About The Author

Elizabeth H. Winthrop was born and raised in New York City. She graduated from Harvard University in 2001 with a BA in English and American Literature and Language, and in 2004 she received her Master of Fine Arts in fiction from the University of California. FIREWORKS, her first novel, was published by Sceptre in 2006. She lives in Savannah, Georgia with her husband, who is a painter, and her St. Bernard, and is currently at work on a third novel.

Winthrop is brilliant at depicting the bewildering world and its assault on the senses of a struggling adolescent . . . This extraordinary novel seduces as it also challenges: curiously provoking and offering small flashes of illumination, like matches struck in that dim and meaningful space on the far side of language.
