She takes us on a journey from her childhood of tragedy and comedy to the present day and her arrival as one of the worlds best-loved novelists. Whether recalling arguments with her mother in suburban California or introducing us to the ghosts that inhabit her computer, The Opposite of Fate offers vivid portraits of choices, attitudes, charms, and luck in actiona refreshing antidote to the world-weariness and uncertainties we all face today.
