This is a must-read.' -Clea Koff, author of The Bone Woman 'Still Life with Bones will hold readers rapt. A startling and profound meditation on death and resilience.' -T. M. Luhrmann, author of How God Becomes Real 'In this unforgettable debut, Alexa Hagerty reveals the intimacy and sacredness of forensics... a slow, intricate counterweight to the obliterating power of modern violence. Still Life with Bones is at once horrifying and impossibly hopeful.' -Francisco Cantú, New York Times bestselling author of The Line Becomes a River
