"Elsie Marley, my dear" is a novel about the path from loss to recovery, about finding oneself through the loss of oneself. The main character Elsie Marley is forced to stop being who she used to be - a successful business lady, housewife and mother. A loss that turns her world upside down leads her down paths she never would have chosen. But it is they who open up new horizons for her, teach her to look for herself in conditions where it is not so much who you are that matters, but who you can become. Gray, Joslyn interweaves subtle psychological drama with tender moments of transparency and self-discovery, creating a living and vivid world of Elsa Marley, where each story of love and loss becomes a new step on the way to self.
