The Museum of Intangible Things
Wendy Wunder
Fiction W96m
Loyalty. Envy. Obligation. Dreams. Disappointment. Fear. Negligence.
Coping. Elation. Lust. Nature. Freedom. Heartbreak. Insouciance.
Audacity. Gluttony. Belief. God. Karma. Knowing what you want (there is
probably a French word for it). Saying Yes. Destiny. Truth. Devotion. Forgiveness. Life. Happiness (ever after).
Hannah and Zoe haven’t had much in their lives, but they’ve always had
each other. So when Zoe tells Hannah she needs to get out of their
down-and-out New Jersey town, they pile into Hannah’s beat-up old Le
Mans and head west, putting everything—their deadbeat parents, their
disappointing love lives, their inevitable enrollment at community
college—behind them.
As they chase storms and make new friends,
Zoe tells Hannah she wants more for her. She wants her to live bigger,
dream grander, aim higher. And so Zoe begins teaching Hannah all about
life’s intangible things, concepts sadly missing from her
existence—things like audacity, insouciance, karma, and even happiness.
An unforgettable read from the acclaimed author of The Probability of Miracles, The Museum of Intangible Things sparkles with the humor and heartbreak of true friendship and first love.
