A mother abandons her family in California to pursue a miracle cure in Munich. Once she gets there however, she wonders if she might have already died. Bedridden with a terminal diagnosis, memories, nurses, immoral doctors, foreign television broadcasts, and phone calls from children intrude upon her consciousness. An aloe plant called Madame Blavatsky is her primary companion.
Bad New Age mother seeks miracle cure in Germany but encounters her past with an aloe plant instead.
Picard, Coco
"The Healing Circle is a far-reaching, honest, and funny novel about dying and living, a kind of pilgrimage to wholeness through uncertainty and disorientation. Full of resonance, it asks what it means to heal, to be in pain, to be a person."
-Amina Cain, author of Indelicacy
"The Healing Circle is wry, subtle, and daring. Coco Picard has written a vivid novel about living, dying, and remembering."
-Meg Wolitzer, author of The Female Persuasion
