Reviews
Dark wit, tenderness, music, enchantment - they're all part of a story that remains oddly relatable despite its dazzling strangeness., It would not surprise me if Chouette finds a place in the feminist literary canon. It has lingered in my mind in a way that only the most original works do. In its exploration of difference - of disability, of queerness - it feels truly modern, but in its themes of love and sacrifice, it is the oldest tale in the world., Chouette is deeply felt, linguistically gorgeous, and wonderfully disorienting up to its final breathless pages--a stunning meditation on motherhood and identity truly unlike anything I've ever read before., Searing and ethereal.... [Chouette focuses] squarely on Tiny's fierce love as she battles her husband and nature to allow Chouette to be wild and exact, stakes that feel frightening and true to life.... A harrowing and magnificent fable., "Oshetsky's book is surrealism at its best.... "Chouette," which abounds with humor and lush imagery, forces parents to consider their relationship with their children.... The book has deep and universal resonance.", By turns poetic, gory, heartbreaking and strange.... An engrossing, surreal portrayal of motherhood.
Synopsis
LONGLISTED FOR THE 2022 PEN/FAULKNER AWARD FOR FICTION "Claire Oshetsky's novel is a marvel: its language a joy, its imagination dizzying." --Rumaan Alam, New York Times bestselling author of Leave the World Behind An exhilarating, provocative novel of motherhood in extremis Tiny is pregnant. Her husband is delighted. "You think this baby is going to be like you, but it's not like you at all," she warns him. "This baby is an owl-baby." When Chouette is born small and broken-winged, Tiny works around the clock to meet her daughter's needs. Left on her own to care for a child who seems more predatory bird than baby, Tiny vows to raise Chouette to be her authentic self. Even in those times when Chouette's behaviors grow violent and strange, Tiny's loving commitment to her daughter is unwavering. When she discovers that her husband is on an obsessive and increasingly dangerous quest to find a "cure" for their daughter, Tiny must decide whether Chouette should be raised to fit in or to be herself--and learn what it truly means to be a mother. Arresting, darkly funny, and unsettling, Chouette is a brilliant exploration of ambition, sacrifice, perceptions of ability, and the ferocity of motherly love.
