<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><i>How Clarissa Burden Learned to Fly</i> is the transcendent story of a young woman who, in a twenty-four hour period, journeys through startling moments of self-discovery that lead her to a courageous and life-altering decision.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"A huge-hearted, ebullient novel about ghosts, tragedy, love, redemption and one extraordinary woman's wild ride to self-discovery. Blazingly original, the remarkable Fowler breaks your heart, makes you believe in love, and whispers unbreakable truths about who we are really meant to be." <p/>-Caroline Leavitt, author of <i>Girls in Trouble</i>--<b><i>-</b></i><br><br>"In this magical, funny, at times heartbreaking book, Connie May Fowler has shown us that even a house fly can have a point of view. Compact and enchanting, yet achingly dark, it reminds me of the novels of Alice McDermott and Alice Hoffman that I love to read. Now Fowler gives us a mid-summer's night dream of her own!" <p/>-Mary Morris, author of <i>Revenge</i>--<b><i>-</b></i><br><br>"In this novel by best-selling author Fowler (<i>The Problem with Murmur Lee</i>), past and present lives collide in magical and violent ways with surprising, liberating, and redeeming results. The colorful characters include an almost-angel, carnival dwarves, and anthropomorphic animals, and the result is folksy and sophisticated, and humorous yet at times grave and appalling, with the sins of the past clearly depicted. VERDICT A seductive and thoroughly satisfying read."--<b><i>Library Journal</b></i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Connie May Fowler</b> is an essayist, screenwriter, and novelist.
