Beatriz Yagoda was once one of Brazil's most celebrated authors. At the age of sixty, she is mostly forgotten - until one summer afternoon when she enters a park in Rio de Janeiro, climbs into an almond tree, and disappears.When her devoted translator Emma hears the news in wintry Pittsburgh, she flies to the sticky heat of Rio. There she joins the author's son and daughter to solve the mystery of Yagoda's disappearance and satisfy the demands of the colorful characters left in her wake, including a loan shark with a debt to collect and the washed-up editor who launched Yagoda's career. What they discover is how much of her they never knew.Exquisitely imagined and as profound as it is suspenseful, Ways to Disappear is at once a thrilling story of intrigue and a radiant novel of self-reckoning.
