书籍简介
这是一部对珀尔塞福涅和得墨忒耳神话的现代重新想象，故事发生在一个郁郁葱葱的私人岛屿上的一个夏天，讲述了家庭和独立，以及谁在现代黑暗势力中掌握着权力。
夏令营辅导员科里·安塞尔，18岁，漫无目的，害怕面对她在纽约紧张的单身母亲，当她的一个露营者的父亲提供了另一个选择时，她不再确定家在哪里。罗洛·皮卡佐是一家《财富》500强制药公司的CEO，中年，离过婚，很有魅力。他也被科里迷住了。当罗洛提供了一份照顾孩子的工作(和一份保密协议)时，科里发出了一个内部警告，并允许自己被送往他的私人岛屿。她的母亲，埃默，一个摇摇欲坠的农业非政府组织的负责人，却有不同的感觉。她的女儿似乎消失了，埃默穿越陆地和海洋去倾听她确信自己听到的呼救声。
雷切尔·里昂的《死亡的果实》在两个女人的视角之间交替，将其神话般的灵感与轻松的触摸和毁灭性的准确结合在一起。结果是一个探索爱、控制、毁灭和美国自己晚期资本主义神话的故事。里昂对珀尔塞福涅和得墨忒耳的故事进行了重新创作，这是一部令人难以忘怀的、令人狂喜的小说，充满了郁郁葱葱的放纵。
An electric contemporary reimagining of the myth of Persephone and Demeter set over the course of one summer on a lush private island, about family and independence, and who holds the power in a modern underworld.
Camp counselor Cory Ansel, eighteen and aimless, afraid to face her high-strung single mother in New York, is no longer sure where home is when the father of one of her campers offers an alternative. The CEO of a Fortune 500 pharmaceutical company, Rolo Picazo is middle-aged, divorced, magnetic. He is also intoxicated by Cory. When Rolo proffers a childcare job (and an NDA), Cory quiets an internal warning and allows herself to be ferried to his private island. Her mother, Emer, head of a teetering agricultural NGO, senses otherwise. With her daughter seemingly vanished, Emer crosses land and sea to heed a cry for help she alone is convinced she hears.
Alternating between the two women’s perspectives, Rachel Lyon’s Fruit of the Dead incorporates its mythic inspiration with a light touch and devastating precision. The result is a tale that explores love, control, obliteration, and America’s own late capitalist mythos. Lyon’s reinvention of Persephone and Demeter’s story makes for a haunting and ecstatic novel that vibrates with lush abandon.
