Unable to put herself first, Marmotte\u2019s life is marked by consistent disregard from others. With an uncaring family, distant fianc\u00e9, and trying work situation, Marmotte\u2019s restlessness is drowning her in acute misery, but a work assignment from her boss forces her to change her perspective about things and herself. Reiza\u2019s assured writing vividly retraces Marmotte\u2019s coming of age, making her misery and inner turmoil palpable to the reader. The central conflict: Marmotte\u2019s inability to take a stand for herself, is skillfully executed. Reiza uses Marmotte\u2019s interactions with other characters to explore underlying identity crisis, while also delivering an absorbing life drama. Her storytelling has a lyrical, vague quality to it, and her prose shines, especially in Marmotte\u2019s introspective scenes. The lovers of literary fiction will be rewarded.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span lang=\"EN-US\"><span style=\"color:#000000;font-family:Calibri;\">Note: This title is free on Kindle unlimited.<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-US\"><span style=\"color:#000000;font-family:Calibri;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span lang=\"EN-US\"><span style=\"color:#000000;font-family:Calibri;\">Marmotte&#8217;s Journey <\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span lang=\"EN-US\"><span style=\"color:#000000;font-family:Calibri;\">by mari reiza<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<h4><span lang=\"EN-US\"><span style=\"color:#000000;font-family:Calibri;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Marmottes-Journey-mari-reiza-ebook\/dp\/B01N0MPP55\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Buy now <\/a><\/span><\/span><\/h4>\n<h4><span lang=\"EN-US\"><span style=\"color:#000000;font-family:Calibri;\">Pub date December 2, 2016<\/span><\/span><\/h4>\n<h4><span lang=\"EN-US\"><span style=\"color:#000000;font-family:Calibri;\">ASIN B01N0MPP55<\/span><\/span><\/h4>\n<h4><span lang=\"EN-US\"><span style=\"color:#000000;font-family:Calibri;\">Price $2.78 (USD) Kindle edition, $8.70 Paperback<\/span><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A poignant meditation on finding one\u2019s own voice\u2026 A coming-of-age story, Reiza\u2019s fantastic latest chronicles the journey of a young woman struggling to find her own identity.
