Dazzled by her seeming exoticism, the Smarts begin to examine the accidents of their lives under the searing lens of Amber's perceptions. When the mother Eve finally banishes her from the cottage, Amber disappears from their sight, but not-- as they find when they return home to London--from their profoundly altered lives. Fearlessly intelligent, disarmingly playful, "The accidental" is a Joycean tour-de -force of literary improvisation that explores the nature of truth, the role of chance, and the transformative power of storytelling. 538 Requires OverDrive Media Console (file size: 141193 KB). 538 Mode of access: World Wide Web. 650 0 Strangers|vFiction.|vSound recordings. 650 0 Summer resorts|vFiction.|vSound recordings. 650 0 Women biographers|vFiction.|vSound recordings. 650 0 Truthfulness and falsehood|vFiction.|vSound recordings. 651 0 Norfolk (England)|vFiction. 700 1 O'Neill, Heather,|eperformer. 700 1 Nielsen, Stina,|eperformer. 700 1 Woodman, Jeff,|eperformer. 700 1 Prebble, Simon,|eperformer. 700 1 Moore, Ruth,|eperformer. 856 40 |uhttps://naperville.overdrive.com/media/126062|zAvailable on OverDrive/Libby
