Synopsis
A strange nightmare, a young woman in a foggy
city and a body buried underneath a bathtub, all converge to force
an ordinary man to investigate a dark, long forgotten past.
A little girl who can see her dead cat, an old blind woman and a
beautiful girl who died too young, unknowingly play a role in a game
in which humanity must survive the death of the flesh.
They don't know what awaits them beyond that meadow, but they are
determined to find out…
CROSSING THE MEADOW guides you into the twilight zone where dead
people brush silently past the living ones and, often without
noticing, affect their fate.
Warning: Your perception of the space around you will never again be
the same!
"...the beauty of Luzzatto's writing
style is that it pulls you along into the story. It makes you turn
the page... No, of course I'm not going to tell you what it is... if
I told you, you might miss out on Luzzatto's exquisite writing.
Dying without knowing why is bad enough. But missing out on this
novel? I'm afraid we deadies can't let you cross the meadow until
you've read it..."
Tyree Campbell - Sam's Dot
