"Wolitzer has imagined a world for young readers that celebrates the sacred, transcendent power of reading and writing." âThe New York Times Book Review
Thereâs a place where the lost go to be found.
If life were fair, Jam Gallahue would still be at home in New Jersey with her sweet British boyfriend, Reeve Maxfield. Sheâd be watching old comedy sketches with him. Sheâd be kissing him in the library stacks.
She certainly wouldnât be at The Wooden Barn, a therapeutic boarding school in rural Vermont, signed up for an exclusive, supposedly life-changing class called Special Topics in English that focusesâonly and entirelyâon the works of Sylvia Plath.
But life isnât fair. Reeve has been gone for almost a year and Jam is still mourning.
When a journal-writing assignment leads Jam into a mysterious other world she and her classmates call Belzhar, she discovers a realm where the untainted past is restored, and she can feel Reeveâs arms around her once again. But, as the pages of her journal begin to fill up, Jam must to confront hidden truths and ultimately decide what sheâs willing to sacrifice to reclaim her loss.
From New York Times bestselling author Meg Wolitzer comes a breathtaking and surprising story about first love, deep sorrow, and the power of acceptance.
