Literary Hub, Best Books of the Decade, A Finalist for the Folio Prize, the Goldsmiths Prize, the Scotiabank Giller Prize, and the Baileys Women's Prize for FictionOne of The New York Times' Top Ten Books of the YearNamed a A New York Times Book Review Notable Book and a Best Book of the Year by The New Yorker, Vogue, NPR, The Guardian, The Independent, Glamour, and The Globe and Mail Chosen as one of fifteen remarkable books by women that are shaping the way we read and write in the 21st century by the book critics of The New York Times Rachel Cusk's Outline is a novel in ten conversations. Spare and lucid, it follows a novelist teaching a course in creative writing over an oppressively hot summer in Athens. She leads her students in storytelling exercises. She meets other visiting writers for dinner. She goes swimming in the Ionian Sea with her neighbor from the plane. The people she encounters speak volubly about themselves: their fantasies, anxieties, pet theories, regrets, and longings. And through these disclosures, a portrait of the narrator is drawn by contrast, a portrait of a woman learning to face a great loss.Binding Type: HardcoverAuthor: Rachel CuskPublisher: Farrar, Straus and GirouxPublished: 01/13/2015ISBN: 9780374228347Pages: 256Weight: 0.80lbsSize: 8.90h x 5.30w x 0.80dAward: Baileys Women's Prize for Fiction - FinalistAward: Scotiabank Giller Prize - FinalistAward: Governor General's Literary Awards - FinalistReview Citations: Library Journal Prepub Alert 08/01/2014 pg. 60Library Journal 10/15/2014 pg. 78Publishers Weekly 10/27/2014Kirkus Reviews 11/01/2014Booklist 12/01/2014 pg. 22New Yorker (The) 01/05/2015 pg. 70Entertainment Weekly 01/16/2015 pg. 66Shelf Awareness 01/23/2015People Weekly 01/26/2015 pg. 54New York Times Book Review 01/18/2015 pg. 22New York Times Book Review 01/11/2015 pg. 10New York Review of Books 04/23/2015 pg. 28NY Times Notable Bks of Year 12/06/2015 pg. 26New York Times Book Review 12/13/2015 pg. 12Booklist Editors Choice/Adult 01/01/2016 pg. 9Library Journal 08/01/2014
