February is Lisa Moore's heart-stopping follow-up to her debut novel Alligator, winner of the Commonwealth Writers' Prize for the Caribbean and Canadian region. Propelled by an area tragedy, where an oil rig sinks in a violent storm off the coast of Newfoundland, February follows the life span of Helen O'Mara, widowed by the accident, as she consistently spirals from present back again to that devastating and transformative winter. After overcoming the hardships of raising four children as an individual parent, Helen's strength and calculated positivity fool everyone into believing that she's pushed through the paralyzing grief of losing her spouse. But in private, Helen has obsessively maintained a robust link with her deceased husband. When Helen's son unexpectedly returns home with life-changing news, her secret world is irrevocably shaken, and Helen is quickly forced to come quickly to terms with her inability to lay the past to rest. An unforgettable glimpse in to the complex love and cauterizing grief that run through our lives, February tenderly investigates how memory knits together the past and present, and pinpoints the very human need to always imagine another, no matter how fragile.
