America's preeminent fiction writer, The New Yorker, describes "Breathe" as a "raw, propulsive tale of love and grief." The Mail on Sunday praises the novel as a "love and loss story from the bestselling and prizewinning author of Blonde." Michaela and her husband, Gerard, relocate to the breathtakingly beautiful but eerie landscape of New Mexico for an academic residency.

At thirty-seven, Michaela must grapple with the terrifying prospect of becoming a widow and navigate the chaos that ensues in Gerard's absence.
"Breathe" is a haunting and utterly heart-wrenching exploration of the depths of grief. It delves into the intense madness that consumes individuals when they are unable to surrender their love. Gillian Flynn, the author of "Gone Girl," hailed the novel as a "fever dream of a novel."
