description: In her third book, Zoë Landale explores the darkened rooms of family myth and history. Focusing on family members from the past—matrons, suicides and brilliant eccentrics—she investigates their lives and the shadowy but potent power they exert over the present. Especially powerful is the description of the earlier women of Landale’s family—strong yet struggling to find their own voices. Burning Stone enacts a journey into the light, the generation of understanding and forgiveness within the family.
