The Meadow and the Misread

X Parke Penate, a college freshman, realizes she has no memories from before the age of 12 or 13. Determined to understand why, she boards a plane home over winter break to speak with her parents. But her plane crashes, and X Parke is stranded alone in the cold forest. What ensues is a journey--equal parts surreal and hyperreal, epic and interior, esoteric and harrowing, strange and familiar--to uncover the truth about her missing memory.
