Alena Bruzas
"With deft, atmospheric prose and lush, otherworldly lore, Bruzas captures the essence of self-identity, belonging and the kind of love that both consumes and inspires. A dazzling modern fairytale.”
—Kika Hatzopoulou, bestselling author of Threads That Bind
Sylvie has taken a summer job at a remote and alluring prairie preserve in the middle of the Great Plains. It’s a much-needed escape—from her sadness, from her cruelly distant father, and maybe even from herself: She longs to be free of the intrusive, obsessive thoughts that are her constant burden.
Soon, she finds herself drawn to a stunning shepherd boy and can’t stop herself from going to him at night, even though she’s been warned to keep away. During the day, though, she begins to develop a friendship with another boy, a strange-looking and strangely gentle coworker named Jack . . . and gradually to uncover the mysteries of this place that feels more like home than anyplace has before it.
But those mysteries include a powerful curse, and when she uncovers the truth of it, she becomes recklessly determined to break it—to free the one trapped in its spell. She fails to consider the possibility that her actions could break much more than just the curse, and that some burdens demand to be borne.

批評家のレビュー
"This psychologically incisive supernatural novel by Bruzas blends the eerie cadence of dark fairy tales with modern suspense to probe themes of obsession. Sylvie’s unflinchingly self-critical yet deeply empathetic first-person narration captures both the claustrophobic logic of her OCD and the aching vulnerability of a girl desperate to be seen and loved. It all adds up to a sensitive, fully fleshed-out portrayal of one teen navigating grief alongside mental health challenges."
—Publishers Weekly
"Recommended, particularly for readers who enjoy retellings inspired by fairy tales."—School Library Journal
"A mystery that would be at home in the pages of Grimm's fairy tales . . . A complex book that draws you in and keeps you guessing, Bruzas’ latest is perfect for lovers of the creepy, haunting side of fairy tales. Bruzas places old-world magic into a modern context, while empathetically portraying the struggles caused by OCD and disordered eating."—Booklist
"An offbeat . . . darkly intense modern fairy tale."—Kirkus
"In The Broken Edge of the World, Alena Bruzas crafts a sensitive portrait of discovery and self-acceptance, wrapped inside a modern prairie fairy tale. The magic, and the characters, are grounded in the earth of the carefully rendered Nebraska backdrop; despite the tale’s danger, I found it to be a rich and comforting read."
--Kendare Blake, #1 New York Times Bestselling author of Three Dark Crowns
