Her Fearful Symmetry

Book cover
Audrey Niffenegger, a famous author of the extremely successful of The Time Traveler's Wife, publishes his second novel devoted to the life in and around Highgate Cemetery in London. After Elspeth Noblin passes away because of cancer, she passes her apartment in London to her twin nieces, Julia and Valentina who live in America and with who she never met. Julia and Valentina only know that their mother had a twin sister. The girls live in the suburbs of Chicago and are almost like all American teenagers having little interest in college, job or anything else. The abnormal thing about them is that they are oddly attached to one other. Julia and Valentina move to their apartment and find out that now they are neighboring Highgate Cemetery. Closely they get to know other inhabitants of the building. Here they meet Martin, a wonderful and fascinating puzzle settler having crippling obsessive-compulsive disorder, Marjike, Martin's faithful but trapped wife, and Robert, Elspeth's ex-lover who investigate the cemetery. Julia and Valentina realize that Highgate is not fully dead and many things are alive there, perhaps their aunt is alive as well as they feel like she still stays in her apartment. Her Fearful Symmetry is a story about love and life that can continue even after death.
