Gus Krieger
A moving, whimsical debut love story of ‘what if’ about a grieving widow who attempts to rewrite her past with magical typewriter ribbons to try to save her husband from his unfortunate fate, for readers of In Five Years and Me Before You.
Alone in her snowbound oceanfront cottage, Caroline Ora mourns the loss of her beloved husband Forest, killed earlier that year in a violent hit-and-run. Once a celebrated poet, Caroline now spends her days drowning in grief… until an unlikely discovery changes everything.
Buried deep in her attic in a dusty wooden case, Caroline finds several ancient typewriter ribbons. Spontaneously using one to write a story - a simple “what if” wherein her anguish has loosened its grip - Caroline wakes to find it’s miraculously come true.
Moment by moment, word by word, Caroline sets about rewriting her life, resurrecting her husband through ink and memories. But as the lines between fiction and reality begin to blur, Caroline learns that every wish has its cost, and every miracle has its reckoning.
Riveting, funny and heartbreaking by turns, this is an inventive and unforgettable love story.
批評家のレビュー
“The magnificent Gus Krieger has created a world of possibility and hope. Caroline Ora is grieving her husband–in this violet hour of pain, she decides to rewrite her life story on an ancient typewriter with magic ribbons. Fantastical, original and a balm for readers who seek healing and redemption between the pages of a book.”
—Adriana Trigiani, New York Times bestselling author of The View from Lake Como“In The Seventh Ribbon, Gus Krieger takes readers on an emotional journey into other possible lives, where the heaviest losses can be papered over, every choice has a ripple effect, and our deepest wishes can cost us everything. I devoured this smart, playful, mindbending read!”
