to escape her family’s control and craft her own creative destiny.

From a critically acclaimed performance artist, a funny, vivid, and ultimately heartbreaking memoir about forging identity in the chasm between cultures and classesAnya Liftig grew up with a foot in two very different worlds. While her mother’s upbringing was so rural that the other kids called her “holler rat,” her father came from a comfortable, upper-middle-class Jewish family. Anya spent her childhood school years in Connecticut and her summers in the holler. Shaped by the experience, she would go on to win a scholarship to Yale and become an acclaimed artist, using provocative performances to explore the contradictions and unanswered questions of her life. But when the world Anya was building for herself shattered, she was forced to reconcile where she’d come from with who she was and who she wanted to be.In Holler Rat, Liftig skillfully interweaves family lore from her childhood with descriptions of her performance art pieces and scenes of the year-long period in which her life fell apart, and plumbs the cathartic self-reckoning that followed. She takes us from her Mamaw’s porch to the site of a violent family land feud; from Yale to the rancid odors of a pre-gentrified Bushwick loft; and from making out with a 14-pound salmon to having 243 raw eggs pelted at her in the name of art. In visceral, beautiful prose that ranges from raunchy and outrageous to serious and tragic, Holler Rat is the origin story of an unconventional artistic life and a captivating account of the stumbling blocks, sacrifices, and discoveries along the way.

Marzo 1901, l’amata regina Vittoria è morta e il figlio, ormai anziano, ha preso il suo posto sul trono. Nella città di Norwich, la giovane Edith Holler trascorre le sue giornate tra i chiassosi e pittoreschi abitanti dell’Holler Theatre, di cui il padre è direttore e proprietario. Discendente di una famiglia di attori e impresari, Edith è una dodicenne brillante e curiosa, vittima tuttavia di un’oscura profezia secondo la quale il teatro è destinato a crollare, e lei a morire, se dovesse mai lasciare le sue stanze. Affascinata dai racconti della città che conosce solo da lontano e vorace lettrice delle sue leggende – tra storie di fantasmi, antichi re e cavalieri –, Edith decide di scrivere un’opera teatrale tutta sua: un adattamento della leggenda di Mawther Meg, una donna vissuta centinaia d’anni prima che, si dice, abbia salvato la città da un’invasione di tarli e abbia creato una leccornia divenuta nel tempo rinomata in tutto il paese. Edith, tuttavia, è convinta che qualcosa non quadri in quella storia e che la vicenda nasconda qualcosa di molto più oscuro e terribile, per questo vuole raccontarla tramite ciò che conosce meglio: il teatro. Quando, però, suo padre annuncia all’improvviso il suo fidanzamento con una donna sconosciuta, strana quanto imponente, di nome Margaret Unthank, facoltosa ereditiera della famiglia che continua a produrre la crema inventata da Mawther Meg, Edith si trova a dover proteggere il padre, il teatro e la sua opera dalle minacce che questa nuova situazione porta con sé.
